According to the German wind energy association recently issued research, land wind power can supply German electricity demand alone 65%.
Germany only 2% of land area can be used for wind power, fraunhofer calculation, as the current wind power technology, the installed capacity can reach 198GW (27.2 GW compared 2010 the installed capacity, every year can produce 390 kilowatt-hours of electricity).

Germany wind energy association President albers was Herman in to discuss the nuclear energy situation points out: “each year based on the Germany 600 kilowatt-hours of electricity demand, onshore wind power can meet the demand for power is 65%. It reflects the renewable energy technology can easily replace nuclear power, wind power in the German potential energy structure of present the proportion of far more than nuclear power. 2010, nuclear power plants can only provide about 140 kilowatt-hours of electricity.”

Look at Germany’s federal states, research shows, still the slow development in some states wind power potential is the largest, like the Bavarian annual capacity of only 80 kilowatt-hours; Baden baden-wuerttemberg said Monday for 45 KWH annually in capacity. At present, this potential wind power is the main untapped.

Study estimated the power rating of wind turbines device is 3 megawatts, windmill 100-150 meters in diameter, average annual production reaches full hour of 2000.
