Lack of EU ambition could lead to 132,000 fewer wind jobs

Europe’s wind industry risks missing out on €92bn of future investments and 132,000 potential jobs by 2030 unless policymakers become more ambitious, according to a report published today by WindEurope.

Job growth in the industry has flatlined in the past five years as many countries have become less ambitious on renewables with half the EU member states investing nothing in wind last year.
