Different fields of wind applications
1. Industrialised countriesExisting, sufficient energy supply infrastructureHigh level of energy consumptionOnly little increase in energy consumption==> Substitution of existing capacities, larger grid-connected & offshore installations
2. “Emerging Markets”Often insufficient energy infrastructureHigh increase rates in energy consumption==> New capacities required as well as substitution, all available technologies
3. Non-electrified areasNo energy infrastructureUrgent needs to cover the basic energy requirementsUp to 2 billion human beings affected (600 million in Africa)==> New capacities required, mainly integrated smaller-scaled hybrid systems

Good perspectives for North America :
5600 MW of new capacity in 2007
= 28,5 % of total new capacity worldwide
26 States have renewable portfolio standards - In the following states/provinces feed-in legislation has been initiated:
Ontario, British Columbia, California, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota, Rhode Island, Washington, Wisconsin
And by Congressman Jay Inslee for the USA
Asia: 5250 MW of new capacity in 2007
= 26,7 % of total new capacity worldwide

Only 11 out of 27 EU countries
have increased their additional wind capacity in the year 2007!
16 member states showed stagnation or decreasing markets!
Additional measures will be required
to achieve the necessary accelerated deployment!

Continental challenges:
• Africa: creation of basic preconditions for ongrid and offgrid applications
• America: breakthrough through more community power on the ground
• Asia: sustainable expansion of manufacturing capacities
• Europe: implementation of 20 % RE target for 2020
