Vestas becomes the first company to install 200 GW of wind turbines globally

In mid-December 2025, Vestas reached 200 GW of installed wind turbines globally with the installation of a V172-7.2 MW turbine at ENOVA’s Meppen repowering project in Germany. Achieving 200 GW of installed wind turbines is both a testament to Vestas’ leading position within wind energy solutions and the scale at which renewables is growing in the global energy system.

Vestas was also the first to reach 100 GW of installed wind turbines in 2018. A milestone that was four decades in the making, and in contrast the subsequent 100 GW have been installed in less than seven years, underlining the scale of the energy transition.

Wind energy is secure, affordable and sustainable

Wind energy is secure, affordable, and sustainable, and we are the first to have installed 200 GW of it worldwide.​ For almost 50 years, we have delivered what people have asked for: energy you can count on, energy that helps stabilise prices and reduces our impact on the environment.​​ That need is only growing. Alongside our partners, we will keep delivering the wind energy the world needs.​
