Luther Rechtsanwaltsgesellschaft mbH, in collaboration with leading energy law firms from 29 European jurisdictions, has conducted a detailed examination of the legal frameworks governing onshore wind projects. On approximately 185 pages, the study offers both individual country analyses and comparative assessments of key legal issues affecting wind energy projects.
In addition to outlining the regulatory framework, the study includes an assessment of the legal certainty of investments in the respective countries. Compiled between November 2023 and January 2025, the study reflects the latest developments across Europe.
What This Study Offers
According to WindEurope, 2023 was a record year for wind energy in Europe. Whether this momentum can be maintained remains uncertain, as further expansion will depend on the effectiveness of EU and national policy measures. The findings emphasize that onshore wind energy still holds significant growth potential, provided that regulatory barriers continue to be reduced.
