由于风光互补的机制，欧洲各国风能发电量在2月均接近全年峰值水平。
2022年2月欧洲风能发电量TOP10国家总发电量44.8 kGWh，环比增长15.5%，占比欧洲当月风能发电总量的88.9%。
德国2月风能发电达到全年峰值20.6TWh（1TWh=1000GWh），首次突破20TWh，占比当月全德77%的可再生能源发电量，以及当月全欧40.9%的风能发电量，超过第2-5名风能发电量之和。
然而，德国风能起步并不算早，1983年德国才在北海Kaiser-Wilhelm-Koog开始投入运营首个大型风力发电设备“Growian”，然而由于技术结构问题上的错误，该设备5年后就被彻底停机拆除。直到2010年，德国第一个真正意义的海上风电场Alpha Ventus才投入运营。
在德国之后的9个国家差距并不明显，其中法国以4.6TWh，西班牙以4.4TWh的风能发电量分别排在第二和第三。其余的如瑞典、波兰，丹麦等国均在1TWh到4TWh的区间里。
Top 10 European countries with Wind Power Generation in February 2022
Due to the complementary system of wind and solar energy, wind power generation in various European countries approached their annual peak levels in February.
In February 2022, the top 10 countries in Europe had a total wind power generation of 44.8 kGWh, an increase of 15.5% month on month, accounting for 88.9% of the total wind power generation in Europe that month.
In February, wind power generation in Germany reached its annual peak of 20.6 TWh (1 TWh=1000 GWh), breaking through 20 TWh for the first time, accounting for 77% of renewable energy generation in Germany and 40.9% of wind power generation in Europe that month, surpassing the sum of wind power generation ranked 2-5.
However, wind power in Germany did not start early. It was only in 1983 that Germany began operating its first large-scale wind power equipment, the “Grovian”, in the Kaiser Wilhelm Koog area of the North Sea. However, due to technical structural errors, the equipment was completely shut down and dismantled five years later. It was not until 2010 that Germany’s first truly offshore wind farm, Alpha Ventus, was put into operation.
The gap is not obvious among the nine countries after Germany, with France ranking second and Spain third with wind power generation of 4.6 TWh and 4.4 TWh, respectively. Other countries such as Sweden, Poland, and Denmark are all within the range of 1TWh to 4TWh.
