Installation Results of Wind Power Generation in FY 2009: 2,186 MW, 1,683 Wind Turbines

Installation results in FY 2008 was posted on July 20, 2009, however, we inform you of the installation results in FY 2009 (according to JWPA).

Although the amount of installations in FY 2007 decreased to one-half or less of FY 2006 due to the influence of revised Building Standard Act, a gradual recovery trend has started and is less affected. However, the achievement of 3 GW in FY 2010 is desperate.

        Cumulative     Increased amount of singly-year installations
  FY 2005  1,085 MW 1,059 units   159 MW  139 units
  FY 2006  1,490 MW 1,318 units   406 MW  259 units
  FY 2007  1,675 MW 1,414 units   184 MW  96 units
  FY 2008  1,883 MW 1,536 units   209 MW  102 units
  FY 2009  2,186 MW 1,683 units   303 MW  147 units

It is expected that New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO) will announce the 2009 installation results by the end of July. However, the figures might be slightly different from those investigated by JWPA due to the difference in the operation start month of newly installed machines or operation termination month of removed ones.
