JWPA announces the installed capacity of wind power generation in Japan as of the end of December 2020.
They are surveyed by the JWPA.<\/p>\n

The cumulative installed capacity at the end of December, 2020
= 4,439 MW, 2,554 units
Net new installation for 2020 (January-December)
= 516 MW, 166 units, 20 sites<\/p>\n

The annual new installation has increased about 1.9 times from 270 MW in 2019.
It is the maximum annual installation in wind power history in Japan.<\/p>\n

As for offshore wind, Japanese government has announced new aggressive target,
10GW by 2030 and 30GW-45GW by 2045, on 15 Dec 2020
