So “Rif” is right. This figure has been climbing pretty fast (it was 0,5% in 1997) and is gonna climb much more if you consider this : http://tinyurl.com/lnrl2y

Truly amazing, they are…

It is better than that. Germany get more than 6% of its electricity from wind.

The Alpha Ventus offshore wind farm is up and running but it is not completed. You can follow the construction on a camera. In the left side of the view there are 3 bases for new wind turbines that was installed a week ago by world biggest crane ship.

Alpha Ventus is important because it is placed far off-shore 45km, much further than any other off-shore wind farm which typically is placed 10-20km off-shore. Alpha Ventus also uses the largest wind turbines in current production, each 5MW.
