If you’re interested in better aligning yourself with an organization that supports global energy decisions you may want to consider tapping into some of the resources offered by the World Wind Energy Association (WWEA) who state their mission as:

  • Providing a platform for the communication of wind energy actors worldwide
  • Advising and influencing national governments and international organizations
  • Enhancing international technology transfer

Additionally, the organization follows five Working Principles to guide their mission:

  1. Wind energy shall serve as one cornerstone and a driving force for the immediate application of a world energy system driven by renewable energies to completely substitute fossil and nuclear sources.
  2. Global dissemination of grid-connected and stand-alone wind energy solutions should rely on experience gained from the most successful implementation strategies, based on favorable legal, political and social framework conditions as initiated by national associations. Local and rural communities and people should be involved and should benefit directly.
  3. WWEA shall stimulate and support the foundation of national and regional wind energy associations and encourage national governments to set ambitious targets and political frameworks for priority strategies in favor of a fast and sustainable development of all renewable energies.
  4. WWEA organizes together with continental, national and regional wind energy associations World Wind Energy Conferences and further international events for mobilizing a wide range of the different wind energy applications.
  5. WWEA plays an active role in the World Council for Renewable Energies and cooperates with further international renewable energy organizations in order to work for a full substitution of all polluting and hazardous waste causing energies.

The organization provides a wealth of information such as an introduction to wind energy technology all the way through to overviews on towers and foundations, and a bookshop that provides pertinent and timely titles for anyone interested in learning more about this emerging and powerful resourc
