Solar and wind electricity demand in Europe during COVID-19 lockdown by country 2020

Published by Ian Tiseo, May 12, 2020
Throughout Europe, many nations saw shares of wind and solar power in their energy mix increase during government imposed lockdowns to halt the spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). The largest share was experienced in Denmark at 65 percent, up from 57 percent the previous year.

Wind and solar power accounted for 23 percent of electricity production in the EU-27 and UK during this period. In comparison, electricity generation from coal dropped significantly.
