Data Set

The Student Guide contains the Introduction to Wind – Data Set.
Question 1: Answers will vary. (Example: I chose Germany and India. In 2024, Germany produced 133.44 TWh of wind energy, and India produced 81.57 TWh of wind energy. So, Germany produced 51.87 TWh more wind energy than India that year.)
Question 2: Answers will vary. (Example: Yes, I think that wind energy is growing worldwide, because almost every country on the chart has a line that goes upward from 2010 to 2024, showing that they are making more wind power each year.
Question 3: The total combined 2024 wind energy production of the countries on the chart, minus China, is 813.04 TWh. In 2024, China produced 991.60 TWh of wind power, which is more than all the other six countries combined.
Question 4: Answers will vary. (Example: Some challenges to increasing wind energy is the need for a lot of space and of course, wind! People may be opposed to having wind turbines near their homes, because of the noise, environmental impact, and how they look.)
