Wind conditions Distribution of full load hours in Europe (80 m hh onshore, 120 m hh offshore Source: EEA, 2008 The best wind conditions in Europe lie on Norwegian and British isles coasts Wind conditions in the coastal areas of Baltics are comparable with those on the coast of Spain and the inland of France and Germany (average wind speed 5.5-6.5 m/s) The most attractive wind areas in Baltics are comparable with those of inland of Denmark, the leading wind energy country in Europe 36
