Global Wind Day
Date to be observed: 15Th June
2017
Global Wind Day is
a worldwide event that occurs annually on 15 June.
It is organized by EWEA (European Wind Energy Association)
and GWEC (Global
Wind Energy Council). It is a day when wind energy is
celebrated, information is exchanged and adults and children find out about
wind energy, its power and the possibilities it holds to change the world. In
association with EWEA and GWEC, national wind energy associations and companies
involved in wind energy production organize events in many countries around the
world. In 2011, there were events organized in 30 countries, on 4 continents.
Events included visits to onshore and offshore wind farms, information
campaigns, demonstration turbines being set up in cities, wind workshops and a
wind parade. Many events happened on Global Wind Day (15 June) itself, but
there were also events on the days and weeks before and afterwards. In 2012
there were 250 events around the globe and a very popular photo competition.
All the best
