The European Wind Day is going global in 2009. On 15 June five continents will be united by events, conferences, parties and contests celebrating and promoting this clean, infinite, no-fuel energy source. To initiate the six month run-up to the event, a wind energy themed photo contest and an all-new website are being launched today.

The European Wind Association (EWEA) is organising the second edition of the European Wind Day to take place on 15 June across 18 countries. Wind power experts explaining the benefits of this clean and renewable energy source, demonstrations of how wind turbines work and discussions about why we need to develop wind energy to turn the climate and energy crisis into an opportunity, are just a few of the activities during this wind information day.

"The European Wind Day is designed to raise awareness of the huge benefits that come from harnessing this unlimited energy source and highlight its popularity amongst the general public", said Christian Kjaer, EWEA's Chief Executive. This year, the campaign focus has shifted from a day of celebration to a day of information, enabling citizens to know more about wind energy common misconceptions like being highly subsidised, expensive, unreliable and harmful to the environment.
