There are three main types of wind: land-based wind, offshore wind, and utility-scale wind. Land-based wind turbines are the most common and are typically erected on open land. Offshore wind turbines, on the other hand, are used in offshore wind farms, usually erected in shallow waters.
[pdf] Currently in Croatia there's a total of 364 wind turbines which generate total of 970.15 MW or electric energy, but with new turbines coming on-line all the time, it is expected that by mid 2020s total installed power will reach 3,200 MW, [5] As of early 2020 Croatia generates around 28.3% renewable energy, Government hopes Croatia could generate around 37.5% renewable energy from wind and solar by 2030 and has adopted new strategy to achieve that target.

[pdf] In 2020, wind supplied almost 1600 of electricity, which was over 5% of worldwide electrical generation and about 2% of energy consumption. With over 100 added during 2020, mostly , global installed wind power capacity reached more than 730 GW. But to help meet the 's goals to , analysts say it should expand much faster – by over 1%. Wind turbines work on a simple principle: instead of using electricity to make wind—like a fan—wind turbines use wind to make electricity. Wind turns the propeller-like blades of a turbine around a rotor, which spins a generator, which creates electricity.
