In 2012 Norway had a electricity production of 1.6 (5.8 ), a small fraction of its total production. The following year it approved spending 20 billion NOK to triple its wind power capacity of ca. 700 MW to more than 2 GW by 2020. In August 2016 construction of the 1 GW project began. New projects increased capacity to 2.4 GW and production to 5.5 TWh in 2019. Increased producti.
