Offshore Wind Energy Market – Industry Analysis, Share, Size, Forecast 2024

Offshore Wind Energy Market: Snapshot

Offshore wind energy is characterized by a number of advantages in comparison to onshore wind energy. Higher wind speeds can be harnessed within offshore environments and this is a prime factor providing impetus to the overall market for offshore wind energy. In this market, cost reductions are seen across the entire value chain, starting from cabling cost, installation expenditures, and turbine costs. The amount of cost reductions taking place in the market between 2014 and 2024 would depend on the predicted annual capacity additions within the offshore wind energy sector. Thus, offshore wind energy technology will have to continuously compete with other types of renewable energy technologies in addition to its own onshore counterpart.

The global offshore wind energy market is predicted to touch 52,120.9 MW in 2024, from 7,045.4 MW in 2013, rising at a remarkable CAGR of 25.0% over the forecast period. In terms of annual installations, the market is predicted to touch 7,228 MW by 2024, starting from 1,629.4 MW in 2013, expanding at a whopping 19.60% CAGR over the forecast period. The growing advantages of offshore wind energy over onshore counterpart will provide impetus to the development of the market for offshore wind energy. In addition, regulatory frameworks and promising incentive mechanisms for offshore wind energy sector are raising investments and fuelling capacity additions. This factor will positively impact the development of the global offshore wind energy market.

Increasing Investor Confidence Due to Growing Utilization of Project Financing to Bode Well for Market 

Furthermore, the growing use of project financing within offshore wind energy projects is predicted to raise investor confidence and will expedite capacity additions, thus driving the overall market. New offshore projects utilizing floating wind turbines are poised to result in numerous project development activities within deep-water locations.
