Report Code : A10536
The global wind energy market is heading toward an expansion phase. This is attributed to surge in demand for renewable power sources across the globe. In addition, rise in concern from governments across emerging nations, such as China, India, and South Korea, regarding zero emission norms is further expected to drive the market growth.”

According to a new report published by Allied Market Research, titled, Global Wind Energy Market by Type and End-User: Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2020–2027”, the global wind energy market size was valued at $62.1 billion in 2019, and is projected to reach $127.2 billion by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 9.3% from 2020 to 2027.
Wind energy, a type of renewable energy, is used to generate electric energy from kinetic energy source. Wind turbine converts the wind energy into mechanical energy, which is further converted into electrical energy through generator. Wind energy can be generated at offshore and onshore. Onshore wind energy is associated with onshore turbines that are located on land, whereas offshore wind turbines are found in ocean or sea.
Growing concern from government across the globe regarding renewable power source is anticipated to boost the wind energy market growth. However, the offshore wind turbine is more efficient than onshore turbines. As the offshore floating structure can harness wind resources even at deep water level, it is more effective in narrow continental shelf region with sea water depth more than 200 meter. In addition, such wind turbine can decrease the cost of energy production more than that of conventional energy sources in case of long-term business. For instance, the present levelized cost of energy (LCOE) for wind turbine in Europe is around $220-$245, which is expected to reach $50-$73 by 2030.
Based on type, offshore wind energy emerged as the market leader. This is attributed to higher capacity factor than that of onshore wind turbines. Offshore wind turbine has high-capacity factor, due to consistent wind flow at sea shore.
Based on end-user, the industrial segment garnered highest revenue share, owing to increase in demand for renewable power sources. Growing prominence of renewable and sustainable power sources across the globe will positively impact the market growth. Moreover, wind energy has significant demand in rural and isolated areas where grid power is not available.
Europe accounted for the highest market growth during 2020-2027. This is attributed to rise in investments in countries such as France, the UK, and Norway. Moreover, presence of major manufacturers in countries such as France, Germany, and Norway will further propel the growth of the wind energy market in projected timeframe.
Major players have adopted acquisition, agreements, and partnership to sustain the intense market competition. Some of the key players profiled in the wind energy market report include Siemens General Electric, Enercon GmbH, Vestas Wind Systems A/S, Exelon Corporation (EXC), NextEra Energy, Inc., American Electric Power Company, Inc., Xcel Energy Inc., Avangrid, Inc., and Ameren Corporation.
