The floating offshore wind power market is expected to grow from USD 3.9 billion in 2022 to USD 10.0 billion by 2032, at a CAGR of 9.9% during the forecast period 2023-2032.
A floating wind turbine is a form of offshore wind turbine that is supported by a floating base with the majority of its bulk submerged. The mounted construction enables the wind turbine to generate electricity in areas where a fixed foundation would be ineffective. The turbine is attached to the seabed by several mooring lines and anchors. A floating wind turbine can be used anyplace in deep water with a depth of more than 60 meters. Furthermore, unlike onshore wind turbines, floating wind turbines can generate electricity at a consistent rate due to consistent wind flow at the seashore.
A significant increase in demand for renewable energy sources is predicted to drive the growth of the floating offshore wind power market. Furthermore, unlike traditional power sources, floating wind turbines are cost-effective and reduce carbon emissions. Furthermore, floating wind turbine technology eliminates the constraint of water depth, allowing for the best possible location for power generation. For example, Statoil, a Norwegian energy corporation, invested $268 million in its Hywind turbine project in June 2017. The project entailed the installation of floating wind turbines at 78 meters of sea depth off Scotland's northeast coast. Furthermore, floating wind turbines have a higher capacity factor than other onshore wind turbines. This is due to the floating wind turbine's steady electricity generation. For example, the capacity factor for a floating offshore wind turbine is 0.5-0.7, whereas the capacity factor for an onshore wind turbine is roughly 0.25-0.3. The installation of a wind turbine with many mooring lines and anchors, on the other hand, might be costly. Furthermore, during severe storms or hurricanes, the wind turbine may sustain significant damage. Nonetheless, technological advancements in wind turbine structures, such as the "Twisted Jacket" foundation with fewer nodes and components, may provide a long-term solution to heavy storms. The inward battered guiding structure provides a strong and solid framework while also lowering installation costs.
This study delivers a comprehensive analysis of type, application, and region. The type segment includes turbines, floating foundations, anchoring systems, and others. The turbines segment holds the largest market share in 2022. A turbine is a rotational mechanical device that turns energy into practical work. When paired with a generator, the work performed can be used to generate electrical power. The application segment includes shallow water, transitional water, and deepwater. The transitional water segment held the largest market share in 2022. Floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT) technology is more developed in transitional water depths (30-60 m) due to larger water depths and favorable project economics.
The market has been divided into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East & Africa, and South America. Europe holds the largest market share, According to the European Union, Europe accounts for one-quarter of all offshore wind installations globally. The country (mainly North Sea countries) is expected to dominate the floating offshore wind power market. Around 85% of offshore wind installations in the world are located in European waters. The governments of the European Union, notably those in the North Sea region, have set a lofty goal of establishing offshore wind farms in their territorial waters. By 2022, Europe was predicted to have 112 MW of floating offshore wind generation capacity constructed, with the largest markets being the United Kingdom, France, Norway, Ireland, and Spain. Cerulean Winds and Ping Petroleum UK reached an agreement in August 2022 regarding offshore oil and gas projects that would be primarily powered by offshore wind.
Some of the notable players in the market are Siemens Gamesa Renewable, MHI Vestas Offshore Wind, Senvion SA, ABB group, GE Renewable Energy, NORDEX SE, and others.
