Floating Offshore Wind Power Industry Segmentation

Floating wind power is electricity made by an offshore wind turbine that is mounted on a floating structure. This lets the turbine make electricity in water depths where fixed-foundation turbines cannot work. Floating wind farms can make a big difference in the amount of sea area that can be used for offshore wind farms, especially in places where shallow water is not available.

The floating offshore wind power market is segmented by water depth (qualitative analysis only) and geography. By water depth, the market is segmented into shallow water (less than 30 m depth), transitional water (30 m to 60 m depth), and deep water (higher than 60 m depth). By Geography, the market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, South America, and the Middle East and Africa. The report also covers the sizes and forecasts of the floating offshore wind market across major regions. For each segment, market sizing and forecasts have been done based on installed capacity.

Floating Offshore Wind Power Market Size Summary

The floating offshore wind market is poised for significant expansion, driven by increasing investments in renewable energy projects and advancements in offshore wind turbine technologies. This growth is expected despite the competitive pressures from other renewable energy sectors. The market is particularly gaining traction in Europe, where there is a strong focus on developing untapped deep-water sites suitable for floating structures. The floating offshore wind turbine technology, especially in transitional water depths, is becoming more commercially viable, with barge-style designs being prominent in shallower areas. These developments are supported by initiatives such as the US Department of Energy's funding opportunities for offshore wind technology research, which promise to enhance the market's growth potential.

Europe remains a dominant force in the offshore wind energy sector, with a substantial share of global installations, particularly in the North Sea region. The region's ambitious targets for offshore wind farm installations, coupled with projects like France's EolMed and Norway's Hywind Tampen, underscore the promising outlook for the market. The floating offshore wind power market is moderately fragmented, with key players like General Electric, Siemens Gamesa, and Vestas Wind Systems actively participating. Recent investments and project approvals, such as Octopus Energy's investment in Ocergy and the Green Volt project in Scotland, further highlight the dynamic nature of the market and its potential for future growth.
