Offshore wind energy is the generation of electrical energy by the installation of wind turbines at sea. The wind blows faster and steadily at the sea than on land or onshore areas, that result in more stable and higher yield of energy. The main advantage of the offshore wind energy production is that it contributes to achieve the goal for renewable energy, not consume water and do not emit environmental pollutants or greenhouse gases and helps to reduce the global warming.
Market Dynamics
Major drivers propelling the global growth of the offshore wind market include the rising demand for electricity and increasing awareness about the greenhouse gases. According to the International Energy Outlook 2016, the global energy demand is set to increase from 268 mboe/d in 2013 to 399 mboe/d by 2040. Renewable energy sources are the fastest growing energy sources which in turns drives the global offshore wind market. Government regulations and current policies regarding fossil fuel use, globally energy related carbon dioxide emissions are expected to increase to 45 billion metric tons in 2040, according to U.S Energy Information Administration (EIA), therefore with increase in concerns about the greenhouse gases there is rise is demand for the renewable sources of energy which in turns drives the offshore wind market.
