A New Report
This major new report by energy industry analysts Douglas-Westwood (DWL) examines the current and future prospects, technologies and markets for the offshore wind energy sector.
A Growing Industry
Offshore wind will see $16 billion of capital expenditure in the coming five year period as 4.5 GW of new capacity is installed. With just over 1.1 GW of capacity currently installed, this represents significant market growth and leads to an annual capital expenditure of over $5.2 billion by 2013.
Technology Review
The World Offshore Wind Report provides a comprehensive and fully illustrated review of technologies employed in both existing and future projects including turbines, foundations, cables and associated installation methods. The report provides analysis of the impact of current and new technologies on the industry and identifies the key players in the business.
Industry Issues
Key industry issues are discussed in detail assessing the relative impact of factors such as costs, contracting, financing and supply chain capability - illustrated by market forecast information including cost comparison analysis.
Unique Market Forecasts
Using the same in-depth modeling process that is adopted for other reports in this series, the report presents a five-year market forecast for activity over the 2009-2013 period. Five years historic data is included for comparison.
DWL have five years experience in market modelling of the offshore wind industry. Each proposed offshore wind farm worldwide is assessed to model unique and detailed market information.
