Vestas manufactures blades in several factories around the world.
The report comprises the historical market size for the period 2013 – 2015 and forecasts for 2017 to 2023 of the global wind turbine composite material market. The global demand of wind turbine composite material has improved in recent years, primarily owing to the funding in wind turbine projects throughout the globe. Furthermore, the advanced quality wind turbine parts are in widespread demand owing to their capability to sustain harsh weather conditions.
Increased investment in renewable energy sources
Emission of greenhouse gases has led to the increased funding for renewable energy sources. Several countries across the globe are profoundly investing on wind farms with European countries leading the way. Europe’s wind farms have taken over coal and became the second largest source for having the capacity to generate power extensively. The wind energy being economical and sustainable has reached far-flung offshore arenas. The countries across the globe are capitalizing heavily in wind farms which are opening up the opportunity for the trade of composite materials in the production of wind turbines.
Furthermore, physical properties of composites when compared with conventional materials such as aluminum and steel are far superior. These materials permit wind turbines to work in facing contrary weather conditions as well as progress the efficacy of wind turbine. The advancement in technology and modifications in design for wind turbine blade have augmented the demand for bigger blades and highly able to produce a great amount of energy. These factors predict the potential of wind turbine, composite-material market, thus driving the market growth at a noteworthy rate.
