Asia Pacific offshore wind cable market size is anticipated to grow at 24.1% CAGR between 2024 and 2032. The ambitious renewable energy targets and commitments to reduce carbon emissions are spurring investments in offshore wind energy projects in the region. For instance, in May 2022, Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners unveiled its 600 MW offshore wind farms at Taiwan's total offshore capacity by about 25% for helping in power transmission and net-zero goals. Countries, such as China, Taiwan, Japan, and South Korea are rapidly expanding their offshore wind resources to meet the growing energy demand in a sustainable manner. Offshore wind pipelines are important infrastructure projects that connect electricity generated from offshore wind farms to onshore wind farms, making it easier to connect electricity with renewable energy around.
Rapid advancements in offshore wind technology and the increasing economies of scale are driving down the cost of offshore wind energy production, turning it more competitive with conventional energy sources. These cost reductions have encouraged governments and private investors in the APAC to increase investments in offshore wind projects, for offshore wind pipelines, further pushing the market growth.
The Asia Pacific offshore wind cable industry is classified into technology, conductor material, and country.
Based on technology, the industry share from the export cable segment is anticipated to witness sustainable growth through 2032 due to its critical role in transmitting electricity generated from offshore wind farms to onshore grids. As countries increase their offshore wind capacity to meet renewable energy targets, the demand for high-capacity exportable cables has increased. These cables are necessary to transmit large amounts of electricity over long distances efficiently while providing reliable and stable power supply.
APAC offshore wind cable market from the aluminum segment is projected to witness significant CAGR from 2024 to 2032, owing to its advantageous properties for marine and offshore environments. Aluminum offers lightweight construction, which reduces the overall weight of offshore wind turbines and makes them easier to install and maintain. The corrosion resistance and durability of aluminum in the marine environment also contributes to the longevity and reliability of offshore wind turbines whilst reducing the need for frequent maintenance and replacement.
Japan offshore wind cable industry will grow significantly between 2024 and 2032, attributed to the strategic initiatives to diversify the energy mix and reduce reliance on nuclear power following the Fukushima disaster. Japan's ambitious renewable energy targets, including plans to significantly increase offshore wind capacity are driving investments in offshore wind infrastructure and related sectors, such as wind lines in the coast. The strong regulatory framework, supportive government policies, and incentives for renewable energy are creating also a favorable environment for domestic and international investments in offshore wind projects across the nation.
