Floating Offshore Wind Power Market by Component, Type, Water Depth, Turbine Capacity, Application

List of Tables

The Floating Offshore Wind Power Market was valued at USD 3.14 billion in 2023, expected to reach USD 3.67 billion in 2024, and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 17.53%, to USD 9.74 billion by 2030.

Floating offshore wind power involves the deployment of wind turbines on floating structures that are anchored to the seabed, allowing them to be situated in deeper waters where traditional fixed-foundation turbines are not feasible. This innovation expands the scope of wind energy generation by tapping into the vast, consistent, and powerful wind resources found further offshore, thereby addressing the necessity for cleaner energy solutions and reducing dependence on fossil fuels. Its application is critical in regions with deep waters close to shore and limited space for land-based or fixed offshore wind farms. The end-use scope primarily includes electrical utilities and grid operators seeking to integrate more renewable energy sources to meet regulatory requirements and sustainability goals.
