(MENAFN- America News Hour) Offshore wind energy is also known as offshore wind power. It utilizes wind farms constructed offshore or on continental shelves to harvest the energy generated by the wind. The offshore wind systems are constructed in places such as coastal water areas, lakes, fjords, and other types of coastal areas. They utilize conventional wind turbines with fixed bottom technologies. Deep-water areas utilize various types of floating wind turbines.

Market Dynamics
Increasing focus towards the replacement of traditional power sources such as fossil fuels, petroleum sources, etc., in order to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions across the globe will significantly drive the offshore wind energy market. Moreover, the potential of offshore energy is increasing.
According to a study by GWEC, global offshore wind power capacity was nearly 18,814 megawatts (MW), by the end of 2017, and will continue to rise over the coming years. Additionally, favorable regulatory policies towards the optimum extraction of energy from renewable sources will positively sway the market in further.
Increasing focus of the governing bodies to reduce the GHG emissions will open some significant opportunities for the offshore wind energy market to grow over the coming years. According to an announcement by the Chinese government in 2016, they started an action plan to reduce emission level to nearly 18% by 2020.
Escalating prices of electricity, coupled with space constraints for the generation of solar electricity will boost the offshore wind energy market additionally over the coming years. Moreover, increasing positive outlook regarding the integration and development of huge wind turbines, coupled with the technology advancements regarding the blade sizes, and turbine efficiencies will further augment the additional market growth prospects till the end of 2025.
Huge capital costs involved in the setting up of wind turbines for the generation of offshore wind energy market is one of the major factors, which restrains the offshore wind energy
market growth over the coming years.
