The report includes a value chain analysis; Porter's Five Forces analysis; and a strength, weakness, opportunity and threat (SWOT) analysis.
Floating offshore wind (FOW) energy is a subcategory of offshore wind energy. Offshore wind energy encompasses all wind farms located in bodies of water, typically the sea. Floating offshore wind energy refers explicitly to wind energy farms where the wind turbines are mounted on floating structures, such as spars or barges, rather than fixed to the seabed with foundations. The floating platform technology allows for wind energy generation in deep water bodies where fixed-bottom turbines are not feasible. Wind energy generation is crucial for the energy transition and is mainly attributed to the ecological damage caused by electricity generation from conventional energy sources, such as fossil fuels and other non-renewable sources.
Market Dynamics and Drivers
The growth of the FOW energy market largely depends on such factors as cost reduction, intensive research and development (R&D), synergy with green hydrogen and regulatory support. FOW energy is expected to follow a strong downward cost trajectory, enabled by larger turbines, higher capacity factors due to better offshore wind resources and economies of scale, as the sector matures. The constant R&D initiatives by various countries are also crucial to achieving significant cost reductions and addressing the challenges of complex installation, maintenance and environmental impacts.
