Wind Turbine Nacelle Market Scope and Segmentation

Market Definition

Wind turbine nacelle is basically a part of wind turbine where the drive train and other tower-top parts of a wind turbine are housed. It rotates as the wind direction changes because a yaw bearing supports it. For maintenance and repairs, the nacelle must be reachable. Typically, an elevator inside the tower and ladders are used for access.

Wind Turbine Nacelle Market Dynamics

This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail as below:

Drivers

• Abundant Benefits of Wind Energy

Wind energy offers a variety of benefits and is one of the energy sources with the fastest pace of expansion globally, this has a significant economic impact in rural areas because most of the best wind sites are found there. Farmers and ranchers can continue to make a living off of the land because wind turbines only take up a little portion of it. The rent increases landowners' income that farmers and ranchers receive from wind power plant owners for the use of their land. As a result of wind energy's unlimited supply, the industry is expanding more swiftly. Additionally, a large section of the population is employed by it. For instance, over 100,000 people are employed in the United States as wind turbine technicians, one of the professions with the quickest growth rates. As a result, these advantageous qualities ultimately increase demand for wind turbine nacelles, accelerating the market's overall growth rate.

• Acceleration of Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Electricity Source

The wind turbines harness the power of the wind to produce electricity by constructing wind farms in aquatic bodies. This energy-producing technology is one of the most cutting-edge, economic, and environmentally friendly ones. They are larger, can withstand stronger winds, and offer a variety of advantages. The depletion of fossil fuel resources, climate change, and others, the energy sector has also seen a notable shift toward renewable and green energy due to complexities such as the need to reduce carbon emissions. Consequently, these environment-friendly features boost the demand for wind turbine, which directly impacts the market growth over the forecast period.

Furthermore, the usage of renewable energy sources will encourage industry expansion. Additionally, the factors such as rapid urbanization along with the mounting awareness regarding the benefits of using wind energy will further foster the market's growth.

Opportunities

• Mounting Technological Advancements

Furthermore, the technological advancements in the design of wind turbine materials, such as glass composites, to reduce the cost of maintenance and installation will further extend profitable opportunities to the market players in the forecast period of 2022 to 2029. Smaller, less expensive, and simpler to carry and assemble components are built using contemporary glass composites. These parts are additionally simple to install and fix. As a result, installation and upkeep costs are decreased, which will aid the market expansion.

• Numerous Favourable Government Policies

Environment-friendly initiatives by the government are estimated to boost the expansion rate of the market over the forecast period. Governments offer a variety of tax perks and incentives that are lowering component prices, which is predicted to improve the market for wind turbines. As a result, the favorable government policies and regulations associated with greener energy initiatives and the carbon footprint reduction generate various opportunities for the market.

Restraints/Challenges

• Dearth of Technical Expertise

According to analyses of the failure rates of various elements of the turbine, the electrical systems have the highest yearly failure rates of any fixed-base wind turbine component, exceeding 0.5 in some cases with an average downtime of just under two days per failure. This results from many technical problems that also need qualified specialists. Improved analysis techniques for combined wind and wave loading present on FOWT installations, adaptation of current manufacturing techniques to improve the performance of turbine blades, and optimization of power cabling connections for deep water offshore operations all contribute to an increased need for experts and professionals. The lack of technical skills is a significant obstacle to the expansion of the offshore wind business.

• High Overall Costs

The wind turbine nacelle's growth rate is slowed by its high capital cost. Furthermore, there are typically additional logistical challenges associated with wind turbines. The high capital cost of the wind turbine nacelle combined with the maintenance and installation costs, maintenance-related, and transportation costs. As a result, the cost limitations will present another significant challenge to the market expansion for wind turbine nacelles.

COVID-19 Impact on Wind Turbine Nacelle Market

The coronavirus pandemic had an adverse impact on the wind turbine nacelle market. The epidemic greatly hampered the production of wind turbines in countries such as China and Germany, which directly impacted the nacelle wind turbine. For instance, the German business Nordex SE reported negative EBITDA of $86.5 million, down from positive EBITDA of $21 million the prior. The shortage of maintenance workers and spare parts is a significant obstacle preventing the growth of the wind turbine nacelle industry. During the peak wind season, planned maintenance for industrial players became a major issue because of a labor shortage and social distance norms. Project delays and order cancellations have had an effect on the main markets for the installation of wind turbines and the production of blades. Also, due to a shortage of a large labor force and delays in obtaining permits, most of these projects are either at a standstill or postponed until the second half of the fiscal year.

Although the trend toward domestic supply chains may increase domestic wind turbine output, it may also reduce dependency on imports. This will further positively impact the wind turbine nacelle market. Furthermore, putting digitization into practice will enable remote project monitoring, minimizing the workforce as much as feasible. Furthermore, renewable energy has the power to stimulate the economy by creating "green" jobs, ensuring energy security, and enhancing resilience. By including energy transition into the overall recovery strategy, nations can develop the crucial capacity to absorb shocks from pandemics or other disturbances. As a result, it is anticipated that the market will grow quickly employing these strategies post- COVID period.
