Reviewed

Aug 11 2015

This research study has been designed to analyze and estimate the market for offshore wind energy globally both in tenererms of installed capacity (MW) and investments (USD Million). The global market for offshore wind energy has been segmented geographically into four regional segments and nine unique country segments. The regional segments include Europe, Asia Pacific, North America, and Europe.

The nine countries which have been separately addressed in this report are the U.K, Germany, Denmark, Belgium, Sweden, the Netherlands, China, Japan, and the U.S. The market report features an in-depth geographic segmentation along with market growth forecasts for the 2014–2022 period. For this market study, 2013 has been taken as the base year, while all forecasts are for the 2014–2022 period.

This report addresses the key market dynamics impacting the capacity additions for offshore wind energy globally. As a part of our market dynamics analysis, we separately consider and analyze market drivers, market restraints, and market opportunities. The report also provides a detailed analysis of the global offshore wind energy market with the help of Porter's Five Forces model. The Porter's Five Forces analysis aids in understanding the five major forces that affect the industry structure and also impacts capacity additions for offshore wind energy globally.
