Wind Turbine Market Drivers

Regulation and Incentives of Renewable Energy

• Most national governments globally have adopted policies aimed at mitigating climate change and reducing the reliance of humans and their economic activities on fossil fuels. By providing a broad package of incentives to stimulate private and corporate investments in wind energy infrastructure, these policies include feed-in tariffs, tax credits, renewable portfolio standards, and other types of subsidies. All these options create a climate of market development while reducing the costs and risks incurred in the installation of wind turbines.

Advancements in Technology

• Various activities are pursued in the areas of materials science and control systems; aerodynamics of blades, and the general design of turbines. These advances are aimed to improve the competitive position of wind power by maximizing energy capture, extending life spans of turbines, and reducing its operating cost. Advances in blade design optimized forms for more efficient and quieter operations which means turbines can catch more energy at lower wind. The goals of material science improvements will be to develop lighter, stronger materials that enhance the performance and life of turbines.

Wind Turbine Market Restraints:

Technical Challenges of Grid Integration and Intermittency

• As wind resources are inherently intermittent, as variables in wind speed led to inequality in energy generation, it is hard to ensure a steady power output. Since wind power is a variable and unpredictable source, it gives rise to robust solutions for grid integration due to the fact that its regulation becomes comparatively harder. Time of generation of the wind power is another significant cause of concern besides the time of energy consumption. The unpredictability of wind resources heightens supply-demand mismatch that may result in the problems of grid reliability and its instability.

High Initial Investment Cost

• The investment cost to erect a wind farm is thus significantly high as one need to first purchase turbines, prepare the site, erect them, and connect to the grid. At times, the costs outweigh and prevent rapid development of wind energy infrastructure, especially among smaller investors or for places with very limited financial resources. Furthermore, wind energy projects need most of these resources, hence the investment raises financial risks and uncertainties. Some investors get isolated by such high payback periods for the investments, which could run several years or even more than a decade.
