Airborne turbines take advantage of this and create more consistent and efficient electricity because the wind is stronger at higher altitudes. Air-borne turbines are a type of wind turbine with a rotor that is kept in the air rather than on a tower, allowing for increased wind velocity and persistence at higher altitudes while avoiding the cost of tower construction and the need for slip rings or a yaw mechanism. Aerodynamic forces are used to displace a generator in order to create mechanical work in air-borne turbines. A tether is used to extend an airborne wind energy turbine into the atmosphere. This approach has the unintended result of capturing kinetic energy from atmospheric winds, which might have climate consequences.
COVID-19 Impact analysis
- Many sectors have been badly impacted by the COVID-19 epidemic. It has brought the manufacturing process to a standstill and resulted in a scarcity of raw resources. The trade cycle was hindered as a consequence of this. As a result, the market for air-borne wind turbines is also impacted.
- Production of Air-Borne Wind Turbine has been halted due to the protracted lockdown in major worldwide countries caused by the COVID-19 epidemic. This has substantially impacted the expansion of the Air-Borne Wind Turbine Market.
Top Impacting Factors
The fluctuating prices of fuel generated from non-renewable sources, favorable government laws, rising demand for energy, and utility-scale generation are the major drivers driving the market for airborne wind turbines. Because wind is a completely free natural gift, authorities are concentrating their efforts on harnessing its energy. Furthermore, after the cost of building and installing turbines is recovered, wind energy technologies usually benefit from little maintenance and the power collected is also extremely cheap. Computer-controlled and portable airborne wind turbines eliminate the requirement for an onboard pilot to operate the turbine mechanism. Most significantly, there are no infrastructure costs associated with building an airborne wind turbine, such as power plants or electrical networks. These have been critical variables that are expected to push the global airborne wind turbine market forward. There are several constraints and obstacles that will stifle overall market expansion. Lack of a qualified personnel, as well as a lack of norms and regulations, are restricting the market's growth. Furthermore, harvesting wind energy from high altitudes has its own set of problems and risks, including the possibility of unanticipated accidents, necessitating automated control piloting for further safety.
Market Trends
- Vestas has created a solution that includes eight V136-4.2 MW turbines and a long-term service contract to maximize energy output over the project's lifetime in a high wind region. The turbine is well-suited for the severe climatic conditions that are typical along Norway's western coastline, with a strong design for tough wind locations.
- Three new grid analytics from GE are launched, combining domain expertise with artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to address critical issues in electric grid operations. The analytics leverage data from across transmission and distribution networks to accomplish operational efficiency goals.
