Wind turbine allows to harness the power of the wind and turn it into the electrical energy. Wind energy is one of the most affordable, clean, and readily available renewable energy source. It is considered as the cleanest energy sources of energy and is also one of the alternatives for depleting fossil fuel resources. The major benefit of wind energy is cost certainty as it is one of the cheapest forms of electricity generation. The government is taking initiatives to explore alternative sources of energy, which is beneficial to minimize the dependency on other limited sources such as fossil fuel, oil, and gas.

The technological development to produce more efficient and reliable wind turbines is making wind power more cost-effective. Further, government initiative to discover alternative sources of energy and depleting natural resources of energy drives the global wind turbine market. However, heavy initial investment for the manufacturing and installation of wind turbines hamper the growth of the global wind turbine market.

Onshore wind turbines is the leading type segment, owing to cost benefit over offshore wind turbine, easy installation, and greenhouse gas reduction. Globally, there is a presence of huge onshore wind resources, which could meet global electricity demand. However, despite the higher construction & maintenance cost associated with offshore wind turbine, currently, there is an increase in offshore wind power owing to the availability of space and stable strong wind.

Industrial segment was the leading application segment in 2016 and it is expected to continue its lead during the forecast period. In industrial segment, it is widely used for power generation, engineering & telecommunication, industrial buildings, and ports including many others.
