At 6.3% CAGR, Middle East & Africa Wind Turbine Composites Market is Projected to be Worth US$ 168.50 Million by 2030, Says Business Market Insights
According to Business Market Insights' research, the Middle East & Africa wind turbine composites market was valued at US$ 103.44 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 168.50 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 6.3% from 2022 to 2030. Increasing length of wind turbine blades and adoption of natural fiber reinforced polymer (NFRP) composites are among the critical factors attributed to the Middle East & Africa wind turbine composites market expansion.
Wind turbine blades generate lift with the help of their curved shape. The rotor blades are designed in such a way that it generates the right amount of rotor blade lift and thrust, which creates optimum deceleration of the air and increases blade efficiency. Wind turbine blades are shaped to extract the maximum power from the wind at a low construction cost. Therefore, wind turbine blade manufacturers are always looking forward to manufacturing a more efficient blade design. Continuous improvements have been initiated in the design of wind blades to generate new wind turbine designs that are comparatively more compact, silent, and capable of producing more power from less wind. This includes increasing the length of blades to improve the efficiency.
The efficiency of the wind turbine is mainly dependent upon the aerodynamic shape and length of the blades, along with the materials used to produce the blades. Wind turbine blades are the most significant yet high-cost component in wind turbines. The use of composite material in blade applications depends upon the strength and stiffness offered by the material, along with low density. By improving the length of wind turbine blades, 7.5% more electricity can be produced in comparison to those smaller blades. Also, many other companies are continuously aiming towards the development of lightweight, cost-effective, and eco-friendly materials for the production of wind turbine blades. This factor is boosting the demand for advanced composite material in wind turbines, which is fueling the market growth.
On the contrary, high dependence of wind energy industry on government subsidies hampers the growth of Middle East & Africa wind turbine composites market.
