According to Business Market Insights research, the Middle & East Africa wind turbine lubricant market was valued at US$ 2.71 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 4.13 million by 2028, registering a CAGR of 7.3% from 2022 to 2028. Rising focus of manufacturers on developing bio-based lubricants is the critical factor attributed to the Middle & East Africa wind turbine lubricant market expansion.
In recent years, there has been an increasing interest among manufacturers to produce lubricants from bio-based sources. The use of biodegradable lubricants helps to avoid disastrous consequences in the case of accidental spillages. Oil leaks from wind turbines pollute the soil and water. In wind turbines, many lubricants such as oils and greases are based on mineral oils that cause pollution if they leak. If these lubricants are leaked into the sea, the clean-up process is challenging. However, oil leaks can be avoided by using bio-based lubricants, as they cause no pollution and degrade naturally if they leak. Lubricants are required in various applications in a wind turbine, such as in bearings, couplings, and gears, as well as in hydraulic systems. In these components and systems, the use of effective alternatives with low environmental impact, such as bio-based lubricants with a wide temperature range, ensures reliable operation. The use of bio-based lubrication products for wind turbines is beneficial in the analysis of environmental consequences. As a result, manufacturers are focusing on developing reliable products with an extended service interval and a low ecological footprint. Hence, the development of bio-based lubricants is expected to fuel the wind turbine lubricants market growth during the forecast period.
