Wind Turbine Blade Materials Market: Introduction
Blades are an important part of a
wind turbine, and these are costly components of a turbine. Wind turbine blades
consists of two faces, one is the suction side and the other is the pressure
side. These are joined together and stiffened by one or several integral webs
linking the upper and lower parts of the blade shell. Blades are vulnerable
parts of a wind turbines as these are susceptible to lightening. Composite
materials are used to manufacture blades of these turbines.
Wind Turbine Blade
Materials Market: Development & Trends
The global
wind turbine blade materials market is anticipated to expand at a rapid
pace during the forecast period due to the rising wind power generation
projects, technology advancement, increasing government subsidies, growing
environmental concerns, and increasing demand for renewable energy. Rise in
investments for and provision of clean energy incentives schemes for the
development of renewable energy is expected to be a major factor driving the
wind turbine blade materials market. Lack of grid infrastructure which leads to
the curtailment of power and lack of skilled labor and capital in certain
countries inhibit the global wind turbine blades material market.
Wind Turbine Blade
Materials Market: Key Segments
The wind turbine blade material
market can be segmented in terms of fiber, resin, manufacturing process, and
region. Based on fiber, the wind turbine blade materials market can be
bifurcated into carbon fiber and glass fiber. The glass fiber segment accounted
for a dominant share of the wind turbine blade materials market in 2017, as
these possess better properties such as, chemical resistance, strength, and
stiffness as compared to carbon fiber. These are also easily available and cost
effective. However, the carbon fiber segment is projected to expand due to its
high stiffness. However, disadvantages of carbon fiber include high costs, low
compressive strength, and high sensitivity to local defects. In terms of resin,
the wind turbine blade materials market can be classified into epoxy, polyester,
and vinyl ester. Demand for epoxy resins is high due to its lower temperature
cure and lower viscosity as compared to other alternatives.

Based on manufacturing process, the
wind turbine blade materials market can be divided into hand lay-up technology,
vacuum infusion, prepreg, and resin infusion technology. The resin infusion
technology can be sub-segmented into resin transfer molding and vacuum assisted
resin transfer molding. Presently, vacuum assisted resin transfer molding is
extensively employed to manufacture wind turbine blades.

Materials Market: Regional Outlook
In terms of region, the global wind
turbine blade materials market can be segregated into North America, Europe,
Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. Based on value and
volume, Asia Pacific dominates the global market.
Asia Pacific is a highly attractive
region for the wind turbine blades materials market due to high demand for
renewable energy sources, rise in demand for lightweight and high strength materials
used in the manufacturing of various parts of wind turbines, and supportive
government initiatives such as favorable policies, wind power development
programs, and government regulations regarding renewable energy. Furthermore,
the market in Europe is estimated to expand at a substantial pace during the
forecast period owing to the increase in wind installation capacity, which is
more than that of any other form of power generation in Europe. India is a
lucrative country for the wind turbine blade materials market, followed by
Spain and Germany. Wind energy installation capacity and investment in wind
energy and onshore wind energy projects have increased in these countries.
Presently, these countries are projected to increase investment in offshore wind
energy projects.
