Global Offshore Wind Transmission Report 2021: Market Size and Opportunities, Existing and Planned Offshore Project, Key Technology Players
Dublin, Jan. 07, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Offshore Wind Transmission Report" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Global Transmission Research Report analyses the market size and opportunity for offshore wind transmission across the globe.
The report provides an overview of the recent policy developments and mandates for offshore wind development, examine the costs and present the various models and technology options for developing offshore wind transmission infrastructure. It provides information on existing and planned offshore transmission projects and on the key technology players in the industry.
Driven by the common goal of achieving low-carbon economies, governments across the globe have set ambitious targets for offshore wind energy. Established markets such the UK, Germany and China have further expanded their offshore wind goals.
New markets such as the US and Japan have launched supportive policy frameworks and funding programmes to accelerate the development of their offshore wind industries. Countries such as Australia, Vietnam and Greece are also keen to capture offshore wind opportunities.
However, the challenge of developing an adequate and robust offshore grid infrastructure still remains. Offshore wind integration and transmission needs have taken a center stage. New technologies and innovative solutions for interconnections have been proposed as projects become larger and complex.
