The global floating power plant market is expected to grow from an estimated USD 889.6 Million in 2017 to USD 1,440.1 Million by 2022, at a CAGR of 10.11%, from 2017 to 2022. The factors driving the market of floating power plant includes increasing demand for power, coupled with the lack of power infrastructure, benefits over land based power plants (majorly as it eliminates the land acquisition related problems), and energy efficiency mandates and demand for clean energy (renewable energy source).
The report segments the floating power plant market, by power source, into renewable and non-renewable power sources. The non-renewable power segment holds a major share, and this is majorly due to the lack of power infrastructure, coupled with the upsurge in energy demand. The renewable power source segment is estimated to be the fastest growing segment, due to the increasing demand for energy efficiency mandates and demand for clean energy (renewable energy source). Floating solar and wind have seen a rise in installations, owing to its benefits over the land based solar plants and the offshore wind farms. The floating solar energy source consists of key components, such as solar panel and floating structures.
The report segments the floating power plant market, by capacity, into, 1 MW to 5 MW, 5.1 MW to 20 MW, 20.1 MW to 100 MW, 100.1 MW to 250 MW, and above 250 MW. The capacity segment above 250 MW is projected to dominate the market of floating power plant till 2022. The 20.1 MW to 100 MW capacity segment is estimated to be the fastest growing segment, owing to the increase in projects for floating solar and wind.
The report segments the combined (i.e. the renewable and non-renewable) global floating power plant market by region, into, North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the rest of the world. The European region is expected to be the fastest growing segment of the floating power plant industry, as the European region has the highest offshore wind potential and the countries in the region are focusing on energy generation from renewable sources. The market in the rest of the world dominated the market in 2016, owing to the rise in demand from the Middle East and African countries which was closely followed by the Asia-Pacific region. The market in the Asia-Pacific region is projected to dominate the market by 2022, Owing to the rise in renewable floating power plants in countries such as Japan and China.
High capital cost associated with transportation, logistics, and accessibility issues is a key restraint for the growth of the market.
Some of the leading players in the global floating power plant market of floating power plant include MAN Diesel & Turbo SE (Germany), Mitsubishi Corporation (Japan), Wartsila (Finland), General Electric Company (U.S.), Siemens AG (Germany), Caterpillar, Inc.
