Global wind turbine tower market: Increase in rotor diameter
The increasing demand for alternative energy sources such as wind power is attributable to the fast depleting fossil fuel reserves around the world. Also, the polluting greenhouse effects of fossil fuels is driving the need for cleaner and sustainable sources of power generation. Wind energy has been identified as a renewable and pollution-free source for generating electricity. The dimension of the rotor and the blades in a wind turbine play a significant role in efficiently extracting energy from the wind, which can be altered by increasing or decreasing the diameter of the rotor based on the speed and direction of the wind.
“The increase in diameter of a wind turbine rotor has a corresponding impact on the power generated by the wind turbines. For the rotor to function effectively a minimum and a maximum speed of wind is required based on which the size of the rotor is chosen. The increase in the size of wind turbine towers and rotor diameters will enhance the power generation capacity of the wind turbines and significantly reduce the infrastructure costs incurred during a project due to the need for fewer wind turbine installations,” says a senior analyst at Technavio for research on power.
