The report - Global Wind Power Report (2009) - analyzes this industry, starting from the basics to what is driving this industry. The report starts off with a brief overview of the global energy market which contains data on global energy statistics, outlook for the industry, the growing focus on renewable energy worldwide and of course, the potential of wind energy. The report then moves on the discussing the basic technology behind wind turbines. The section looks at component and principles of wind turbines and the various types of wind turbines available today. Further, the report discusses in details the global wind industry with current wind turbine installations, recent industry developments and future prospects of the technology. The report also presents insights into the factors that are encouraging this industry along with challenges that need to be addressed for future growths. A detailed cost analysis is presented to give current and future generation costs and its costs are compared with other technologies.
The report further investigates developments and trends in various countries across the world. In all 23 countries are discussed and for each of these countries, report covers current installation trends, government policy and support, current status of R&D in the country and future projections for the wind capacities in these country. These projections are based on the estimates given by various industry associations. Also provided in the report are brief profiles of 30 leading vendors and developers including - Enercon, Gamesa, GE, Nordex, Siemens, Suzlon and Vestas. The report also presents a study of some recent and important wind power projects across the globe. Total 37 projects are discussed in this report.
