9、he objectives of the Paris Agreement calls for us to halve global greenhouse gas emissions by 2030.Thats less than seven years to replace swathes of high-emission technologies with zero-or low-carbon alternatives.In terms of energy,this means leaving behind a traditional system designed around fossi

10、l fuels and installing a new one as fast as we can.Aiming for 61%of total electricity generation to come from renewables by 2030,the IEA estimates that renewable energy capacity will have to triple,and that most of this growth is to come from wind and solar PV.1Scaling up renewable energy is key to

11、the energy transition.Beyond the installation of renewable power,this also means installing transmission lines,building grids and storage solutions,and rolling out technologies that enable system flexibility.Delivering to this demand requires stronger supply chains across the renewables industry jus

12、t at a time when supply chains are threatened by inflation,rising interest rates,geopolitics and bottlenecks.Investments in wind in 2022 decreased in Europe,the Americas,the Middle East and Africa.The only exception was the Asia-Pacific region.This marks a paradox during a period when various crises

13、 are disrupting energy security and climate deadlines are drawing closer.Wind energy has never been more needed:it builds energy security,lowers the cost of electricity and supports decarbonisation.Last years investment trends exemplify how faster political action is now critical.This year is crucia

18、ition technologies while increasing protectionism would come at a huge cost to industries and societies.It is time for governments to realise that serious climate change mitigation and sustainable energy security go hand in hand.Governments must also accept that a thriving renewables industry is the

19、 first step to addressing both.Decarbonisation is too big a challenge for one country or region alone to overcome:only by working together can we unlock the acceleration needed to achieve a clean energy transition.GWEC and its members have an important role to play in supporting sound policies,colla

20、boration and action.I look forward to doing just that.Word from the ChairmanMorten DyrholmChairman,Global Wind Energy Council1.https:/www.iea.org/reports/world-energy-outlook-2022GWEC|GLOBAL WIND REPORT 2023 3The coming years will mark a crucial transition period for the global wind industry.Later t

21、his year,wind energy will reach the historic milestone of 1 TW of installed capacity.It has taken us around 40 years to get here.However,the next TW will take less than a decade.The energy and climate policies now being pursued by the worlds largest economies in both the West and the Global South po

22、int to a whole new level of ambition and support for wind energy and renewables.These policies are likely to take us to 2 TW of installed wind energy by the end of 2030.They are the consequence of growing urgency in the fight against dangerous global heating;prolonged high fossil fuel prices and the

23、 impact of fossil fuel dependence on security;and the success of our industry in scaling up and establishing wind as one of the most cost-competitive and reliable power sources in the world.While the industry pushed through the new level of 100 GW of annual installations in 2021,the last few years h

24、ave not been without their challenges.Many of the manufacturers at the heart of the industry have seen mounting financial losses caused by race to the bottom pricing,as a result of misguided government policies around procurement and offtake arrangements,exacerbated by higher inflation and logistics

25、 costs.Meanwhile,wind projects have been delayed or stalled by inadequate and inefficient permitting and licensing rules,from Denmark to India to Japan and beyond.This has created the bizarre paradox of energy markets rewarding fossil fuel companies with record profits,while renewable energy compani

26、es have struggled to break even.As this report shows,while companies have regrouped to adapt to the new inflationary pressures,the market has stalled,and the industry installed only 77.6 GW in 2022.All this has come at a time when policymakers are racing to address the energy and climate crises by d

27、ramatically increasing their targets for wind energy across the world.The situation,however,is about to change and 2023 will mark the start of a decisive turnaround.Governments of all the major industrialised nations have enacted policies that will result in a significant acceleration of deployment.

28、In the US,the Inflation Reduction Act has completely changed the rule book for both onshore and offshore wind,while in the EU,policymakers are racing to introduce new rules and regulations to enable the huge increase in deployment that the REPowerEU plan foresees.In China,unstoppable momentum behind

29、 the energy transition continues,and the end of COVID-19 restrictions will see the return of faster economic growth.Large emerging market economies such as Vietnam and the Philippines are enacting new plans for wind,the sleeping wind power giant of India seems set to pick up the pace,and Brazil will

30、 continue to establish itself as a wind energy powerhouse.By 2024,GWEC expects onshore wind to pass the 100 GW annual installations mark,while offshore wind will install more than 25 GW in a single year for the first time in 2025,and installations will accelerate rapidly after that.Market conditions

32、ions and the most efficient regulators.For power equipment and this includes key commodities such as copper and rare earth elements(REEs),power transmission equipment,wind turbines and offshore installation vessels market dynamics are likely to change from buyers to sellers markets as supply chains

33、struggle to keep up with demand.According to the data in this Global Wind Report 2023,spare capacity in the wind energy manufacturing industry is likely to disappear by 2026.For some inputs and in some regions,the squeeze will be felt before then.Both Europe and the US are facing the risk of supply

34、chain shortfalls,and these could be worsened by policies aimed at reshoring manufacturing away from China and protecting local industry and jobs.As this report shows,while creating more diversity and resilience in the supply chain is an important and necessary objective,decision makers will have to

35、design policy very carefully to make sure that it allows the fair exchange of essential inputs for the energy transition,fosters innovation and keeps costs from rising unnecessarily.In order to ensure that the wind industry is able to meet the expectations of policymakers and society at large,it is

36、essential that we start investing in new capacity and plant,and in training and skills,right now.Otherwise,we run the risk that we will not be able to deliver our promises,policymakers will turn to other,less efficient alternatives,and society will fail in its climate goals.This may sound counterint

37、uitive in an environment where companies have found it difficult to keep their businesses viable,but it is a challenge we cannot ignore.Thankfully,the sectors leaders can see the opportunity ahead,and companies are already investing despite the highly unfavourable conditions of the last few years in

38、 new manufacturing facilities,from South Korea to the US to Poland.Much more is needed,and fast.The wind industry will need to forge new partnerships with governments,cities,communities,investors and customers in order to enable the next era of growth.Working together,we can put into place the right

39、 policies,which will allow trillions of dollars in investments to flow and the creation of millions of jobs.As a starting point,we need to leave the hesitancy of the past behind and adopt a new mindset in our industry.The wind industry is no longer the hobby sector of forty years ago.Our technology

40、is resilient and mature,and is poised to play a unique role in the energy transition.Now,in order to deliver on the promises we have made,we need a confident wind industry that is capable of moving boldly ahead.ForewordThe wind industry will need to forge new partnerships with governments,cities,com

41、munities,investors and customers in order to enable the next era of growthGWEC|GLOBAL WIND REPORT 2023 5ForewordIn Brazil,we are living in a time of great excitement and renewed hope in our potential and in the future.The new government of President Luiz Incio Lula da Silva is resuming work on key i

42、ssues that were abandoned in recent years,such as the fight against climate change,protection of the environment especially the Amazon and the reduction of social inequalities.These are matters dear to the wind sector,which positively impacts society from an environmental,social and economic point o

43、f view.The Brazilian wind power revolution has been under way for some years now.The industry achieved 25.6 GW of installed capacity in 2022,with wind energy now holding a firm position as one of Brazils strongest energy generation sectors.In addition to the continued growth of onshore wind,we have

44、great expectations for the development of Brazilian offshore wind.IBAMA,the Brazilian Institute for the Environment and Renewable Natural Resources,has already received project proposals for more than 170 GW of offshore wind energy.This number is equivalent to practically the entire Brazilian electr

45、icity matrix and shows the extent of investor appetite and the enormous potential for offshore wind in Brazilian waters.There is not enough demand for that amount of electricity,however.Thats where green hydrogen comes into play.Coupling this technology with the enormous potential for offshore wind

46、could consolidate Brazils standing as a renewable energy superpower building on its already advanced wind energy supply chain and wider industrial and maritime capabilities.The renewable resources available in Brazil,especially its abundance of quality wind both onshore and offshore,are certainly un

47、ique in the world.This opens a window of opportunity for the production of green hydrogen,which would have the capacity not only to revolutionise Brazils energy matrix already one of the most renewable in the world but also to export green hydrogen to other countries that may not be able to produce

48、all the renewable energy they will need to meet their energy transition goals.Brazilian companies and state governments have taken important steps towards the creation of a green hydrogen sector for the country,including agreements to invest more than 200 billion USD.In January,EDP produced its firs

49、t green hydrogen molecule in Brazil and Unigel will have its first hydrogen and green ammonia production plant in commercial operation by the end of 2023.From 2050,according to the consultancy Roland Berger,Brazil could derive annual revenues of 150 billion BRL from green hydrogen,of which 100 billi

50、on BRL would come from exports alone.1What we are seeing,therefore,is an industry that is already here and ready to grow rapidly,especially considering the opportunities for domestic demand.Currently,Brazil uses fossil-fuel hydrogen in its fertiliser,refining,chemical,food and metallurgy industries.

51、Replacing this with green hydrogen would allow decarbonisation and net zero in many Brazilian industry sectors to become a reality.We know this is a long road,but we are also certain that we are on the right track.The Brazilian wind energy revolution is already here for all to see and will continue

52、to gain strength.It is just a matter of time and dedicated work by the government,investors,companies and professionals in the sector.Lets all work together to continue putting the wind in Brazils sails.Brazils wind power revolutionElbia GannoumPresident of ABEElica,Brazils wind energy and new techn

54、and onshore wind,there are tremendous accomplishments already achieved.The transformation of steel into the key components of the energy transition is already well under way,supported by record new investment commitments.From new steel plant capacity,planned or already online,to pipe mills,shipyards

55、 and regional fabricators around the world,these new industry investments are driving one of the most rapid global industrialisation periods we have seen.The outcome of this process will enable the world to build and install turbines,towers and foundations(fixed-bottom and floating)of immense size,n

57、hort of what is required for the global industry to hit installed capacity targets.The supply chain of the future needs rapid expansion in line with the ambitions of its main stakeholders.This is why GWECs Global Wind Report 2023 is even more crucial,highlighting a number of key actions necessary in

58、 both the short and long term.While there are many pieces of encouraging news across the global supply chain,there are also several practical challenges to overcome if we are to accelerate capacity to meet the installed targets forecast around the world.As a key global supplier who supports the enti

59、re fabrication supply chain of assets and infrastructure,Lincoln Electric sees the global industry through a unique lens.Key to unlocking the full capacity of the supply chain is innovation,together with new installation methods,designs and advanced technology that can drive the profitable success o

60、f the industry.Additionally,the continuous development of a highly skilled workforce will be critical,as well as the implementation of higher levels of automation solutions,which can reduce project hours and overall costs.Todays industry leaders know that new technologies for steel transformation wi

61、ll play a critical role in profitability,particularly in welding and cutting,which continues to be at the core of the expanding global wind industry.Lincoln Electric and other critical supply chain businesses are leveraging decades of industry expertise and experience to innovate and solve these cri

62、tical challenges through two key drivers:technology and higher involvement in workforce training and development.Together,these critical initiatives will advance the growing global needs for a highly skilled workforce that can support the ambitions of industry and countries around the world.Building

65、of wind power capacity was added last year,the lowest level in the past three years but still the third highest year in history.This was achieved despite a challenging economic environment and a disrupted global supply chain,compounded by global health and energy crises.Market status Globally,77.6 G

66、W of new wind power capacity was connected to power grids in 2022,bringing total installed wind capacity to 906 GW,a year-on-year(YoY)growth of 9%.The onshore wind market added 68.8 GW worldwide last year,with China contributing 52%.Additions were 5%lower than the previous year.The slowdown in Latin

67、 America,Africa&the Middle East is partly responsible for the decline,but the primary reason is falling installations in the US.Despite finishing the year with a strong final quarter,the US wind industry commissioned only 8.6 GW of onshore wind capacity in 2022,due in part to supply chain constraint

68、s and grid interconnection issues.Thanks to record installations in Sweden,Finland and Poland and recovering installations in Germany Europe performed well in a volatile 2022,adding a record 16.7 GW of onshore wind capacity and bringing its market share up to 24%.Onshore wind additions in North Amer

69、ica last year fell by 28%while new additions in Asia-Pacific(APAC)remained constant,but the three regions combined still made up 92%of global onshore wind installations in 2022.8.8 GW of new offshore wind was fed into the grid last year,bringing total global offshore wind capacity to 64.3 GW by the

70、end of 2022.New additions were 58%lower than the bumper year of 2021 but still made 2022 the second highest year in history for offshore wind installations.China continued to lead global offshore wind development,although its new installations dropped to 5 GW from 21 GW in 2021 a record year driven

71、by the end of the feed-in tariff(FiT).Two other markets reported new offshore wind installations in APAC last year:Taiwan(1,175 MW)and Japan(84 MW).No intertidal(nearshore)wind projects achieved commercial operation in Vietnam in 2022,due to the ceiling price to be used by Vietnam Electricity(EVN)to

72、 negotiate PPAs with investors for their renewable projects missing until January 2023.Europe connected the remaining 2.5 GW of capacity in 2022,with France and Italy each commissioning their first commercial offshore wind projects.Despite the rate of installations last year being the lowest since 2

75、utlookThe unprecedented twin challenges of ensuring secure and affordable energy supplies and meeting climate targets have propelled wind power development into an extraordinary new phase of ever faster growth.After a challenging year,the global wind market is ready to bounce back in 2023,exceeding

76、100 GW for the first time.With a double-digit growth rate of 15%,the mid-term outlook for wind energy looks very positive.GWEC Market Intelligence expects that 680 GW of new capacity will be added in the next five years.This equals more than 136 GW of new installations per year until 2027.We believe

77、 there are five pillars that will underpin this level of success in the next five years:l Europes renewed urgency to replace fossil fuels with renewables to achieve energy security in the aftermath of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.l A strong uplift for renewable energy in the US over the next ten

78、years,primarily driven by the Inflation Reduction Act(IRA).l Chinas commitment to further expanding the role of renewables in its energy mix,aiming for renewable energy to contribute more than 80%of total new electricity consumption by the end of the 14th Five-Year Plan(2021-2025).l Governments full

79、y waking up to the opportunities that offshore wind can provide,making offshore wind truly global and increasing ambition in mature and developing markets.l Strong growth in large emerging markets both onshore and offshore from the middle of this decade.The CAGR for onshore wind in the next five yea

80、rs is 12%.Expected average annual installations are 110 GW,with a total of 550 GW likely to be built in 20232027.Growth in China,Europe and the US will be the backbone of global onshore wind development in the next five years.Altogether,they are expected to make up more than 80%of total additional c

81、apacity in 20232027.The global offshore wind market is expected to grow from 8.8 GW in 2022 to 35.5 GW in 2027,bringing its share of total new global installations from todays 11%to 23%by 2027.In total,130 GW of offshore wind is expected to be added worldwide in 2023-2027,with expected average annua

82、l installations of nearly 26 GW.Beyond 2027,we expect the growth momentum to continue as global commitments to net zero,coupled with growing energy security concerns,have already brought the urgency of deploying renewables to the top of the political agenda.Compared with the 2030 global outlook rele

83、ased alongside last years Global Wind Report,GWEC Market Intelligence has increased its forecast for total wind power capacity additions for 20232030 by 143 GW(YoY growth of 13%).The revised growth rate will only achieve 68%of the wind power capacity required by 2030 to stay on track for a net zero/

85、essing challenges such as permitting and market design.The twin challenges of secure energy supplies and climate targets will propel wind power into a new phase of extraordinary growthGWEC.NET 10Policy summaryBy mid-2023 GWEC anticipates wind energy to achieve the highly symbolic milestone of 1 TW i

86、n operation.And the 2 TW mark is expected to arrive by 2030,closing a decade of tumultuous acceleration.The sector has changed beyond recognition over the past four decades.Long gone are the days of wind installation clusters in a handful of European countries and a few US states.Wind power has a gr

87、owing presence in tens of countries worldwide.The surge of offshore wind and innovative technologies such as floating foundations promise to deliver large amounts of wind energy in locations where its deployment would have been unimaginable until very recently.The stakes could hardly be higher for w

88、ind energy as the world strives to emerge from the polycrisis of post-pandemic recovery,inflationary pressures,a war in Europe and growing climate impacts.But all the signs point to a sharp turnaround this decade,and it is starting now.A sluggish 2022 saw only 77.6 GW of additional wind capacity ins

89、talled globally 17%lower than the previous year but still the third highest year in history for additions.Offshore additions,at 8.8 GW,were less than half the 21 GW clocked in 2021,and yet the second highest volume ever.Despite the relatively positive wind installation numbers,2022 was the year when

90、 a perfect storm of race to the bottom pricing caused by misguided government policies,higher logistics costs and project delays due to inadequate permitting rules created the bizarre paradox of energy markets rewarding fossil fuel companies with record profits,while renewable energy companies strug

91、gled to break even.Change has altered the dynamics of the wind industry too.From an early obsession with demonstrating reliability to an unrelenting drive to cut costs,the wind industry now needs a laser-sharp focus on ensuring that it can deliver the ambitious installation targets required of it.Re

92、newables will dominate installationsUnder all credible scenarios,renewable energies will dominate installations over the coming years.The IEA forecasts that nearly all of the additional electricity generated between 2022 and 2025 will come from renewable energy sources.Alongside solar,wind will rema

93、in a leading source of renewable power.By 2024,GWEC expects onshore wind to pass the 100 GW annual installations mark,while offshore wind will install more than 25 GW in a single year for the first time in 2025.Installations will accelerate rapidly after that,driven by most countries ambitious green

94、 energy and climate targets.GWEC forecasts that 680 GW of wind capacity will be installed globally by 2027,of which 130 GW will be offshore.The Story:the wind industry gears up for the coming accelerationGWEC|GLOBAL WIND REPORT 2023 11Policy summaryAs our heat map(see page 82)shows,there are still t

95、ens of countries where wind power development is being held back by regressive policies or ineffective processes.Increasingly,however,governments are eyeing up the vast opportunities that facilitating this sector opens up in terms of industrial development,skilled jobs and socioeconomic returns,as w

96、ell as environmental benefits.Investing to boost wind developmentWind energy has established its credentials as one of the most efficient tools for decarbonising power systems.Failing to deploy wind fast enough risks increasing costs through greater exposure to fossil fuel volatility,geopolitical pr

97、essure and higher carbon emissions.Socially,wind power has the potential to benefit communities by creating millions of skilled jobs around the world.Economically,it can act as a catalyst for trillions of dollars of investment.Heavyweights such as the US and the EU have ramped up government support

98、for wind energy.The Biden administrations Inflation Reduction Act(IRA)is already mobilising massive investment in renewable generation,decarbonised transport,energy storage and improved grid connections.In Europe,the REPowerEU programme seeks to wean the continent off Russian gas while removing obst

99、acles to green energy deployment.And approval of Chinas 14th Five-Year Plan,covering the 20212025 period,turbocharges innovation-driven low-carbon development,with GWEC estimating annual wind installations of 6065 GW per year for onshore and 15 GW for offshore in the second half of this decade.While

100、 these policies are providing a welcome boost to local industry and promising long-overdue action to reduce some of the complex rules associated with wind energy development,they could also threaten the sectors ability to rise to the acceleration challenge.Growing demand for equipment and the key co

101、mmodities that are required to produce it will place significant pressure on supply chains.It is essential that policymakers approach procurement with a more holistic perspective that prioritises economic development and job creation over a narrow focus on achieving the lowest possible price.By adop

102、ting this high-level mindset,governments will allow wind power original equipment manufacturers(OEMs),developers,shipping companies and other actors in the supply chain to invest,ensuring an optimal balance between supply and demand,and delivering benefits for all.Facing up to the size of the challe

103、ngeGearing up to deploy huge volumes of wind power capacity is a far from straightforward task.Adding 1 TW in seven years,when it took around 40 years to install the first TW,is no mean feat.Following a difficult patch of retrenchment,the wind energy manufacturing industry is now facing the prospect

104、 of a rapid upturn.Spare capacity is very limited,and likely to disappear by 2026 unless urgent action is taken to invest in the supply chain.Our analysis in Part 2 shows that 163 GW of nacelle production capacity is available worldwide,which is likely to meet projected global demand up to 2027.But

105、the picture is less rosy for offshore wind.Starting in 2026,Europes existing offshore turbine nacelle assembly capacity will no longer be able to support growth outside of Europe,and by 2030 it will have to double from current levels to meet European demand alone.Elsewhere,nacelle bottlenecks look l

106、ikely in Asia(excluding China)and in the Americas,especially once the pipeline of Brazilian projects starts being rolled out.Shortages are expected to emerge in the second half of this decade for key components such as blades and generators.Gearbox manufacturing capacity is well positioned to suppor

107、t growth up to 2027,but a concentrated supply chain and regionalised sourcing strategies look certain to create bottlenecks.China dominates the global supply chain for other crucial components Spare capacity is limited and will likely disappear by 2026 unless urgent investment is made in the supply

108、chainGWEC.NET 12Policy summarysuch as castings,forgings,slewing bearings,towers and flanges,with a market share of more than 70%.Vessels used in offshore installations are expected to be in sufficient supply in China,but Europe could see shortages towards the end of the decade,unless investments are

109、 made before 2027.And the US,with its Jones Act restrictions,will certainly struggle to meet the Biden Administrations target of 30 GW of offshore wind by 2030 unless it acts to build new vessels.In sum,both Europe and the US are facing the risk of supply chain shortfalls as soon as 2026,particularl

110、y if they follow through with some of the reshoring policies that several countries and regions are rolling out to strengthen energy resilience and boost local industry.Supply chain pressures will alter market dynamics Paradoxically,just as renewable energy proves itself as the most cost-effective f

111、orm of energy and the one best insulated from the vagaries of geopolitical pressures,wind energy runs the risk of seeing its progress thwarted by the practical implications of untapping its immense growth potential.As countries and regions compete for investment,the winners will be those with the mo

112、st attractive market conditions and the most effective regulation.Policymakers must tread the narrow path that enables an adequate level of trade to ensure the energy transition is not delayed while boosting opportunities for their domestic supply chains.Efforts to boost energy security and strength

113、en the local economy have led some countries to reach beyond manufacturing to achieve local supply of critical inputs for their industries,including steel products and raw materials such as rare earth elements(REEs).This has the potential to severely limit the industrys capability to upscale.When co

114、nsidering the localisation or reshoring of their energy sector,governments have choices:they can use incentives or preferential treatment for domestic suppliers or reserve the procurement of certain goods or services for them.GWEC advises against prescriptive localisation requirements or restrictive

115、 trade practices,which could lead to price increases and disruption.It argues instead for flexibility that can build on national and regional competitive advantages,giving OEMs and the supply chain more flexibility in optimising their production.An incentive-based approach will also give the wind in

116、dustry the confidence to overcome recent challenges and begin to scale up for the next phase of global growth.The scale of the investment and production needed to achieve the energy transition will require continued global and regional collaboration and the scaling up of investment everywhere.Policy

146、shore wind financing activity will hit new records in 20233,with more than 30 GW of new projects getting the go-ahead,over half of which will be outside China.Floating offshore technology is making steady progress and will open up previously untapped markets.However,the promise of massive expansion

147、risks colliding with the reality of delivering turbines on land and in the water.The industry is emerging from several difficult years,during which turbine manufacturers have suffered financial losses and policymakers have often failed to provide the optimal conditions for fast and efficient market

148、development and the necessary grid buildout.While technological advances are happening across the sector from Chinas continued lead in upsizing turbine components,to global efforts to improve the circularity of traditionally difficult-to-recycle epoxy-based turbine blades4 there is a danger that an

149、industry scarred by years of financial losses may retreat into caution and protectionism.This would be the worst possible scenario both for the wind industry and the energy transition as global supply diversification has supported the reduction of winds LCOE.As gigawatt-level projects kick off in ne

150、w and traditional wind markets across the globe,GWEC anticipates a flurry of orders for turbine manufacturers everywhere,and pressure on all elements of the supply chain as a result.It is essential that the industry gears up to respond to this challenge by thinking strategically about the road ahead

151、 and setting itself up to deliver on its ambition,supported by adequate policies.A turning point for windHaving achieved impressive learnings and economies of scale over the past two decades,wind is now a mature sector which,like more traditional energy sources,reacts to external factors such as com

152、modity prices,interest rates and political support rather than its own internal dynamics.No longer the new kid on the energy block,the wind sector is at a turning point facing up to a host of new challenges while looking to deploy massive amounts of additional capacity in an ever-growing number of c

153、ountries.Such a huge rise in wind power development can only materialise if governments play their part,through supportive and stable market conditions,in allowing the wind industry to scale up to the ambitious targets it is expected to deliver.In an increasingly interconnected world,the wind sector

154、 must prove that it can continue to innovate,collaborate and integrate.From the role of women and minorities in the industry to the wide-ranging challenge of sustainability,GWEC is determined to facilitate connections between the many stakeholders the sector affects.Having long established its crede

156、 marketIn 2022,the world saw many of its long-established paradigms shattered by a number of deeply transformative events.Inflation reached levels not seen since the massive disruptions of the 1970s driven at both times in large part by commodity price increases.The unprovoked attack on Ukraine by R

158、d causing low-income countries to suffer the most.The global response has been to focus on energy security and resilience.Governments introduced measures to make energy affordable by utilising all available energy sources,including coal,gas and nuclear,and by committing to developing more renewables

159、 in the latter part of the decade.The short-term focus on affordability and the subsequent increased use of fossil fuels led to an increase in global carbon emissions1,even with nearly 80 GW of wind power and more than 200 GW of solar capacity installed2.What this tells us is that installing 300 GW

160、of renewables in one year is not enough to curb a rise in carbon emissions.A tipping point for wind energyAmid the turmoil of 2022,it is clear that we have reached a tipping point for renewable energy in general and for wind power in particular.In Europe,the REPowerEU3 programme has committed the bl

165、icantly more wind will be required to achieve those goals.Substantiating this trend,the International Energy Agency(IEA)s Electricity Market Report 2023 sees renewable energy sources supplying pretty much the totality of the additional electricity generated between 2022 and 2025.6In its Renewables 2

166、022 report the agencys primary analysis of the renewable energy sector the IEA forecasts capacity additions reaching record highs through 20277,led by solar and wind.It expects annual additions to range from 350 GW in the main scenario to 400 GW in the accelerated case.What does a wind energy boom m

167、ean?Wind power is not just growing bigger,it is also spreading more widely.Beyond the current world leaders,many other countries are also refocusing on renewables driven both by the insecurity of relying on fossil fuels and the desire to remain economically competitive.Economic drivers are becoming

168、increasingly important as companies globally commit to environmental,social and governance(ESG)goals that require them and their suppliers to decarbonise.This is a mega-trend to watch as GWEC believes the demand side will become much more vocal in its desire to see more renewables come online to hel

169、p them and their suppliers meet their decarbonisation targets.An example of this is the Asia Clean Energy Coalition8 launched by GWEC,the World Resources Institute and The Climate Group and including Google,Apple,Samsung,Nike and many other large corporates with significant commitments to decarbonis

170、e.But while these trends and commitments are very positive for renewables in general and wind energy in particular,there remains much to do to fully enable the renewables sector to deliver the ambitious deployment levels required to achieve these wider ESG goals.Take,for example,the supply of wind t

182、nst 2020 levels.While most LNG-importing countries have long-term contracts in place,they are unlikely to cover 100%of demand,leaving countries exposed to importing spot cargoes.This has come at a very high financial cost,particularly in the past year.And because LNG markets are global the price imp

183、acts are felt globally.These trends contributed to a historic increase in wholesale electricity prices.Average quarterly wholesale electricity prices spiked in much of the world through the end of last year,and while the IEA projects prices to drop in 2023,the projections are not close to where they

184、 have been in previous years.Equipment manufacturing for gas-fired and coal-fired generation as for wind and solar generation has benefited from the efficiency improvements achieved over the decades.But with high inflation and massive disruptions to global supply chains,coupled with higher expenditu

185、re in shipping and logistics,the capital cost(CAPEX)of electricity generation for all technologies has risen.Wind has achieved significant cost reductions over the last 20 years and the wind industry is now considered fairly mature,especially onshore wind.Offshore wind is newer but,having been comme

186、rcial for at least 15 years,it is also reaching maturity.This means that the dramatic price reductions that we have seen historically are likely to slow and future cost fluctuations in the cost of wind are likely to reflect the underlying cost of capital,commodity costs(steel,copper),and logistics c

191、 visibility on future demand through ambitious nationally determined contributions and sectoral targets while introducing enabling regulations and removing bottlenecks in permitting and other phases of development.From cost to valueAt the same time,to achieve their ambitions,countries will also have

192、 to move decisively to fix current market and regulatory imbalances,which have seen leading companies in the wind industry supply chain declare losses over a period of several years while fossil fuel-producing companies make record profits.This situation,referred to by leading commentators in the en

193、ergy sector as a bizarre paradox,has been a colossal market failure,according to GWEC CEO Ben Backwell.11 Poor market design and procurement have led to a race to the bottom on wind pricing,while inflationary pressures combined with government price caps have exacerbated the squeeze on profitability

194、.As we shall see,this in turn has led to underinvestment in manufacturing and has created the likelihood of supply chain bottlenecks in the years to come.In order to enable the huge amounts of supply chain investment needed to meet increased demand,governments and regulators will need to act smartly

195、 to fix current market imbalances and set the stage for growth.While the focus over the last two decades or more has been on achieving cost reductions,with procurement arrangements largely led by concerns from treasury departments,policymaking now needs to focus on the societal and economic value of

196、 wind energy.Wind energy is already highly competitive compared with fossil fuels and nuclear,but its wider social value needs to be recognised in market and procurement frameworks.Wind energy,in combination with other renewable energy technologies,is the most efficient way of decarbonising power sy

235、in Eastern Europe.No offshore turbine nacelle assembly facility is currently in operation in North America,although GE Renewable Energy,SGRE and Vestas have announced nacelle investment plans for New York and New Jersey in Q1 2023.Similar to North America,LATAM has no offshore nacelle assembly facil

237、roblems arising in the near term,given that European OEMs are able to share spare offshore nacelle assembly capacity with emerging markets in APAC and North America in 20232024.However,the situation is going to change.Starting in 2026,we expect Europes existing offshore turbine nacelle assembly capa

238、city to no longer be able to support growth outside of Europe.In fact,we expect that from 2027 Europes offshore wind turbine nacelle assembly capacity will struggle to cope with the growth expected in Europe alone.Existing capacity needs to double in order to meet the projected demand for this regio

239、n in 2030.Looking at APAC(excluding China),although offshore turbine nacelle capacity is likely to increase to 3.7 GW after expansion work is completed at one of the existing facilities in 2024,it will still be insufficient to meet demand in this region from 2027.Taking into account estimates that d

240、emand for offshore wind turbines in this region will reach 7.9 GW in 2030,it is imperative that the investment plans announced by western OEMs in partnership with Japanese and Korean firms materialise in time.In the US,considering local content requirements(LCRs)associated tax credits and incentives

241、 under the IRA and the two-year lead time needed to build a new offshore wind nacelle production facility from scratch,it is of the utmost urgency that GE Renewable Energy,SGRE and Vestas turn their investment plans into concrete action.There are no plans for offshore wind projects to be built in LA

250、ogies increasingly replacing standard direct drive(DD)turbines over the past five years.Hybrid systems(medium-speed drivetrains)use just one-tenth of the REPMs needed in a DD drivetrain.In the fourth quarter of 2022,China accounted for 68%of rare earth mining and 94%of downstream processing.Only a m

251、eagre amount of materials was processed elsewhere,principally in Malaysia and Estonia.Because the wind industry is exposed to the impacts of geopolitical tensions and following a toughening of Chinas export restrictions of rare earth-related technologies there is growing policy and industrial concer

252、n in Europe,North America,Australia and elsewhere.While sourcing enough REPMs for wind energy generation can be difficult,the greatest challenge for the industry is being able to source them domestically or from a de-risked supply chain.In major markets such as Europe,the US and Australia,demand for

253、 REPMs in wind energy is substantially larger than local supply.Policymakers have made some efforts to bridge this gap,for example in the US,the UK and Australia,where Benchmark Mineral Intelligence(Benchmark)expects to see rapid processing capacity growth by 2024-2025.l The US Department of Defense

266、shore wind turbine installation.No global shortage of WTIVs is expected up until 2026.Following an offshore wind installation rush in 2021,new installations in China slowed down in 2022,and we do not expect to see 2021-level installations again until 2026.In Europe,the current WTIV supply chain can

267、cope with demand,given that annual offshore wind installations are relatively flat and unlikely to reach the 10 GW milestone until 2026 which also explains why European vessel operators are able to release their jack-up and heavy-lift vessels over the next two years to support the demand from emergi

268、ng markets in Asia,mainly Taiwan and Japan,and the US.Looking at the supply chain situation for the 20272030 period,however,while GWEC Market Intelligence does not expect WTIV supply chain constraints in China,it foresees a likely shortage in Europe towards the end of this decade,unless investment i

269、n new WTIVs is made before 2027(assuming a lead time of three years for delivering a new WTIV vessel).In the US,where only two tailor-made Jones Act compliant WTIVs are currently under construction,plans for new WTIVs will have to be executed in the next two or three years to avoid bottlenecks,if th

270、e Biden Administrations target of 30 GW of offshore wind by 2030 is to be met.Restrictive trade policies could delay the energy transition The past three years have shown the exposure and vulnerability of renewable industries to geopolitical dependencies,commodity price cycles,logistics bottlenecks

271、and trade barriers.The sudden post-lockdown recovery of industrial production in 2021 led to fierce competition for raw materials,as well as ongoing bottlenecks in manufacturing capacity.Russias invasion of Ukraine also deepened geopolitical concerns and intensified the existing trade tensions betwe

272、en China and other markets,such as Europe and the US.All of this has brought the urgency of building supply chain security for renewables to the top of the political agenda and created a global green investment race.The Inflation Reduction Act(IRA),signed into law by the Biden Administration in Augu

273、st 2022,promises to move the US closer to its climate goal.Its provisions on ax credits and LCRs associated incentives have generated concern in the EU and other countries about the IRAs potential negative impact on their domestic manufacturing industries.In response,the EU unveiled its Green Deal I

278、 years(see Part 1).This acceleration comes as countries and regions move to implement their ambitious energy and climate targets and is driven by continued cost advantages compared with fossil fuels.GWEC Market Intelligence has increased its forecast for additional wind power installations in the 20

279、232030 period by 143 GW(+13%YoY).We now expect the first TW of wind power to be installed by mid-2023 and the second TW to be reached at the end of this decade.This massive increase in installations will create a need for significant additional capacity across the entire wind supply chain(see Part 2

280、).For example,there are 153 turbine nacelle assembly plants in operation today,with another 74 facilities either under construction or in the planning stage.These assembly plants will need components from across the global supply chain,requiring substantial investment to meet demand.Our analysis in

281、Part 2 also reveals that shortages for both nacelles and key components may develop in the US and Europe mid-decade if the free flow of the global wind supply chain is impacted by regional initiatives aimed at achieving Made in Europe and Made in the USA supply chains.GWEC is concerned that governme

282、nts around the world do not understand the potential impacts of their poorly coordinated actions,which is why the availability of key data on supply chain development is critical,and why continuous dialogue with industry must be undertaken.The Inflation Reduction Act(IRA)provides significant incenti

283、ves for US-based manufacturing,which could render uncompetitive any projects that do not use the levels of local content required to qualify for the extra tax incentives stipulated in the law.The EU has expressed serious concerns about the IRA,alleging it may breach WTO international trade rules,and

284、 has responded with its Green Deal Industrial Plan.Within this plan is the Net Zero Industry Act(NZIA),which requires national governments to apply non-price criteria defined as environmental sustainability,energy system integration,and contribution to the resilience of cleantech supply chains to pr

292、 for clean technologies,a Critical Raw Materials Act(CRMA)to increase Europes capacity to source and refine critical raw materials,and more flexible state aid rules.The NZIA aims to support investment in manufacturing capacity in net-zero emissions technologies in Europe.For wind,it sets an annual m

293、anufacturing capacity target of 36 GW.The commission envisages a new Sovereignty Fund to support cleantech supply chains and identifies the EU Innovation Fund as a bridging instrument.The CRMA includes a list of materials important for the wind industry such as REEs used in permanent magnets,copper

294、for cables and lithium for batteries.With the aim of building its own domestic critical raw materials supply chain,the CRMA wants the EU to extract at least 10%of the critical raw materials it uses from within Europe by 2030.At least 40%should be processed within the EU by then.Under the CRMA,15%of

295、the EUs annual consumption of raw materials would need to be recycled by 2050.New EU State Aid Guidelines for Climate,Energy and Environment entered into force in January 2022,allowing governments to include up to 30%non-price elements in the selection criteria of their auctions.The NZIA now require

296、s national governments to apply non-price criteria,defined as:environmental sustainability,energy system integration,and contribution to resilience of cleantech supply chains.More flexible state aid guidelines were also proposed for national investments in cleantech manufacturing under the Temporary

297、 Crisis and Transition Framework.This allows national governments,for a limited time,to support CAPEX investments in their national cleantech supply chains.It does not cover OPEX.The European Commission has imposed anti-dumping duties on towers imported from China,increasing tariffs from 7.2%to 19.2

298、%.GermanyFollowing European Commission proposals to allow more state aid,Germany is considering offering financial support to investments in domestic energy transition supply chains,as well as wind and solar projects.UKThrough negotiation,the industry has agreed to a local content requirement(LCR)of

299、 60%by 2030.According to the UK government,making a LCR reality will require“significant inward investment activity”on capex elements of offshore wind projects.PolandUnder the Polish Offshore Wind Sector Deal,a level of LCR must be achieved at different stages:“at least 20-30%”of a projects total va

302、 that do not result in better rates of return for companies.The NZIA also sets an annual wind-turbine manufacturing capacity target of 36 GW for EU member states,which is more than double the 16 GW of wind turbines installed in Europe in 2022.However,unlike the clarity and long-term visibility provi

303、ded in the IRA,the NZIA does not directly address the poor market conditions that caused the profitability of European wind turbine manufacturers to fall.Nor does it establish new EU funding or financing mechanisms to scale supply chains to the level required.Another key pillar of the EUs plan,the C

304、ritical Raw Materials Act,states that by 2030 10%of raw materials should be extracted and at least 40%of them processed in the EU.However,whats not yet clear is how the potentially higher costs of those materials will be distributed fairly among western supply chain companies.Many other major econom

305、ies,including Japan,Korea,the UK,Poland,India,Taiwan,Saudi Arabia and Brazil already have or are in the process of designing measures to ensure high levels of local content in their wind energy sectors.The table below summarises some of the measures being introduced by major actors.Some countries ar

306、e reaching well beyond manufacturing,going upstream to achieve local supply of critical inputs for their industries,including specific steel products used in the wind industry and raw materials such as rare earth elements.In some cases,this includes inputs that are currently not produced locally,or

307、are produced in small quantities.The COVID-19 crisis and its aftermath(including widespread disruption of logistics and increased geopolitical tensions)have created a greater understanding of the need to create a more diversified and resilient supply chain.However,global trade flows continue to be c

308、ritical to global economic manufacturing.Additionally,actions attempting to decouple from China and to reshore or localise manufacturing capabilities are likely to create unintended consequences in terms of bottlenecks and higher costs.These in turn,could have the potential to slow,delay or even der

309、ail the global energy transition.It is of critical importance that,as they are urged to act on the energy crises,governments around the world do not underestimate the potential impacts of poorly PrescriptiveHighly prescriptive taxesComponent-specific requirementsIncentive basedIncome or production t

311、ork of key components and commodities suppliers to ensure that policies achieve the intended goals of supporting cost-effective and faster deployment of larger quantities of renewables while boosting local economies and employment.Governments have several choices when they look to localise or reshor

312、e their energy sectors.They can encourage the use of locally produced content either through incentives and/or preferential treatment,such as tax incentives or favourable customs duties.Alternatively,they can specify which goods or services must be provided by domestic suppliers.Or they can use a co

313、mbination of both of these approaches.For GWEC members,localising production is a desirable approach that can lead to significant efficiencies and logistical savings.However,achieving necessary scale to amortise investments in industrial plants is a key concern.The industry has advised governments a

314、gainst prescriptive localisation requirements and argued instead for flexibility in order to build on national and regional competitive advantages.As a rule,GWEC is more supportive of incentive-based rather than prescriptive policies as the former tend to give more flexibility to both OEMs and the s

315、upply chain in optimising their production.Measuring the impacts of reshoring As more reshoring policies are being proposed and introduced globally,it is important to reflect on the potential impacts on costs and timing of wind installations.Any time policies require local content,either through res

316、trictions or incentives,there is a risk of increasing the overall costs of the wind power produced.Another significant unintended consequence is the creation of supply chain bottlenecks.Currently the wind supply chain is highly globalised but with China as the principal supplier at a component level

317、.GWEC Market Intelligences global wind supply chain analysis shows that China controls more than 70%of the global supply chain for powertrains(main shaft and gearbox plus generator),slewing bearings,towers,flanges,castings and forgings.By comparison,according to consultancy Wood Mackenzie,no powertr

318、ains or castings were made in the US in 2021.Even in some countries where sophisticated manufacturing supply chains exist,for example India,China is the primary supplier of castings.How politicians,policymakers and regulators globally try to address this concentration in the supply chain will have a

319、 critical impact on the wind industry and its ability to deliver the capacity necessary for carrying out the energy transition in the timelines outlined in the Paris Agreement.Industry approaches to localisationAs we have noted,wind project operators and OEMs must take into consideration a series of

320、 complex,interconnected factors when they decide where to locate manufacturing facilities.These include:l the size of local wind marketsl logistical factorsl the existence of national and regional incentives l the existence of specific rules around local manufacturingl the availability of critical c

321、omponents and materialsl the existence of a skilled workforcel the need to create or maintain political support for continued market growth.For the offshore wind sector,a strong degree of localisation is imperative,since producing and assembling very large components is best done portside,facilitati

322、ng installation in nearby waters.Transporting fully assembled nacelles plus blades and towers from remote locations and installing them in limited numbers would likely make projects uneconomical.There is no exact formula for managing the trade-offs between localisation and affordability.Achieving th

323、e right balance can be particularly challenging in new markets that have yet to deploy wind projects and as such do not have fully developed and/or competitive wind supply chains.From a purely cost-driven point of view,it makes more sense for countries to take a phased approach that allows imports o

324、f key components and aims to increase localisation as scale GWEC.NET 38Part 3:The risks and opportunities of regionalisationincreases.It is also important for countries to carefully consider their specific advantages in terms of access to materials and components at competitive prices,existing indus

325、trial footprints and availability of skilled labour.Countries with relatively small domestic markets need to look to regional markets and plan how their industries can make the most of regional supply chains while playing to their own advantages.For example,for offshore wind,the countries around the

326、 North Sea have built an array of interlinked industrial capabilities,a skilled workforce,port facilities and logistics around installation and operations and maintenance.It would be desirable for a similar cooperative ecosystem to evolve to address APACs strong demand for offshore wind,rather than

327、every country trying to quickly evolve its own complete offshore wind manufacturing and installation supply chains.However,as we have seen,cost considerations often take second place to concerns such as local investment and job creation;the position of local industrial conglomerates;and political co

328、nsiderations around national control and rivalries with other actors.In many cases,strong political factors make commitments to creating a local wind energy manufacturing industry a prerequisite for achieving the regulatory support the wind sector needs to take off.This is particularly true given th

329、e predominance of government-run auctions as the main procurement mechanism for wind energy and the strong political levers that these create.In the long run,as markets develop,the growth of the wind energy manufacturing sector and related service sectors can play a key role in maintaining social an

330、d political support for the industry.As we have seen in places as diverse as the UK,the US,Brazil and Denmark,local manufacturing and employment eventually translates into long-term,bipartisan support for the wind industry,and creates a virtuous circle of growth,investment and higher political ambit

332、developing rapidly.GWEC,as already noted,is strongly supportive of the incentive-led approach that has been adopted in the US through the IRA and would suggest that this approach be adopted and adapted,of course,to local circumstances in other major energy markets such as the EU,the UK,Japan and els

333、ewhere.As the world enters a phase of significant acceleration of renewable energy deployment,with governments and the private sector seeking to realise heightened ambition,GWEC believes that the incentive approach will be a key differentiator for countries and regions wishing to attract the huge amounts of investment that the energy transition will require.Although the panorama is evolving rapidl
