15、hilippines,South Korea,and Vietnam.GWEC.NET 2The inclusion of a global goal to triple renewable energy by 2030 in the final text at COP28 Dubai was a historic landmark for wind and other renewable technologies.However,despite record-breaking growth the global effort to triple renewable energy by 203
16、0 is falling short.The latest tracking report co-released by IRENA,the COP29 Presidency and the Global Renewable Alliance reveals a significant gap in progress to meet the goals set out in the UAE Consensus and keep the 1.5C target within reach.In particular,it is clear that wind is falling behind i
17、n its progress relative to other technologies such as solar PV.Given that wind is the most effective technology in replacing carbon per MW due to its robust capacity factors,underperforming wind risks undermining global climate and energy targets and making the energy transition harder to achieve.Fo
18、r this reason,GWEC is calling for a wide-ranging RE-set of the wind industry,to ensure it is able to fulfil its obligations and seize the enormous business opportunity that lies before us.This means ensuring that the wind sector can invest massively in technology and manufacturing,can scale up the s
19、upply chain,and maintain and enhance winds competitiveness versus other technologies,all while building strong political and social support for our mission.Now it is time for action!We need each region to step up in the worlds journey to a clean,secure,fair and equitable energy transition.The APAC r
20、egion is the worlds largest wind market with more than half(51%)of global total wind power installations by the end of 2023,and is expected to make up 61%of the new additions to be built worldwide in 2024-2030.However,the concentration risk is high in the current APAC wind energy supply chain.Exclud
21、ing China,the APAC region is unlikely to meet the level of wind power installations required to meet the climate target.Scaling up the local supply chain is critical to fill in the gap,unlock the growth potential in the APAC region and secure the supply chain security.Despite geopolitics complicatin
22、g the move to collaboration in the region,political commitment and cooperation is important to accelerate wind growth.Working together helps raise confidence across the region on supply chain investment and allows cooperation on shared challenges including grid systems,ports,vessels and associated s
23、kills.This report,delivered in partnership with ERM,is GWECs first regional wind energy supply chain report.Not only does it take a deep dive across the wind energy supply chain,from nacelles to components to materials to offshore wind balance of plant,but also identifies key industrial strengths an
24、d opportunities across six case study markets which could be scaled up or transitioned to supply the wind industry.Last but not least,this report provides recommendations to policy makers in regard to how to build a reliable,competitive and resilient supply chain in APAC to support the global energy

27、COP28 pledge to triple global renewable energy capacity by 2030,the drive for wind has continued to gain momentum as reflected in increased installed capacity targets,bespoke policies,and clearer regulations as governments push to meet their climate commitments.International energy agencies agree on
28、 the integral role wind energy needs to play under the tripling renewables scenario.IRENAs World Energy Transitions Outlook foresees 3,040 GW of cumulative onshore wind by 2030 and 494 GW of offshore wind by 2030,equating to approximately 3.5 TW of total wind installed by 20301 The IEAs Net Zero by
29、2050 Scenario(2023)calls for 320 GW of wind installations in 2030,and a total of 2.75 TW of global wind capacity by that time.2 According to GWEC,we need to accelerate annual wind energy installations to more than triple 2023 levels of 117 GW to at least 320 GW over the course of the decade.3 Though
30、 the numbers vary slightly,the message regarding wind energys importance in tackling climate change over the coming years is clear.The Asia Pacific(APAC)region possesses some of the most attractive onshore and offshore wind resource globally and could play a pivotal role in the global energy transit
31、ion.Within the decade,onshore wind capacity could more than double to 1,084 GW.For offshore wind,more than 122 GW of new capacity could come online by 2030,with the cumulative regional total reaching 162 GW by 2030.China is by far the largest onshore and offshore wind market in the region;however,im
32、portant contributions from other key markets including India,Australia,Vietnam,Chinese Taiwan,Japan,South Korea,Kazakhstan,Uzbekistan,the Philippines,and Indonesia4 will be critical to meeting net zero targets.To support the substantial new additions of onshore and offshore wind capacity,urgent scal
33、e up of a robust,resilient supply chain is paramount to enabling country and region-wide renewables targets to be met.APACs current wind energy supply chain is concentrated around China and India(onshore only)and although wind energy supply chain is also identified in other markets in this region an
34、d globally,this study shows that APACs current supply chain setup is not sufficient to build out wind projects to the levels required to meet net zero targets.With a collaborative,cross-border approach to scaling industries in other APAC countries,the APAC supply chain could be grown to meet increas
35、ed regional and global demands while becoming more competitive,diversified,and resilient.APAC industry,government,civil society,and the financial community could collectively drive the systematic change required to build a supply chain able to meet best practice sustainability requirements.This coul

46、tleneck analysis for onshore and offshore wind to consider gaps until 2030 across nacelle assembly,key turbine components(gearboxes,generators,blades,power converters,towers,and castings),critical materials(rare earth elements,carbon fibre,steel,concrete,copper),balance of plant(foundations and cabl
47、es),as well as offshore wind enablers(wind turbine installation vessels and ports).Regional demand for nacelle assembly,key components,offshore wind balance of plant and offshore wind enablers5 can be met by known APAC suppliers until 2030,apart from offshore wind gearboxes and blades where minor bo
48、ttlenecks6 are expected in 2029 and 2030,respectively.As many suppliers are based in China and India(onshore wind),this study also looked at the impact of concentration risk,which revealed that without Chinese and Indian supply and demand,the region will start seeing major bottlenecks immediately.Wi
49、thout China,the APAC region could start seeing immediate supply chain bottlenecks for onshore wind castings as well as offshore wind gearboxes,generators,blades,and power converters.Without India and China,there will be immediate onshore wind bottlenecks across all key components apart from towers.T
50、o meet the growing regional demand for wind(with or without China and India),this study has identified key industrial strengths across Australia,Indonesia,Japan,Philippines,Singapore,South Korea,and Vietnam which could be scaled up or transitioned to supply the wind industry.As shown in the onshore
51、and offshore wind maps on pages 5 and 6,the APAC region has a wealth of capabilities within existing companies with the potential to be scaled where they are existing wind suppliers or transitioned where they have operations that could be pivoted to the wind industry.Four key challenges emerged thro
52、ugh our industry consultations which should be addressed to scale up the supply chain and prevent the inevitable slowdown of wind installations that will ensue.1.Volatile policy and market demand are preventing industry from adjusting and scaling production capacity.Parts of the supply chain are now
53、 loss-making and unable to commit to future production capacity,largely due to policy and regulatory barriers that lead to heightened uncertainty for project investments.In addition to setting targets and auction schedules,suppliers are looking for government commitments to project awards and the ce
54、rtainty that planned projects will move forward on reasonable timelines.In some cases,Tier 2 and Tier 3 suppliers are lacking the information needed to effectively assess the business case for suppling the wind industry(see recommendations 1,3,5 and 6).2.Lack of coordinated investments in large infr
55、astructure such as grids,ports,and roads as well as major equipment like vessels are impeding regional connectivity and trade.Critical infrastructure is needed to support the project installations scheduled for this decade requiring regional level long-term planning and investment.Large equipment su

78、lay of delivery.The energy crisis of 2021 made energy resilience a core political theme,placing the focus on energy supply.Since then,the resilience agenda has expanded to encompass supply chains and industry.This has prompted varying industrial strategies from new wind markets to countries/regions
79、with a fragmented supply chain footprint and countries with an at-scale supply chain.Thus far,many markets in the APAC region have focused on localisation of the supply chain to maximise the perceived benefits to the local economy.However,restrictive local content requirements in some markets have l
80、ed to problems such as increased project capital expenditures and delayed delivery of components and eventually the projects(see recommendations 2 and 4).4.Race for larger wind turbines continues in APAC region,especially in China,which makes standardisation and industrialisation an unachievable tas
81、k.The race for ever larger turbines comes at a cost to suppliers challenged to support new technology with shortened product development time and without sufficient time for thorough testing.The lack of industry standardisation is pushing up costs and adding barriers to regional collaboration(see re
82、commendation 7).This study shows unequivocally that the development of a domestic supply chain will not be sufficient to support forecasted demand over the coming years but that a regional approach could enable the accelerated growth needed regionally and globally.Individual countries within APAC co
83、uld leverage existing strengths to service the wider region and learn to lean on each other to cover any shortcoming to develop a symbiotic,mutually beneficial supply chain.Governments,project developers and suppliers throughout the wind energy value chain should engage in purposeful collaboration t
84、o prevent bottlenecks and achieve the ambitious wind energy buildout to 2030 and beyond.Seven key recommendations have been presented to achieve the necessary supply chain scale-up to meet the APAC wind energy demand through to 2030.Recommendations Recommendation 1:Regional supply chain scale-up is
85、needed urgently if APAC is to meet 2030 targeted wind installations.Given that the APAC region has a healthy pipeline of onshore and offshore wind projects,urgent action is requested of governments and industry to develop strategies and make necessary investments in time to fill the foreseen onshore
86、 and offshore wind supply chain bottlenecks expected to start this decade.This will enable the countries in the region to transform the regions economy while offering the scale of renewables that the world needs to triple renewable energy by 2030.Supply chain is fundamental to unlocking this untappe
87、d renewable energy potential and countries could consider collaboration across borders to leverage the industrial strengths of each market,ensuring new project demands can be met using the best of the regional supply.This type of regional supply chain scaling of existing or pivot industries could br
88、ing greater economic returns for the entire region from working together to build out a larger volume of projects.Recommendation 2:Existing trade agreements can be leveraged to scale up supply chains.Trade policy should aim to build competitive industries,not push higher costs onto end users.Policy
89、measures which unnecessarily restrict trade and foreign investment could lead to a slowdown in deployment that could put the energy transition in jeopardy.Supply chain capacity utilisation remains key to cost reduction and is only possible if resources can be shared across regions,with competitive c
90、ost positions and limited trade barriers.APAC countries could consider leveraging existing regional trade agreements to build a marketplace that encourages cross-border collaboration,diversification of supply,and provides easier access to the large-scale regional demand needed to justify key investm
91、ents to strategically grow each markets supply chain capacities and capabilities.Recommendation 3:Credible markets and committed pipelines are needed to trigger supply chain Executive summaryGWEC.NET 10investments.Credible pipelines and committed projects are needed for industry to justify the large
92、 investments required to scale up the existing supply chain and transition business toward wind supply.Industry is looking for governments to back up their wind targets with 15-year wind installation schedules supported by straight-forward regulatory policies and accelerated project awards to unlock
93、 large supply chain investments.Clear regulatory roadmaps for leasing and offtake processes will increase pipeline certainty driving investor confidence.The inclusion of wind energy targets in national energy plans and nationally determined contributions can provide policy continuity which will buil
94、d industry confidence.Recommendation 4:Public support for supply chain capacity building outside of auctions could boost resilience and sustainability while reducing price pressure on developers,especially for near term projects.Governments could consider taking a longer-term view on supporting supp
95、ly chain capacity building outside auction evaluation criteria to reduce price pressure during auctions,which is ultimately paid for by households,commercial and industrial consumers,cities,and other consumers of electricity.Although environmental sustainability could be considered among auction cri
96、teria,the path to building more sustainable supply chains requires long-term coordination across many stakeholders to drive the systemic change needed to ensure that sustainability targets drive responsible procurement.Countries will benefit from public investment in supply chain growth,emerging tec
97、hnologies,longer-term industrialisation plans,and workforce training increasing attractiveness for domestic investors and industry(including companies with businesses that could transition to wind)entering the market.Recommendation 5:Transition industries could be encouraged to expand or pivot opera
98、tions to fill wind industry supply chain bottlenecks.APAC industries with the potential to transition(and in many cases also decarbonise)operations include shipbuilding,offshore oil and gas/EPCs,automotive,composite,and electrical/electronic manufacturing.Companies in these fields are considered to
99、have skills and operations that could potentially be pivoted toward the wind supply chain.Recommendation 6:International collaboration to scale up the floating wind supply chain could start now.Floating wind will start to dominate certain APAC markets as it continues its path toward commercialisatio
100、n,requiring its own supply chain to be ready.Building on the regional supply chain proposed in recommendation 1,a collaborative approach could be used already to build a floating wind supply chain ready to meet the expected growth within and outside the APAC region.This can include early planning wi
101、th governments and learning from experiences from overseas.Governments could start looking at support schemes which will fit with the market fundamentals in the individual APAC floating markets to unlock the regions huge floating wind potential.Recommendation 7:The wind industry must continue to sta
102、ndardise and industrialise.Greater alignment on industry standards(e.g.,health and safety,ESG,engineering design codes and environmental sustainability)between APAC countries could improve efficiencies and enhance regional and global collaboration.Governments could explore adopting international bes
103、t practices on industry standards as financing will have minimum requirements that need to be observed.Adopting industry standards could provide a strategic avenue for APAC wind supply chain manufacturers to access global export markets and opportunities for companies that run responsible sourcing a
104、nd procurement.Suppliers looking to meet financing requirements to upscale manufacturing or set up new bases should increase transparency and traceability to ensure oversight of the complete process,from raw material procurement to final product delivery.Turbines are an important example of the need
105、 to standardise and industrialise.The race for larger turbines has left insufficient time for thorough testing,resulting in serial defects in the field.Rapid innovation on turbine and component design has not allowed for industrialisation of existing technologies.Executive summaryStrapGWEC|ERM|MISSI

107、ries to double energy efficiency and triple renewables capacity by 2030.11 Action to increase clean energy generation globally could not be more urgent,and accelerated deployment of wind energy across Asia Pacific(APAC)countries is expected to play a critical role.The Global Wind Energy Council(GWEC
108、)estimates that annual wind installation must increase three-fold this decade to meet net zero benchmarks,and this could be driven by the APAC region which already holds more than half(51%)of the worlds total wind power installations by the end of 2023 and is expected to make up 61%of new additions
109、worldwide between 2024 and 2030.Although most new wind installation will be driven by China and India,the rest of APAC may want to consider following suit to meet national wind targets and provide the supply chain with the confidence needed to build capacity and fill the foreseen bottlenecks current
110、ly expected to slow the industry.Despite the potential in the region and ambition of individual countries to accelerate onshore and offshore wind deployment;this report will provide evidence that,without coordinated and strategic investment in a regional supply chain,bottlenecks will further increas
111、e hampering the needed acceleration of renewables.This report provides a comprehensive view of the APAC supply chain capabilities out to 2030,starting with identification of where regional and domestic bottlenecks are most severe,moving to a deep dive into the industrial strengths and opportunities
112、of the six target countries in this report Australia,Indonesia,Japan,Philippines,South Korea and Vietnam and substantiating the role of regional collaboration in closing near-future supply chain gaps.Establishment of a symbiotic supply chain ecosystem can allow countries to leverage existing industr
113、ial strengths and receive support from surrounding countries where they may fall short.Leveraging regional collaboration for the greater prosperity of all countries will also enable APAC to ramp up to the levels required of the Global Renewables and Energy Efficiency Pledge.This report presents a bo
114、ttom-up APAC supply chain assessment and provides recommendations based on more than 100 consultations with industry and government stakeholders across the region conducted in Q3 2024.During the consultations,stakeholders were asked to review the findings and provide opinions and recommendations for
115、 solving supply chain bottlenecks where gaps were identified.Although the focus has been on the six target countries,we have also included viewpoints from stakeholders in other APAC markets(e.g.,China,India,Chinese Taiwan,and Singapore)to provide a comprehensive view of the region.Onshore wind APAC

119、 400 GW that is already operational.This forecasted additional capacity in China equates to over 80%of the newbuild onshore wind capacity in this timeframe.India follows with an additional 45 GW by 2030,as the country has grown to be the fourth largest onshore wind market globally with a target to i
120、nstall 140 GW of wind by 2030.Australia and Vietnam are also expected to be significant contributors,installing 15 GW and 12 GW(including intertidal)in the same period,respectively.Annual installed capacity in the APAC region will steadily increase throughout the remainder of this decade from 79 GW

144、arket Status and Wind Supply Chain Outlook GWEC.NET 16reflects the status of the APAC supply chain relative to this demand.Where the current planned supply capacities for the component is greater than the forecasted demand,and thus no bottleneck is expected,this is shown in green.Amber indicates tha
145、t the demand slightly exceeds the supply levels,by under 10%.Finally,red denotes that the demand exceeds supply by over 10%and therefore there is risk of a significant bottleneck.Under this studys assumption that APAC demand is met with supply from the region,the earliest bottlenecks are expected in
146、 2029 and 2030 for gearboxes and blades with demand falling to within 10%of the regional demand.This picture changes quickly when Chinese supply and demand is removed from the analysis,apart from onshore gearboxes,towers,and foundations.In 2024,China contributed 89%of onshore wind demand and 91%of o
147、ffshore wind demand.Whilst this share is reduced to 81%for onshore and 69%for offshore by 2030 due to growth in other APAC markets,China will continue to commission and supply the majority of wind energy capacity in APAC,holding a dominant position across nearly the entire supply chain.Indian supply
148、 chain is quite critical to meet onshore wind demand for components,and without China and India the rest of the APAC region would suffer extreme supply shortages across all main components,apart from towers,unless filled by the global market.China and India will play critical roles in the present an
149、d future supply chain;however,even with these two powerhouses,bottlenecks are expected unless our target markets ramp up.With increased regional cooperation,APAC could have a more diversified and efficient supply chain to derisk regional installation rollout as project installations increase.Markets

156、tions offers huge opportunities for suppliers looking to expand existing capacities,develop new capabilities and pivot related industries towards the wind industry.China and India will continue to play a key role in supplying APAC wind projects;however,for the wind industry to thrive,other APAC mark
157、ets should also invest in their supply chains.The table above summarises the capabilities identified during the consultation phases,as well as non-wind industries that have the potential to transition their businesses to also supply the wind supply chain.Please see the specific country chapters for
158、more details on specific strengths,opportunities and recommendations for each of the target markets.Key findings Turbine Nacelle Assembly Onshore Nacelle Assembly:The impact of removing the supply of onshore nacelle assembly from both China and India indicates a strong regional dependency on these s
159、uppliers to meet the demand of APAC,if imports from other regions are not considered.Including supply from China and India,no bottlenecks are expected through to 2030;however,without supply from China and India,the region will face bottlenecks immediately through to 2030.There are existing onshore n
160、acelle assembly capabilities in South Korea and capabilities in Vietnam that could be transitioned to support the region.However,other countries like Australia and the Philippines have been flagged as having the potential industries to partner with international OEMs to meet domestic needs.Offshore
161、Nacelle Assembly:Minor bottlenecks13 for offshore nacelle assembly are expected in 2030 in the APAC region(excluding China).Bottlenecks are expected to become more significant from 2030,as demand increases.When including Chinese nacelle assembly,no bottlenecks are expected across APAC through to 203
162、0.There are planned offshore nacelle assembly capabilities in Japan and South Korea,and capabilities that could be transitioned in Vietnam.Key components Gearboxes:In the APAC region,supply for onshore wind gearboxes is sufficient to meet demand through to 2030.When the supply and demand from China
163、is removed,there are no bottlenecks.However,when the supply and demand from China and India are removed,there is a major bottleneck14 throughout the whole forecast period.For offshore wind,the APAC region is expected to face minor shortages of gearboxes towards the end of the decade.However,bottlene
164、cks are significantly increased when supply from China is removed,causing major bottlenecks throughout the whole forecast period.Gearboxes are currently manufactured predominantly in China,India,Japan,and South Korea.Countries with an automotive industry like Indonesia and the Philippines could cons
165、ider the potential for a transition to supply of gearboxes,but investors should be aware that the technical threshold and risk for gearbox production is high compared with other build-to-print components.Generators:The supply of generators in APAC is concentrated in China for both onshore and offsho
166、re wind applications.No bottlenecks for offshore wind generators are expected when including Chinese suppliers in the analysis.Excluding China,the APAC region will start seeing gaps in generator supply starting in 2026 for onshore wind and immediately for offshore wind.When removing China and India
167、from the scenario,bottlenecks for onshore generators are expected immediately.Generators can be provided by Vietnam for onshore applications,but,there is still a large supply chain gap outside China.To improve diversification of supply Japan and Korea could also potentially transition electrical man
168、ufacturing toward increased supply of generators.Chapter 1:APAC Market Status and Wind Supply Chain Outlook 13.Minor bottleneck means supply is within 10%of the demand in a given year 14.Major bottleneck means supply is greater than 10%of demand in a given yearLooking at a 2030 APAC Wind Supply Chai
169、n and BeyondGWEC.NET 18Blades:Within the APAC region,over 98%of total blade production is in China and India.Starting in 2029 for onshore wind and immediately for offshore wind,the APAC region without China will start seeing gaps in blade supply.Blades are expected to continue to be supplied by Indi
170、a and China through to 2030;however,a new blade facility has been announced in Vietnam to support the Vietnamese market and growth in this region.Beyond 2030,we expect other countries to build capabilities,especially countries with large pipelines.Power Converters:When sourcing from within the APAC
171、region,projects are heavily reliant on Chinese power converters to meet on and offshore wind demand.Starting in 2025 for onshore wind and immediately for offshore wind,the APAC region excluding China will start seeing bottlenecks in power converter supply.Going forward,Vietnam has the potential to e
172、xpand existing capabilities and increase exports of power converters across APAC.South Korea,Japan,the Philippines and Indonesia could leverage capabilities in electrical component manufacturing to transition towards the supply of power converters.Towers:For both on and offshore wind,towers are not
173、expected to be a bottleneck when considered regionally.Castings:China leads casting manufacturing within APAC and is crucial to meeting the regions on and offshore wind demand.Starting immediately for onshore wind and in 2025 for offshore wind,the APAC region without China will start seeing gaps in
174、castings supply.India has a local casting supply chain,but capacity for the large-casted items used in offshore wind is missing at present.Other markets within APAC(Vietnam,the Philippines and Indonesia)could leverage existing capabilities in their automotive industries and expand capabilities to tr
175、ansition to supply castings for onshore and offshore wind across the region.Offshore Balance of PlantFoundations:Foundation supply is healthy across offshore wind;no bottlenecks are expected for fixed foundations through to 2030 in this region even when the Chinese supply chain is excluded.For float
176、ing foundations,no bottlenecks are expected across APAC.However,when China is excluded,major bottlenecks are expected in 2026,before additional supply capacity is due to come online,and again in 2030 when demand increases to 75 units.Cables:When considered regionally,no bottlenecks are expected for
177、cables throughout the forecast period,even when excluding supply from China.Offshore Enablers Wind turbine installation vessels(WTIVs):No WTIV shortages are seen across the APAC region when assuming free movement of vessels between APAC countries.However,when excluding China,bottlenecks are seen fro
178、m 2028.There could be earlier instances of shortages due to cabotage rules in Japan and South Korea,and increasing sizes of turbines making some vessels unsuitable.With vessels from Europe and Japan available to support,no bottleneck is expected for the Chinese Taiwan offshore wind market,but the si
179、tuation is likely to change if those foreign WTIVs are required to support the growth in their home markets.In addition to WTIVs,South Korea,Singapore,the Philippines,Vietnam and Australia could leverage their shipbuilding industries to support the manufacturing of offshore wind service vessels.Port
180、s:The availability of offshore wind marshalling has been omitted from the supply and demand analysis of key wind components in the APAC region table above as this is best considered at a market-by-market level(see Chapter 2 for a more detailed discussion)in APAC.In certain regions such as Northern E
181、urope,there have been cases where marshalling ports are used to support construction in neighbouring countries,but this is unlikely to be a feasible solution in APAC where the geographical distances involved are much greater.Chapter 1:APAC Market Status and Wind Supply Chain Outlook GWEC|ERM|MISSION
182、 CRITICAL:BUILDING THE ASIA PACIFIC WIND ENERGY SUPPLY CHAIN FOR A 1.5C WORLD 19CHAPTER 2:DEEP DIVE INTO THE APAC WIND SUPPLY CHAINOver the last decade,China has emerged as not only the worlds leading wind turbine manufacturing base but also as the largest production hub for key components and mater
183、ials.As the second-largest APAC hub for onshore wind turbine assembly and key components production,India has gained an increasingly prominent role in the global onshore wind supply chain.In addition to the predominantly Chinese and Indian wind suppliers,APAC also relies on regional suppliers from N
184、ortheast Asia(South Korea and Japan),Southeast Asia(Vietnam,Philippines,Indonesia,Chinese Taiwan and Singapore)and increasingly central Asia,which has attracted renewable energy investment in recent years(e.g.,Kazakhstan).Onshore wind Regionally,the onshore wind industry is able to meet its demand a
185、cross the supplier categories studied through to 2030.However,if China cannot participate in the APAC market(either for supply or demand)supply bottlenecks appear across all categories apart from onshore nacelle assembly,gearboxes and towers.India is a critical regional supplier for nacelle assembly
186、 and to a lesser extent gearboxes which Japan and South Korea can also supply.Tower supply is already more diversified across APAC.Even taking both India and China out of the equation,supply from Vietnam,South Korea,Indonesia and Japan is sufficient to meet regional onshore tower demand through to 2
187、030.Offshore windChina also dominates the offshore wind supply chain,which it is striving to scale up to meet its high domestic demand.Even with Chinese supply,the study identifies minor bottlenecks for gearboxes and blades starting in 2029 and 2030,respectively.Depending on rigidity around cabotage
188、 rules,bottlenecks may appear for vessels before 2030 regardless of the actual supply in the region.Chinese Taiwan expects WTIV bottlenecks due to insufficient domestic supply and may need to rely on foreign vessels.China,South Korea and Japan have ports suitable for offshore wind from 2024 to 2030,
189、but as things stand,only Chinese ports will be able to meet Chinas domestic demand.Bottlenecks related to Japanese port availability is dependent on the successful execution of the upgrades of the offshore wind base ports designated by the government.As with onshore wind,the regional bottlenecks ide
190、ntified without Chinese supply and demand for offshore wind changes considerably.APAC(excluding China)can produce enough offshore wind towers and fixed foundations to meet regional demand,as the supply chains for these two components are the most diversified geographically.Indonesia and Vietnam have
191、 the highest export capability potential for offshore towers through to 2030,due to their relatively low domestic demand.Similarly,the Philippines,Vietnam and Indonesia will be the main exporters of foundations for the same reason,while South Korea will also have high exports because of its strong m
192、anufacturing capacity.Lastly,assuming fulfillment of the announced investment plans in South Korea and Japan,the regional supply chain for offshore nacelle assembly,even excluding China,will be able to meet demand until 2029,with only a minor bottleneck expected in 2030.China supplies most critical
193、materials for the wind sector not only regionally,but also globally.The supplier research revealed some mining and refining capacities in other APAC countries,with different protagonists depending on the material.GWEC.NETChapter 2:Deep Dive into the APAC Wind Supply Chain 20APAC wind supply chain st

195、es using components generally sourced from a range of external suppliers.In APAC region,most of the nacelle assembly plants are in China and India.Looking at the overall market for onshore and offshore wind nacelle assembly,the Chinese market accounts for 85%of the whole APAC nacelle assembly capaci
196、ty.India is the next largest producer of nacelles and driven exclusively by onshore wind,followed by Chinese Taiwan and South Korea to a much lesser extent.Challenges in the supply chain for onshore wind nacelles As per the assembly of nacelles for onshore wind turbines,China is still the dominant s
197、upplier in APAC,with an 85%share.India and South Koreas nacelle capacity is solely onshore,driven by Indias Suzlon,Inox,Adani and Senvion India and South Koreas Doosan and Unison.Record investment commitments were made at RE Invest 2024,including an additional 11 GW of turbine manufacturing capacity
198、 expected to be added between 2025 and 2030.Assessing each markets capacity to supply its own demand for onshore nacelle assembly,only the three APAC countries(China,India,and South Korea)can meet their respective demand.Meanwhile,markets that have no assembling facilities for onshore wind turbines
199、will depend on imports from China or India if they want to avoid bottlenecks in nacelle assembly supply.When excluding supply from China and India,APAC faces major bottleneck risks immediately through to 2030.In Japan,there were three wind turbine OEMs(Mitsubishi Heavy Industries,Hitachi15 and Japan
200、 Steel Works)with turbines exceeding 2 MW.However,by 2019,all three companies had withdrawn from the market,struggling to grow their capabilities in a stagnant domestic onshore wind market and unable to compete with international OEMs in overseas markets.Though smaller companies such as Komai Haltec
201、 are producing 300 kW turbines,Japan currently has no active nacelle assembly capacity for MW-scale onshore wind turbines.In South Korea,there are two active domestic turbine OEMs,Doosan Enerbility and Unison.Doosans current onshore wind offerings include 3 MW and 3.3 MW models,16 with approximately
202、 150 MW of onshore capacity installed in Korea.17 Meanwhile Unison produces 2 MW and 4 MW sized turbines18 for onshore wind projects and has contributed over 240 WTGs domestically,equivalent to 480 MW of installed capacity.19Challenges in the supply chain for offshore wind nacelles In terms of suppl
203、y for offshore wind nacelle assembly,China accounted for most of the APAC capacity,holding an 87%share.Other production capacity is in Chinese Taiwan,which increased from 1.2 GW in 2023 to 3 GW in 2024.This increase is due to the start of production from Siemens Gamesa at its expanded nacelle assemb
204、ly facility in Taichung.Furthermore,Japan and South Korea could begin assembling offshore turbine nacelles in 2026,through partnerships between local companies and international OEMs.Considering the upcoming demand for offshore nacelles,only China and Chinese Taiwan can avoid bottlenecks within thei

224、 conventional high-speed gear drive converts rotor torque at a speed of 5-15 rpm to a speed of up to about 1500 rpm for conversion to electrical energy by the generator,while a medium-speed gearbox(or hybrid drive)converts it to a speed of 600 rpm.However,not all wind turbines use a gearbox;instead,
225、some utilise direct drive technology as an alternative.Despite the higher costs,direct drive turbines are becoming widely used in offshore wind,as they have better reliability and lower maintenance costs.The most used type of drivetrain technology is still the high-speed gearbox,followed by medium-s

285、imary structure of a wind turbine,the tower is an independent component that accounts for approximately 20%of the turbine cost,making it one of the most expensive components.The tower is typically a tubular steel structure that supports the nacelle,although it can also be made of concrete or wood.To
286、wers are also used to house electrical and control equipment,as well as to provide shelter and storage for safety equipment.They do not need to be assembled with other turbine components until installation.There is a considerable level of diversification in the supply chain for towers,compared to ot
287、her components.Towers are usually one of the first components to be considered when looking to address local content,as entry barriers are low and companies with steel rolling capabilities can participate easily.Challenges in the supply chain for onshore wind towers In the APAC region,onshore wind t

305、UILDING THE ASIA PACIFIC WIND ENERGY SUPPLY CHAIN FOR A 1.5C WORLD 43Chapter 2:Deep Dive into the APAC Wind Supply ChainCastings play a key role in assembling and operating a wind turbine.As the wind turns the rotor blades,they transmit significant fatigue loads to the cast components,which are then
306、 passed on to the wind tower.A wind turbine requires various castings,such as the rotor hub,main frame,gearbox housing,main shafts,and bearing housings,extending from the rotor hub to the drivetrain and the nacelle bed frame.As a traditional industry with non-automated technology and low annual prod
307、uction volumes,the casting industry would benefit from heavy CAPEX investments in the future.However,this is limited by price pressures.Traditionally,foundries have acted as tier 2 or tier 3 suppliers,letting the machining supply base be the OEM interface.Several large wind turbine OEMs typically ow

323、of clean energy supply chains,and the adequate supply of critical materials.According to the International Energy Agency(IEA),total mineral demand from clean energy technologies is set to double in the Stated Policies Scenario35 and quadruple in the Sustainable Development Scenario36 by 2040 compare
324、d to 2020 levels(see figure to the right).Under the conditions outlined in the IEAs net zero emissions by 2050 scenario,critical minerals supply will need to grow three and a half times by 2030 to meet energy demands.Ensuring that wind energy can continue to draw on sufficient mineral supplies could
325、 present some challenges,given that the timescale for new mining projects can be nearly 20 years,with a strong potential for delays caused by a range of environmental,social and permitting issues.37In this report,the critical materials assessed include rare earth elements,carbon fibre,steel,concrete
