Offshore wind covers electricity generation from wind turbines installed on fixed or floating structures at sea, together with the foundations, subsea and export cables, substations, installation work and long-term operation and maintenance that make a project function. Revenue is counted across the equipment, construction and service value chain. Buyers are utilities, independent power producers, oil and gas companies and infrastructure funds that develop, own and operate projects, plus the grid operators that connect them.

Growth of 11.97% a year carries the global offshore wind market from USD 52 billion in 2025 to USD 144.5 billion in 2034. The full series behind that rate covers USD 29 billion in 2020, USD 46.7 billion in 2024, USD 58.5 billion in 2026 and USD 91.8 billion in 2030, with 2025 as the base year.

36% of 2025 revenue sits in Wind Turbine, worth USD 18.72 billion and rising to USD 44.79 billion at 31% by 2034, the largest component line in both years. Growth is fastest in Mooring and Anchoring at 19.84% and slowest in Wind Turbine at 10.13%. Share moves toward Electrical Infrastructure, Mooring and Anchoring and Operations and Maintenance Services and away from Wind Turbine, Substructure and Foundation, Installation and Logistics and Others, though no line shrinks in revenue terms.

The foundation type split puts Monopile first, at USD 35.36 billion and 68% of revenue in 2025, rising to USD 80.92 billion and 56% in 2034. Floating grows faster at 30.6% against 9.64%, moving from 2.5% of revenue to 10% by 2034. It cuts the same total as the component axis from a different commercial angle, so revenue does not add across the two.

The regional order runs from Asia Pacific at 47.5% of 2025 revenue down to Latin America at 1.5%. Asia Pacific is worth USD 24.7 billion in 2025 and USD 72.24 billion in 2034; Europe, second at 41%, moves from USD 21.32 billion to USD 47.69 billion. North America, Asia Pacific, Latin America and Middle East and Africa gain share across the period, so growth is not distributed evenly between regions.

Behind these figures sit five regions, seven component lines and eleven segmentation axes, each reported for every year from 2020 to 2034. The headline 2025 value is arrived at by triangulating published aggregates against category proxies, not by an independent count, and the same applies to the segment, regional and country breakdowns drawn from it.

• Revenue grows from USD 52 billion in 2025 to USD 144.5 billion in 2034, a compound annual rate of 11.97%, having reached USD 46.7 billion in 2024 from USD 29 billion in 2020.
• Wind Turbine is the largest component line at USD 18.72 billion in 2025, a 36% share, reaching USD 44.79 billion and 31% of revenue by 2034.
• Fastest growth on the component axis belongs to Mooring and Anchoring: 19.84% a year, USD 1.04 billion to USD 5.49 billion, and a share moving from 2% to 3.8%.
• Against a base case of USD 144.5 billion in 2034, the study also reports a bear case at USD 110.9 billion and a bull case at USD 160.5 billion, with the assumptions behind each set out separately.
• Asia Pacific holds 47.5% of global revenue in 2025 at USD 24.7 billion, the largest of the five regions tracked, and reaches USD 72.24 billion by 2034.
• Within Asia Pacific, China is the worked country example, at USD 18.4 billion in 2025; 74.49% of regional revenue in the base year, and USD 50.2 billion by 2034.
• The study covers 2020 through 2034 with 2025 as the base year, reporting five regions and eleven segmentation axes separately, with revenue, share and a growth rate for every line in each year.

Three movements define the forecast period in the global offshore wind market: how the component mix changes, where regional weight shifts, and the rate at which the total compounds.

None of them reverses the market's direction. Every line and every region grows in absolute terms across the period; the movement is in which of them captures the revenue added.

Mooring and Anchoring grows faster than Wind Turbine. Between 2026 and 2034, 19.84% growth in Mooring and Anchoring against 10.13% in Wind Turbine pulls the component mix apart. Shares follow: 2% to 3.8% for Mooring and Anchoring, 36% to 31% for Wind Turbine. In absolute terms Mooring and Anchoring rises from USD 1.04 billion to USD 5.49 billion, while Wind Turbine rises from USD 18.72 billion to USD 44.79 billion. Both grow; the gap is wide enough to reshape the mix inside a single forecast window.

North America, Asia Pacific, Latin America and Middle East and Africa gain regional share. North America moves from 7% of revenue in 2025 to 11% in 2034, worth USD 3.64 billion rising to USD 15.9 billion; Asia Pacific moves from 47.5% of revenue in 2025 to 50% in 2034, worth USD 24.7 billion rising to USD 72.24 billion; Latin America moves from 1.5% of revenue in 2025 to 2% in 2034, worth USD 0.78 billion rising to USD 2.89 billion; Middle East and Africa moves from 3% of revenue in 2025 to 4% in 2034, worth USD 1.56 billion rising to USD 5.78 billion. Share moves off the others in turn: Europe at 41% moving to 33%, each still growing in revenue terms. The practical consequence is that regional weighting decides whether a participant matches the market rate or trails it, regardless of how its own revenue reads.

Fifteen years without a discontinuity. Reading the series: USD 29 billion in 2020, USD 46.7 billion in 2024, USD 52 billion in 2025, USD 58.5 billion in 2026, USD 91.8 billion in 2030 and USD 144.5 billion in 2034. No year breaks the trajectory, and the 11.97% forecast rate compares with 12.39% recorded over 2020-2025, a continuation, not an inflection. The risk in the number sits in the mix assumptions, not in whether the market grows at all, which is where the component and regional sections come in.

Mooring and Anchoring adds the most incremental growth

The 11.97% forecast rate rests on three things that can be measured separately: the size of the existing base, the mix shift on the component axis, and where regional growth is concentrated.

What holds the forecast back

Upside case: USD 160.5 billion by 2034

One component line carries the market

7% of the global offshore wind market sits in North America in 2025, worth USD 3.64 billion on the way to USD 15.9 billion by 2034. By revenue it sits third across the study, and the ranking does not change between 2025 and 2034.

Its share rises to 11% over the forecast period, so the region grows faster than the market's 11.97% and takes a larger part of the revenue added by 2034 than its 2025 weight implies.

The component mix reported at global level applies here, with Wind Turbine the largest line at 36% of 2025 revenue and Mooring and Anchoring the fastest-growing at 19.84%. Per-axis and per-country detail for North America sits in the full report.

USD 3.2 billion of North America's 2025 revenue is generated in the United States, the region's largest market, reaching USD 14.3 billion by 2034. Carrying 87.91% of the region in the base year, it sets North America's direction instead of merely contributing to it. Set against USD 3.64 billion and USD 15.9 billion for the region, it is why this market, and not a smaller one, is the one reported in full.

the United States buys along the same lines as the market globally; Wind Turbine first at 36% of 2025 revenue and 31% in 2034, Mooring and Anchoring fastest at 19.84% on a share moving from 2% to 3.8%. With 87.91% of North America concentrated here, a change in this country's mix is visible in the regional figures instead of being diluted by its neighbours. The full report reports the United States by component separately.

Offshore wind in United States federal waters is governed by the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, which issues leases and approves site assessment and construction and operations plans under the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act. The Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement oversees safety and inspection, while the Army Corps of Engineers and the Coast Guard handle permits and navigation aids. Environmental review runs under the National Environmental Policy Act, with consultation under the Endangered Species Act and the Marine Mammal Protection Act. Suppliers must show that turbines, foundations and cables meet recognised certification standards, and a certified verification agent reviews the design before installation.

Competition in the United States runs between the suppliers this study tracks: Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy, S.A., Vestas Wind Systems A/S, Goldwind Science & Technology Co., Ltd., Mingyang Smart Energy Group Co., Ltd., GE Vernova Inc., Envision Energy Co., Ltd., Shanghai Electric Wind Power Group Co., Ltd., Dongfang Electric Corporation Limited, CRRC Corporation Limited, Windey Energy Technology Group Co., Ltd., SANY Renewable Energy Co., Ltd., Sembcorp Marine Ltd, Sif Holding N.V., EEW Group GmbH, Haizea Wind Group, Smulders Projects, Navantia S.A., Nexans S.A., Prysmian S.p.A., NKT A/S, Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd., Hitachi Energy Ltd., Orient Cable (NBO) Co., Ltd., Ningbo Orient Wires & Cables Co., Ltd., Jan De Nul Group, DEME Group NV, Van Oord Dredging and Marine Contractors B.V., Cadeler A/S, Seaway7 ASA, Subsea7 S.A., Saipem S.p.A., Aker Solutions ASA, Ørsted A/S, Equinor ASA, RWE AG, Vattenfall AB, BladeBUG, LM Wind Power, TPI Composites, Inc., Zhongfu Lianzhong Composites Group Co., Ltd., Timken Company, Schaeffler AG and ABB Ltd. Wind Turbine, at 36% of 2025 revenue, is where the volume sits, and Mooring and Anchoring, growing at 19.84%, is where position changes hands over the forecast period. Country-level shares and positioning per company sit in the full report.

Canada is sized at USD 0.44 billion in 2025, rising to USD 1.6 billion by 2034; 0.85% of global revenue and 12.09% of North America. It is reported separately from the United States across every segmentation axis in the full report.

In Europe, 41% of global revenue puts 2025 at USD 21.32 billion and reaches USD 47.69 billion by 2034. By revenue it sits second across the study, and the ranking does not change between 2025 and 2034.

Its share moves to 33% by 2034, though revenue still rises throughout; the shift is in the region's weight against faster-growing ones, which is not the same as weakening demand.

Wind Turbine leads here as it does globally, at 36% of 2025 revenue, and Mooring and Anchoring again grows fastest at 19.84%. Revenue for Europe is broken out by every segmentation axis and by country in the full report.

USD 7.2 billion of Europe's 2025 revenue is generated in the United Kingdom, the region's largest market, reaching USD 14.3 billion by 2034. At 33.77% of the region in 2025 it leads, but a majority of Europe's revenue is generated in other markets. Set against USD 21.32 billion and USD 47.69 billion for the region, it is why this market, and not a smaller one, is the one reported in full.

Composition here matches the global split: the largest line is Wind Turbine at 36% of 2025 revenue, easing to 31% by 2034, and the fastest is Mooring and Anchoring at 19.84%, from 2% to 3.8%. Because the country carries 33.77% of Europe, a movement in its own mix shows up in the regional totals instead of being averaged away by neighbouring markets. Per-component revenue for the United Kingdom appears on its own in the full report.

The Crown Estate and Crown Estate Scotland grant seabed rights, and developers then need consent from the Planning Inspectorate or the Marine Directorate, with marine licensing from the Marine Management Organisation or its devolved counterparts. The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero sets the contract-for-difference framework, and Ofgem licenses transmission and regulates grid connection. The Health and Safety Executive covers construction and operational safety. Suppliers must demonstrate conformity with international wind turbine design standards, usually through an accredited certification body, and must meet supply chain plan expectations attached to subsidy awards.

Competition in the United Kingdom runs between the suppliers this study tracks: Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy, S.A., Vestas Wind Systems A/S, Goldwind Science & Technology Co., Ltd., Mingyang Smart Energy Group Co., Ltd., GE Vernova Inc., Envision Energy Co., Ltd., Shanghai Electric Wind Power Group Co., Ltd., Dongfang Electric Corporation Limited, CRRC Corporation Limited, Windey Energy Technology Group Co., Ltd., SANY Renewable Energy Co., Ltd., Sembcorp Marine Ltd, Sif Holding N.V., EEW Group GmbH, Haizea Wind Group, Smulders Projects, Navantia S.A., Nexans S.A., Prysmian S.p.A., NKT A/S, Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd., Hitachi Energy Ltd., Orient Cable (NBO) Co., Ltd., Ningbo Orient Wires & Cables Co., Ltd., Jan De Nul Group, DEME Group NV, Van Oord Dredging and Marine Contractors B.V., Cadeler A/S, Seaway7 ASA, Subsea7 S.A., Saipem S.p.A., Aker Solutions ASA, Ørsted A/S, Equinor ASA, RWE AG, Vattenfall AB, BladeBUG, LM Wind Power, TPI Composites, Inc., Zhongfu Lianzhong Composites Group Co., Ltd., Timken Company, Schaeffler AG and ABB Ltd. The commercially relevant division is 36% of 2025 revenue in Wind Turbine, where the volume is, against 19.84% growth in Mooring and Anchoring, where share moves. A supplier weighted toward Europe is competing over a base of USD 21.32 billion in 2025, reaching USD 47.69 billion by 2034 on the trajectory this study models.

12.31% of global revenue is generated in Germany; USD 6.4 billion in 2025, reaching USD 13.2 billion in 2034, and 30.02% of Europe.

Within Europe, the Netherlands accounts for 15.01% of regional revenue and 6.15% of the global total, worth USD 3.2 billion in 2025 and USD 7.4 billion by 2034.

USD 24.7 billion of 2025 revenue is generated in Asia Pacific, 47.5% of the global offshore wind market on the way to USD 72.24 billion by 2034. It is a dominant region on this axis, first by revenue throughout the period.

By 2034 the share has moved up to 50%, at a pace above the 11.97% global rate, so this region warrants separate treatment and should not be scaled off the total.

Segment composition follows the global pattern: Wind Turbine largest at 36% of 2025 revenue, Mooring and Anchoring fastest at 19.84%. The full report breaks Asia Pacific out along every axis and by country.

The largest single market in Asia Pacific is China, at USD 18.4 billion in 2025 and USD 50.2 billion in 2034. At 74.49% of regional revenue in the base year it is not one market among several, the region's trajectory is largely this country's trajectory. Set against USD 24.7 billion and USD 72.24 billion for the region, it is why this market, and not a smaller one, is the one reported in full.

The component pattern in China is the global one: 36% of 2025 revenue in Wind Turbine, 31% by 2034, against 19.84% growth in Mooring and Anchoring taking it from 2% to 3.8%. With 74.49% of Asia Pacific concentrated here, a change in this country's mix is visible in the regional figures instead of being diluted by its neighbours. The full report reports China by component separately.

The National Energy Administration oversees offshore wind planning and project approval, working with the National Development and Reform Commission on pricing and project filing. The Ministry of Natural Resources manages sea-area use rights, and the Ministry of Ecology and Environment requires environmental impact assessment before construction. Maritime safety falls to the Maritime Safety Administration. Suppliers of turbines and major components must comply with national standards and the certification regime run through the China General Certification Center and similar bodies, and projects favour equipment that carries recognised type certification for marine conditions such as typhoon exposure.

In China the field is Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy, S.A., Vestas Wind Systems A/S, Goldwind Science & Technology Co., Ltd., Mingyang Smart Energy Group Co., Ltd., GE Vernova Inc., Envision Energy Co., Ltd., Shanghai Electric Wind Power Group Co., Ltd., Dongfang Electric Corporation Limited, CRRC Corporation Limited, Windey Energy Technology Group Co., Ltd., SANY Renewable Energy Co., Ltd., Sembcorp Marine Ltd, Sif Holding N.V., EEW Group GmbH, Haizea Wind Group, Smulders Projects, Navantia S.A., Nexans S.A., Prysmian S.p.A., NKT A/S, Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd., Hitachi Energy Ltd., Orient Cable (NBO) Co., Ltd., Ningbo Orient Wires & Cables Co., Ltd., Jan De Nul Group, DEME Group NV, Van Oord Dredging and Marine Contractors B.V., Cadeler A/S, Seaway7 ASA, Subsea7 S.A., Saipem S.p.A., Aker Solutions ASA, Ørsted A/S, Equinor ASA, RWE AG, Vattenfall AB, BladeBUG, LM Wind Power, TPI Composites, Inc., Zhongfu Lianzhong Composites Group Co., Ltd., Timken Company, Schaeffler AG and ABB Ltd. Wind Turbine, at 36% of 2025 revenue, is where the volume sits, and Mooring and Anchoring, growing at 19.84%, is where position changes hands over the forecast period. The commercial size of that position is USD 24.7 billion in 2025 and USD 72.24 billion by 2034, 47.5% of the global total in the base year.

3.08% of global revenue is generated in Taiwan; USD 1.6 billion in 2025, reaching USD 6.5 billion in 2034, and 6.48% of Asia Pacific.

1.73% of global revenue is generated in Japan; USD 0.9 billion in 2025, reaching USD 4.8 billion in 2034, and 3.64% of Asia Pacific.

1.5% of the global offshore wind market sits in Latin America in 2025, worth USD 0.78 billion with USD 2.89 billion projected for 2034. That makes it the fifth-largest region covered, in 2025 and again in 2034.

By 2034 the share has moved up to 2%, because it outgrows the market's 11.97%; the revenue added here is disproportionate to where the region started.

Within the region the component split tracks the global one; 36% of 2025 revenue in Wind Turbine, fastest growth of 19.84% in Mooring and Anchoring. Per-axis and per-country detail for Latin America sits in the full report.

51.28% of Latin America's base-year revenue comes from Brazil; USD 0.4 billion, rising to USD 1.6 billion by 2034. Its 51.28% of base-year regional revenue leads the region, though enough sits elsewhere that Latin America is not a proxy for it. The region itself runs USD 0.78 billion to USD 2.89 billion over the same period, and this is the market carrying the country-level detail in the full report.

Brazil buys along the same lines as the market globally; Wind Turbine first at 36% of 2025 revenue and 31% in 2034, Mooring and Anchoring fastest at 19.84% on a share moving from 2% to 3.8%. Its 51.28% weight in Latin America means those movements carry straight into the regional totals. Brazil carries its own component breakdown in the full report.

Brazil has set the legal framework for offshore wind through a dedicated law governing the use of marine areas for power generation. The Ministry of Mines and Energy runs area allocation, and the national electricity regulator, ANEEL, authorises generation and grid access. The environmental agency IBAMA conducts licensing, while the Navy and the national petroleum agency are consulted on maritime use and overlap with existing offshore activity. Suppliers must satisfy Brazilian technical standards and local grid code requirements, and equipment is expected to carry recognised international design certification, with local content questions tied to financing programmes.

Competition in Brazil runs between the suppliers this study tracks: Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy, S.A., Vestas Wind Systems A/S, Goldwind Science & Technology Co., Ltd., Mingyang Smart Energy Group Co., Ltd., GE Vernova Inc., Envision Energy Co., Ltd., Shanghai Electric Wind Power Group Co., Ltd., Dongfang Electric Corporation Limited, CRRC Corporation Limited, Windey Energy Technology Group Co., Ltd., SANY Renewable Energy Co., Ltd., Sembcorp Marine Ltd, Sif Holding N.V., EEW Group GmbH, Haizea Wind Group, Smulders Projects, Navantia S.A., Nexans S.A., Prysmian S.p.A., NKT A/S, Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd., Hitachi Energy Ltd., Orient Cable (NBO) Co., Ltd., Ningbo Orient Wires & Cables Co., Ltd., Jan De Nul Group, DEME Group NV, Van Oord Dredging and Marine Contractors B.V., Cadeler A/S, Seaway7 ASA, Subsea7 S.A., Saipem S.p.A., Aker Solutions ASA, Ørsted A/S, Equinor ASA, RWE AG, Vattenfall AB, BladeBUG, LM Wind Power, TPI Composites, Inc., Zhongfu Lianzhong Composites Group Co., Ltd., Timken Company, Schaeffler AG and ABB Ltd. Volume sits in Wind Turbine at 36% of 2025 revenue; movement sits in Mooring and Anchoring at 19.84% growth. A supplier weighted toward Latin America is competing over a base of USD 0.78 billion in 2025, reaching USD 2.89 billion by 2034 on the trajectory this study models.

Within Latin America, Mexico accounts for 19.23% of regional revenue and 0.29% of the global total, worth USD 0.15 billion in 2025 and USD 0.6 billion by 2034.

3% of the global offshore wind market sits in Middle East and Africa in 2025, worth USD 1.56 billion and reaches USD 5.78 billion by 2034. By revenue it sits fourth across the study, and the ranking does not change between 2025 and 2034.

Share climbs to 4% by 2034, at a pace above the 11.97% global rate, so this region warrants separate treatment and should not be scaled off the total.

Within the region the component split tracks the global one; 36% of 2025 revenue in Wind Turbine, fastest growth of 19.84% in Mooring and Anchoring. Middle East and Africa is reported axis by axis and country by country in the full study.

38.46% of Middle East and Africa's base-year revenue comes from South Africa; USD 0.6 billion, rising to USD 2.3 billion by 2034. 38.46% of the region in the base year makes it the largest market here without making it the region. Against regional totals of USD 1.56 billion in 2025 and USD 5.78 billion in 2034, it is the country the full report breaks out in detail.

South Africa buys along the same lines as the market globally; Wind Turbine first at 36% of 2025 revenue and 31% in 2034, Mooring and Anchoring fastest at 19.84% on a share moving from 2% to 3.8%. Because the country carries 38.46% of Middle East and Africa, a movement in its own mix shows up in the regional totals instead of being averaged away by neighbouring markets. Revenue by component for South Africa is reported separately in the full report.

Offshore wind has no mature dedicated regime in South Africa, so developers work through the general electricity and environmental framework. The Department of Mineral Resources and Energy sets policy and runs procurement, and the National Energy Regulator of South Africa issues generation licences. Environmental authorisation comes from the Department of Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment under the National Environmental Management Act, with coastal and marine permissions layered on top. Maritime safety sits with the South African Maritime Safety Authority. Suppliers should expect to prove conformity with international wind turbine standards and grid code compliance, and local participation requirements apply in public procurement.
