US/Canada Wind Power Markets and Strategies 2005-2010
Emerging Energy Research, Dec 2005, Pages: 280
'US/Canada Wind Power Markets and Strategies 2005–2010' analyzes the growth potential and competitive landscape of North American wind energy markets, examining the key regulatory mechanisms that drive wind power growth as well as the market players that define the industry.
The North American wind power market is entering a new phase of growth and maturity, and is quickly approaching the $4 billion mark. In the US, a new PTC extension – a two-year extension adding stability to the market for the first time in a decade – and soaring natural gas prices have quickly boosted wind power into the mainstream. In Canada, record RFP programs are yielding similar record demand. Developers, wind-based IPPs, and turbine manufacturers are scrambling to meet utility demand, while financiers and investors are becoming more receptive every day.
How will your company take advantage of this record level market activity?
This new study provides a strategic road map to wind power markets in these dynamic regions. US/Canada Wind Power Markets and Strategies, 2005–2010, provides thorough analysis of wind energy markets, prospects,
and competitive activities in the region, and analyzes the emerging trends that will define the opportunities in the years ahead :
- FPL Energy has long dominated the US wind IPP space, and was one of the few which could manage the up-and-down patterns of old, but stabilizing regulatory environments, and a growing acceptance of wind has spurred a host of wellfinanced and savvy competitors including PPM Energy, AES, Goldman Sachs- Horizon Wind Energy, Invenergy, Mid-American, and Shell WindEnergy.
- With record demand for turbines, wind turbine suppliers have had trouble keeping up. North American market leaders GE and Vestas have sold out production in the short term, opening the door for a host of new competitors feverishly building capacity to meet demand, including Siemens, Gamesa, Suzlon, Mitsubishi, and Clipper Windpower, with a number of European vendors devising entry strategies.
- Wind project pipelines continue to mount in both the US and Canada, but turbine shortages, pricing pressures, and overall scaling are squeezing out smaller players, while attracting more professional financial backing, transforming the North American wind industry into a mainstream power generation market.
How will these competitive shifts impact your strategy? Do you know what opportunities and threats face your business?
