Growing awareness about renewable energy has propelled the growth of the global vertical axis wind turbine
market. Though currently most of the commercial scale wind turbines employ horizontal axes, development of new
technologies will boost the demand for vertical axis wind turbines in the near future. The primary difference between
a vertical axis wind turbine and a horizontal axis one is that the primary rotor shaft is set vertically in a vertical axis
wind turbine while all the major generation components are placed at the turbine base.
On the basis of design, the global vertical axis wind turbine market has been categorized into the Darrieus model,
the Savonius model, and the Giromill model. Recent developments in the various models of vertical axis wind
turbines have led to increased efficiency of these turbines over conventional horizontal axis turbines. One of the key
benefits of the vertical axis wind turbine is that it does not require any wind sensing or orientation mechanisms to
generate electricity. This reduces the cost of manufacturing the turbine significantly. Further, the maintenance and
repair of such turbines are easier and convenient compared to horizontal axis turbines. During the forecast horizon,
the majority of vertical axis wind turbine installations are expected to be for decentralized applications and small
pilot projects.
The report studies the vertical axis wind turbine market across five key regions: Europe, Asia Pacific, North America,
Latin America, and the Middle East and Africa. Europe and North America are expected to drive technological
innovations in the market during the forecast horizon. Large-scale installations are likely to be observed in these
regions as well. However, in the U.S., the retraction of the production tax credit scheme is expected to negatively
impact the extent of investments in the development of vertical axis wind turbines. In Asia Pacific, installations of
vertical axis wind turbines are likely to increase with positive test results and significant technological developments
in the market across Europe and North America.
