GWEC launches its official market
intelligence platform in Bilbao
/////////////////////////////
as new data and trends emerge throughout
the year. The scope and focus of this
platform will closely follow industry priorities
to open up new business opportunities and
emerging markets for our members. I am
looking forward to further developing the
platform, as well as other GWEC Market
Intelligence services, while maintaining a
strong baseline of databases and insights
that the industry can rely on.”
T
he Global Wind Energy Council
(GWEC) launched its market
intelligence platform during a press
conference at WindEurope 2019 in Bilbao.
GWEC Market Intelligence provides a series
of insights and data-based analysis on the
development of the global wind industry and
is now accessible online for GWEC members.
GWEC Market Intelligence derives its insights
from its own comprehensive databases, local
knowledge and input from leading industry
experts. The market intelligence services
are built on top of the existing GWEC
reports and statistics, as well as reports and
databases from FTI Intelligence, which have
now been transferred to GWEC under a
signed agreement. With this agreement, FTI
Consulting granted GWEC the Intellectual
Property Rights for the consultancy’s Global
Wind Market Update, Global Wind Supply
Chain Update, Offshore Wind Report and
Emerging Market Reports, as well as all the
associated databases.

Ben Backwell, CEO at GWEC, said: “I am
pleased to announce the launch of GWEC
Market Intelligence services to the global
wind industry. Our market intelligence team
consists of its very own wind energy experts
who collaborate with our regional and country
members as well as our corporate members to
provide high-level and reliable data. Bringing
the high-quality databases and reports from
FTI Consulting’s Clean Energy Intelligence
unit into GWEC’s own intelligence is an
important achievement for the association
and ensures that our market intelligence
services will not only bring extra value to
our GWEC members, but can also support
the growth of the global wind industry and
acceleration of the energy transition.”
