From new capacity point of view, compared with 2009, 2010, the global wind energy industry is relatively stable. As China’s strong growth offset weakness in the U.S. and Europe in 2010, global wind power capacity growth leveled off by 2011 there will be 21% of the rebound, but the price of turbines will remain weak.
It is reported that in 2010 the new onshore and offshore wind power plant is expected to reach 37.7GW, down 2% compared with 2009, but rebounded in 2011 to 45GW. BNEF expected in the next few years, the department will continue to grow in 2012 to 2013 the average annual increment will be 48GW.
China this year than in 2009 and then add more than 25% of installed capacity. According to the analysis, China’s installed capacity increased by a record level of investment-led, third quarter of 2010, China’s share of global investment in new wind power projects nearly half of the funds. Expected about half the world’s wind turbines in China, and network.
And the rapid development of wind turbines compared to the U.S. this year is expected to occur 39% of the decline. U.S. market continues to be from the financial crisis, low price and uncertain, the long-term policy environment challenges. The low price of natural gas is still a matter of concern because it reduces the cost of gas-fired generation, making wind energy project developers to the requirements of utility companies attractive power purchase agreement price becomes more difficult. Wind generators  is not only a matter of fact, the U.S. assets of all types of clean energy financing have remained relatively weak in the third quarter a total of 44 billion U.S. dollars of investment, while in the second quarter was 51 million.
BNEF that in Latin America and Asia from non-traditional wind power market growth, driven by wind power installed capacity was added in 2011 will have a 21% rebound, up to 45GW. And 2010 to 2013, offshore wind power installed capacity will be doubled
