Europe Doppler Wind Lidar System Market Trends and Analysis by 2028

The doppler wind lidar system market in Europe is expected to grow from US$ 381.14 million in 2021 to US$ 632.87 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 7.5% from 2021 to 2028.

The UK, Russia, and Germany are major economies in Europe. Rise in government initiatives and investments to promote use of wind energy is the major factor driving the growth of the Europe doppler wind lidar system market. Wind energy is highly adopted as a sustainable alternative to electricity generation. Government bodies worldwide established several windmills projects across their countries to produce electricity and reduce the carbon footprint of the country. In the last couple of decades, the amount of wind energy generated has increased dramatically. Technological advancements in wind energy help reduce the cost of electricity generation from the wind, while government and economic incentives by countries across the world have aided growth in wind power. Europe is also taking initiatives to promote the use of wind energy across the region. According to the European Union, Europe has the largest (70% of total) floating wind energy capacity across the world. The European government is also investing in floating substructures or integrated floating wind energy systems for deep waters and to use them in various climate conditions. The initiative expands deployment options and strengthens Europe's position on the global stage. The government is currently focusing on the North Sea, which has relatively shallow water, for offshore wind generation in Europe. However, as floating technologies mature, greater attention has recently been directed to the Mediterranean and Atlantic coasts. These wind energy plants are increasing adoption the doppler wind lidar systems to measure the velocity of wind. This measurement also enables them to analyze the electricity generated at each velocity. Thus, the increasing government initiatives for the adoption of wind energy across the world propel the demand for doppler wind lidar systems in wind energy plants, which is further anticipated to drive the market in Europe.

Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, Russia, the UK, France, Italy, Spain, and Germany are a few of the worst affected member states in Europe. Businesses in the region face severe economic difficulties as they had to suspend their operations or substantially reduce their activities. Due to business lockdowns, travel bans, and supply chain disruptions, Europe experienced an economic slowdown in 2020 and most likely, the impacts are expected to prevail in 2021. The doppler wind lidar system manufacturers in Europe rely highly on China for the supply of component. The sudden pandemic of COVID-19 outbreak and temporary closure of all economic activities, both inter and intra nations, negatively impacted the overall manufacturing process, thereby hindered the growth of the doppler wind lidar system market in Europe.Moreover, the demand for doppler wind lidar systems experienced a decline during the COVID-19 outbreak. The closure of airports, further leading to their declining investments in technology, is lowered the demand for these systems. Additionally, with respect to wind energy plants of the region, onshore construction activity slowed from February to April as a result of COVID-19 measures, owing to supply chain interruptions and logistical issues in many countries, while delays induced by the crisis have only had a minor impact on the offshore wind sector due to long project lead times. Thus, the doppler wind lidar system market in Europe is adversely impacted due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
