Canada Wind Energy Market Analysis
The Canada Wind Energy Market size is estimated at 18.17 gigawatt in 2024, and is expected to reach 27.75 gigawatt by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 8.83% during the forecast period (2024-2029).
In 2020, COVID-19 had a detrimental effect on the market. Presently, the market has reached pre-pandemic levels.
- Over the long term, factors such as upcoming new wind projects, the declining costs of wind technologies becoming competitive with fossil fuel sources, and additional subsidies on wind energy systems are further driving the wind energy market.
- On the other hand, in the absence of any new initiatives, an underdeveloped power grid in Canada is expected to hinder the growth of the wind energy market in the coming years.
- Nevertheless, under the 2015 Paris Agreement on Climate Change, Canada is committed to reducing greenhouse gases (GHG) by at least 80% below 2005 levels by 2050. Since, among Canadian renewable energy sources, wind energy contributes low-cost power and flexibility to a modernized electricity grid, this, in turn, is expected to provide a better opportunity for the Canadian wind energy market in the coming future.
