New Zealand Wind Energy Market Analysis
The market for wind energy in New Zealand is expected to register a CAGR of more than 9% in the forecast period, 2020-2025. Factors, such as supportive government policies and efforts to meet power demand using renewables, and to decrease dependency on fossil fuel-based power generation, are expected to significantly contribute to the market growth. The declining costs of renewable technologies are becoming competitive with fossil fuel sources, and additional subsidies on renewables are driving the renewable market further. On the other hand, stagnant growth in the wind energy installations due to the absence of any new initiatives and demand and limited power capacity by variable renewable energy sources and other factors are expected to hinder the growth of the market in the coming years.
Although wind energy growth in New Zealand has been stagnant till 2019, with more than 1300 MW of consented wind projects and more than 500 MW of applied wind projects are going to drive the wind market during the forecast period.
The Government of New Zealand is aiming to achieve 90% of its electricity generation from renewables by 2025 by its National Power Scheme, 2011. Under which emphasis on different renewables sources, including on wind energy, is given. This, in turn, is expected to create significant opportunities for the players involved in the market in the near future.
New Zealand, with its ambitious upcoming renewable projects, is all set to achieve its renewable growth of 100% electricity generation from renewable by 2035. New Zealand has significant wind projects under construction that are expected to become operational in the forecast period.
