Market by Capacity, Source, and Regional Outlook | Forecast 2023-2028
Power generation facilities located on a platform floating in a body of water are called floating power plants. These power plants serve as the main and backup power sources for a particular facility. In floating power plants, energy can be generated from both renewable (solar, wind, others) and non-renewable (diesel, liquefied natural gas, thermal, nuclear) sources. In addition, these power plants offer the special advantage of being mobile, making them ideal for temporary power generation to bridge local power shortages.
The floating power plant vessels can generate electricity until a local power plant is built or temporarily provide additional electricity, for example, during a major construction project. Therefore, this technology is of interest to developing countries that want to expand their energy infrastructure to promote economic growth. These floating power plants can be towed or self-propelled to wherever they are needed, which can help to alleviate temporary power shortages following natural disasters like earthquakes and floods.
According to Triton Market Research’s analysis, the Global Floating Power Plant Market is likely to reach a CAGR of 10.74% over the forecast period 2023-2028. The market was valued at $10010.11 million in 2022 and is expected to reach a revenue of $18926.68 million by 2028.

MARKET PERFORMANCE: DRIVERS, CHALLENGES, AND OPPORTUNITIES
Growing government investment in the energy sector and an increasing number of installed floating power plants are driving the floating power plants market’s growth. The floating power plant market has undergone significant changes since companies have been heavily supporting the use of renewable energy sources, such as solar, wind, and others, for power generation. The floating power plant market in the region is expected to grow significantly over the forecast period owing to increasing demand for clean energy and a host of advantages over land-based power plants.
However, the market is hampered by restraints, such as the technical challenges of floating power plants and high costs. The high capital costs associated with shipping, logistics, and accessibility are the major issues preventing the expansion of the European floating power plant business. The lack of experienced labor to install solar panels on water bodies is another market constraint.
In addition, the market for floating power
plants is becoming more profitable due to the expansion of offshore wind
projects. There are many
untapped markets in the world that are promising for the offshore wind energy
sector. According to Brazil’s Minister of Mines and Energy, offshore wind farm
contracts were to be included in the country’s energy auctions starting in
2022. In addition, with the latest draft of the Power Master Plan VIII,
Vietnam’s Deputy Prime Minister
instructed the Ministry of Industry and Trade to expand offshore wind while
reducing solar capacity in 2022. By 2035, offshore wind could generate 12% of
Vietnam’s electricity, according to the ministry’s plan.

SEGMENTATION ANALYSIS – FLOATING POWER PLANT MARKET:
• Market by Capacity:
o 0MW-
5MW
o 5.1
MW- 20 MW
o 20
MW- 100 MW
o 100.1
MW- 250 MW
o Above 250 MW
20 MW- 100 MW is expected to progress with the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Gas turbines, IC engines, and other devices that generate energy between 20.1 MW and 100 MW from a variety of sources, including natural gas, fossil fuels (non-renewable sources), solar, wind, and others, are included in the segment. Most of the electricity generated by these floating power plants comes from renewable energy sources such as solar and wind. They also offer advantages such as ease of relocation and reliable power supply during natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods.
• Market by Source:
o Non-Renewable
Power Source
o Renewable Power Source
Non-renewable power sources
lead the market in terms of revenue. The energy produced from thermal, natural gas,
nuclear, and fossil fuel sources (petroleum, coal, etc.) is included in the
section. These energy sources are most often used to generate electricity using
gas turbines, IC, and other engines. Gas turbines can burn a variety of gaseous
and liquid fuels to achieve high efficiency and excellent emission levels. As a
result, they are often used in offshore platforms for the oil and gas sector.
By utilizing non-renewable energy sources, such as nuclear power, floating
power plants offer significant advantages, such as easy trading or relocation
and a secure power supply during natural disasters.
