The global Wind Power Sling market size is predicted to grow from US$ million in 2025 to US$ million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of %from 2025 to 2031.
Wind turbine sling, also known as blade sling or wind turbine blade sling, is a special lifting device designed to safely and efficiently handle wind turbine blades during transportation, installation and maintenance. Wind turbine blades are large and heavy, usually ranging in length from 40 meters to 80 meters, and weighing up to 25 tons. Due to the size and weight of wind turbine blades, lifting and handling wind turbine blades is a challenging task, requiring special equipment to ensure the safety of workers and prevent blade damage. Wind slings are usually made of high-strength synthetic fibers such as polyester or aramid. They are designed to evenly distribute the weight of the blades, minimize the stress on the blades and reduce the risk of damage. Slings are usually adjustable, allowing them to adapt to blades of different sizes and shapes.
According to the Global Wind Report 2023 released by the Global Wind Energy Council, by 2024, the newly installed capacity of global onshore wind power will exceed 100GW for the first time; by 2025, the newly installed capacity of global offshore wind power will also reach 25GW. In the next five years, the newly added grid-connected capacity of wind power will reach 680GW. The report also shows that the United States and Europe may experience a supply bottleneck of wind turbines and components in 2025. It recommends that national policymakers take immediate action to increase investment in supply chains to meet their rapid growth in demand and avoid supply chain bottlenecks hindering the development of wind power. In addition, according to Wood Mackenzie statistics, China is the largest and fastest-growing market for wind power generation in the world, accounting for more than half of the market share. Data from the National Energy Administration of China also shows that China""s installed wind power capacity ranks first in the world, with a capacity of nearly 400 million kilowatts.
