해상 풍력 케이블 시장 기회, 성장 촉진요인, 산업 동향 분석, 예측(2025-2034년)

The Global Offshore Wind Cable Market was valued at USD 3.5 billion in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 28.2% to reach USD 39.9 billion by 2034.

The growth is driven by rapid advancements in cable manufacturing and installation technologies that continue to lower operational costs, making large-scale offshore wind projects more financially feasible. Collaborations and evolving logistics frameworks are improving cable accessibility, further strengthening market dynamics. As environmental regulations tighten, there is a growing push to design sustainable and eco-conscious submarine cable solutions. Industry leaders are also adopting cable recycling and reuse practices to minimize environmental disruption. Standardization across production and deployment methods is enhancing consistency and performance, leading to better cost control and long-term reliability. Government incentives and financial support for renewable energy development are further accelerating the deployment of offshore wind infrastructure. The rise in offshore wind farm installations demands robust subsea connectivity to ensure reliable transmission of electricity generated offshore to land-based grids, reinforcing the strategic importance of wind cables in the broader energy landscape. As manufacturers aim for resilience and scalability, the offshore wind cable industry is witnessing unprecedented investment and expansion globally.

The inter-array cable segment is projected to reach USD 1.9 billion by 2034, fueled by the increasing installation of high-capacity renewable energy facilities and advancements in engineering technologies for deep-water developments. Manufacturers are focusing on minimizing maintenance and operational disruptions, while also driving down installation expenses. Favorable attributes such as lower transmission losses and reduced project execution costs make inter-array cables a preferred choice for offshore operators.

The copper segment will reach USD 37.5 billion by 2034. Copper's high durability, exceptional conductivity, and resistance to corrosion under seabed conditions continue to drive its widespread usage in offshore installations. It withstands surge loads and harsh environments, making it ideal for high-voltage inter-array systems. Growing integration of 66kV inter-array systems, which are primarily copper-based, is further expected to support segment growth in the coming decade.

U.S. Offshore Wind Cable Market was valued at USD 510 million in 2024. The rise of large-scale renewable energy efforts combined with significant technical capacity across offshore zones has positioned the U.S. as a key player. The demand for bundled service offerings along with wind cable systems and efforts to scale up engineering expertise is helping shape North America market momentum going forward.

Key players driving the Offshore Wind Cable Industry include Sumitomo Electric Industries, ZTT, KEI Industries, C.S. Cable Corp., Seaway7, NKT A/S, Cavicel, LEONI, Hydro Group, Nexans, Prysmian Group, KEC International, Furukawa Electric, Fujikura Ltd., JDR Cable Systems, Hellenic Cables, Ningbo Orient Wires & Cables, Orient Cable, Hengtong Group, and LS Cable & System. These companies are actively expanding their manufacturing capacity and reinforcing their global presence across emerging wind markets. Leading companies in the Offshore Wind Cable Market are aggressively scaling their global operations by establishing regional manufacturing hubs and securing long-term supply contracts. To improve reliability and performance, firms are investing in R&D to develop high-voltage cable systems capable of operating under harsh seabed conditions. Sustainability is also central, with increased focus on recyclable materials and eco-friendly cable designs. Strategic alliances and mergers are enabling access to advanced technologies and reducing development risk.
