DUBLIN, Sept 3, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

The "Wind Turbine Bearings: Market Shares, Strategies, and Forecasts, Worldwide, 2018-2024" report from Wintergreen Research, Inc has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global wind turbine bearing market is expected to be $9.6 billion in 2024 driven by the availability and cost effectiveness of new, stronger, more efficient bearings. Next generation bearings permit wind turbines to produce more power, operate in a less expensive manner, and last longer before bearing replacement. The adoption of the widespread use of new bearings makes the turbine devices an optimized choice for renewable energy generation.

The vendors in the wind bearings industry have invested in high-quality technology and processes to develop leading-edge wind turbine capability a being implemented in the onshore and offshore sites.

There are a number of different bearing designs that can be found in the gearbox of a wind turbine, but most often, various combinations of CRBs, TRBs and ball bearings are used.

If the bearings are bigger, the bearings last longer but making the bearings larger increases friction, which decreases turbine efficiency. Current bearings have a replacement cost that is too high. What we need is a quantum leap in bearing technology - bearing materials which are at least ten times tougher than current materials.
