Wind Turbine Pitch and Yaw Drive Market Size

Wind Turbine Pitch and Yaw Drive Market Size

Wind Turbine Pitch and Yaw Drive Market was valued USD 5.4 billion in 2023 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 7.4% from 2024 to 2032. The pitch drive system in a wind turbine is a crucial mechanism that controls the angle of the turbine blades relative to the wind. The primary functions of the pitch drive include maximizing energy capture, protecting the turbine from extreme wind loads, and facilitating braking and shutdown procedures during maintenance or emergencies. Yaw drive system on the other side is responsible for orienting the turbine's rotor toward the wind direction.
