With the acceleration of global new energy transformation, the installed capacity of offshore wind power continues to grow rapidly. According to data from the Global Wind Energy Council, the new installed capacity of global offshore wind power exceeded 28GW in 2026, a year-on-year increase of 34%, directly driving the explosive demand for marine engineering steel structures such as booster stations, foundation piles, towers, and offshore booster platforms. It is estimated that the global marine engineering steel structure market will exceed 180 billion yuan in 2027.
The rapid advancement of deep-sea wind power projects has put forward higher requirements for steel structure materials and construction technologies: corrosion resistance, fatigue resistance, and impact resistance in marine environments have become core indicators, driving the rapid iteration of new metal materials such as marine atmospheric corrosion-resistant steel, high-performance anti-corrosion coatings, and high-strength toughness welding materials. At the same time, technologies such as overall hoisting of large components and underwater construction are also continuously breaking through.
To meet the industry demand in the new energy field, STEEL BUILD 2027 adds a Marine Engineering & New Energy Steel Structure Exhibition Area, gathering enterprises in marine steel structure materials, anti-corrosion technology, processing equipment and other fields. In the same period, it will also hold a new energy steel structure technology exchange meeting to build an industrial supply and demand docking platform.
