Company NextEra Energy Resources Country (MW) United States 1,505 developer. As a result, particularly in the United States, many of the largest owner/operators provide their own O&M services.66 Throughout the wind services industry there has been a rise in vertical integration, and a growing number of OEMs, project developers, and large engineering firms offer end-to- end services along the projected life cycle.67 Despite this integration, most projects still involve multiple service providers, and even the largest project developers typically contract out specialized services, such as power systems engineering, to niche firms. Services in Project Development and in Construction and Installation Over the past decade, explosive growth in cumulative installed wind capacity in the United States drove concurrent growth in the project development market. A large number of firms offer project development services in the U.S. market, with the top five firms accounting for about 32 percent of installations in 2012 (table 4.2).68 OEMs are reportedly providing increased competition to the largest project developers, by funding smaller developers who otherwise would not be able to compete against large firms such as Iberdrola.69 As a result, the project development market has become successively less concentrated over the past five years. Whereas at the recent peak of development, in 2009, the 10 largest developers installed over 75 percent of new capacity, in 2011, the 10 leading developers accounted for less than 60 percent.70 TABLE 4.2 U.S. wind energy services: Top five project developers by capacity Installed in 2012 installed in 2012 Percent of 2012 installations (%) 11.5 5.5 5.0 4.9 4.7 68.5 100 Spain 716 France 658 United States 640 United States 620 T otal 13,131 Source: Del Franco, “AWEA Reveals,” April 11, 2013; AWEA, AWEA U.S. Wind Industry Annual Market Report: Year Ending 2012, 2013, 12.

U.S. project developers not only design and build wind projects, but many also maintain ownership and operate these facilities. Industry sources estimate that 90 percent of wind farms built are owned by project developers who sell the energy under a PPA. Statistics suggest that in 2011, independent power producers (such as project developers) owned 73 percent of all new capacity additions.
