2008 was a record year for turbine suppliers, driven by surging US and China markets. Newer entrants gained the most market share in 2008, while established players generally maintained or lost between 0.5% and 2% market share of total MW installed. Increasing market fragmentation in 2008-coupled with construction delays in 2009 due to the global financial crisis-points to an intense market share battle in 2009-2010 as more firms fight for fewer orders.
