This study reviews previous studies on the scale of offshore wind power industry ecosystems to provide basic data for a revitalization strategy for the offshore wind power industry and proposes an analysis of transaction networks based on the special classification of the renewable energy industry. First, we examine the localization rate, technology level, and price level of the offshore wind industry. Second, this research compares the methodology and estimation results of previous studies estimating the scale of the wind power industry. Third, we examine the details related to the enactment of a special classification of the renewable energy industry statistics and review the Korea Energy Agency's renewable energy industry statistics (focusing on 2019 and 2020). Finally, this study suggests the necessity of analyzing an inter-company transaction network based on special classifications of the renewable energy industry to grasp the status of each region and value chain of the offshore wind industry.
