Global Wave and Tidal Energy Market
Insights
Carbon emission level has reached an alarming point
globally, and with this concern, it has evolved with the development of many
renewable energy sources, one of which is a wave and tidal energy. The global
wave & tidal energy market is currently fragmented at large portions,
observes Market Research Future. The global Wave
and Tidal Energy Market Size is set to portray its potential earnings
worth USD 15,291.2 Million, having an expansion of its size at a CAGR of 17.84%.
This growth graph is anticipated to go upwards by the year 2023
Wave energy is referred to as the energy of the ocean
surface waves for the generation of electricity, desalination, and pumping of
water into reservoirs. Wave & tidal energy is the most promising
technologies of the current time owing to advance in research and technology.
Also, wave and tidal energy is plugged to be the next significant technological
innovation that can accommodate a large amount of the world's energy
consumption.
With the concern to provide constant power generation,
oceans could be the largest reserves of clean and sustainable energy as well as
meet the part of energy demand across the world. Oceans are considered to be an
inexhaustible source of clean energy.
Global Wave and Tidal Market Drivers &
Trends
Over the world, the massive interest in harvesting
wave and tidal energy sources to leverage limitless electricity generation has
been one of the primary factors for the market to rise. The advancements in
wave energy converter technologies have enabled the existing market players to
reap the benefits from the potential of wave and tidal energy sources.
As the market is going well, it has been recorded in
reports that the wave & tidal market is currently treading on a prosperous
path owing to the increasing consumption of electricity across the globe. The
wave & tidal energy market has become more realistic and is contributing a
lot in generating power especially in distant remote sites where grid
connections can neither be cost-effective nor feasible. With the help of
gravitational forces of Earth, Sun and Moon, the wave & tide converters are
able to provide a constant source of energy. This factor is immensely
supporting the wave & tidal market to rise at a higher CAGR.
The global wave & tidal market is witnessing a
higher rise owing to an increase in the expansion of projects across countries
and is turning into a massive cost reduction in electricity generation and
consumption. On the same time, the rise in investments and introduction of new
policies and decline of the traditional resources of energy such as natural
gas, coal, and oil influence the critical developers for rapid
commercialization of energy converter devices. This factor has also created
high scope for the new players to enter the market by introducing advanced
technologies. The unique factor that is making this market to grow prosperously
is the increased opportunities for the development of tidal stream plants that
are new technology invention. Hence, the market will also prosper in terms of
investments made upon it.
On the flip side, the factor of high initial cost of
investment required to make especially for the weak economy and underdeveloped
regions could hinder the market growth in the years to come. However, some of
the key companies in this market are cooperating in concert to decrease the
high initial cost of investment by slowing down the tariff rates.
Global Wave & Tidal Market
Segmentation
In the reports of MRFR, the market for wave & tidal
market has been segmented by type which includes wave energy and tidal energy.
Among them, tidal energy is referred to as a mature form of energy, which gets
classifies into the tidal stream and tidal range energy.
Wave energy is a new concept which is anticipated to
rise significantly during the forecast period owing to the capital investments
and tremendous benefits from it.
Regional Outlook: Global Wave & Tidal
Market
Regionally, the global wave and tidal energy market size
have covered the major regions of North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and Rest
of the World.
Among these, Europe is currently leading contributor
to the market of wave & tidal owing to share the largest revenues from
investments made. Apart from this, the market is also expected to witness some
major developments as well in the years to come. This region also hosts several
key developers of the market with 52% of tidal stream and 60% of wave energy
developers.
Meanwhile, Asia Pacific is also witnessing a
considerable amount of market stableness at a higher CAGR in the forecast
period. The rise is contributed owing to the tidal barrage operations in South
Korea, which is taking the global market of wave & tidal on prosperous rise
path. Besides, Australia is also expected to make a more substantial
contribution to the growing revenue of wave and tidal energy market.
Next comes the North America, where the global wave
& tidal energy market is expected to account for significant growth over
the forecast period attributing to the increasing investment in the renewable
energy along with rising demand from the industrial sector the U.S. which is
considered a global leader in the energy production industry.
