Hydropower Market - A Global Strategic Business Report
Progressive Markets added a detailed report titled, “Hydropower Market- Size, Trend, Share, Opportunity Analysis, and Forecast, 2014-2025”. As per the findings of the detailed analysis carried out by expert analysts, the global hydropower market is expected to grow at a considerable CAGR during the forecast period. Vital statistics are included to add credibility to the information presented in the hydropower industry report.
Hydropower, a renewable source of energy, is acquired from the kinetic energy of water in motion. It is a highly efficient method for the generation of electricity and has the largest energy payback ratio. The basic components of a hydropower plant include a dam to regulate the flow of water and a reservoir to store the surplus volume of water. The plant also consists of an electric unit to generate electricity. Despite the high initial investments involved in setting up a hydropower plant, it is one of the most affordable and cleanest sources of energy. The absence of fossil fuels eliminates the possibilities of harmful impacts on the environment in the form of toxic wastes or greenhouse gas emissions. These plants have gained widespread popularity owing to their added benefits such as flood control, water management, and the ability to respond to fluctuating demands for electricity and generate electricity during peak times. More than 15% of the world’s electricity is produced using hydropower, with Canada, Brazil, Russia, China, and the U.S. at the forefront of the hydropower industry. The U.S. Department of Energy, 2013, stated that the total operational hydropower capacity of 2,198 plants in the U.S., totaled to 79.64 Gigawatts (GW).
Drivers & Restraints:
Several factors contribute to the growth or failure of the global hydropower market. The report delves into the top impacting factors such as the drivers, restraints, and opportunities available in the market for the organizations to grow. The growing concerns regarding the demand exceeding the supply of fossil fuels have fueled the need for alternate sources of energy. The rise in the number of initiatives undertaken by the government to provide a cleaner environment and to address the issue of depletion of fossil fuels, drive the growth of the market. For instance, in 2013 the Hydropower Regulatory Efficiency Act and Small Conduit Hydropower Development and Rural Jobs Act, passed by Barack is expected to lead to the development and drive the capacity of hydropower in the U.S. The global demand for energy is at its peak owing to the rapid industrialization, thus propelling the growth of the hydropower market.
However, setting up a hydropower plant involves building dams on rivers to control the water flow. Damming rivers may lead to the destruction of the flora and fauna of the affected area. The destruction of natural resources and human habitats restricts the growth of the global hydropower industry.
