Renewable energy refers to energy derived from natural sources such as the sun and wind, which are continually replenished. This type of energy is employed for various purposes, including space and water heating and cooling, electricity generation, and transportation. Renewable energy is associated with several benefits, including reduced global warming, enhanced public health, a virtually limitless energy supply, stable energy prices, reliability, and resilience.
The primary types of renewable energy include solar energy, wind energy, bioenergy, hydro energy, and geothermal energy. Solar energy harnesses sunlight to power homes, buildings, water heating, and solar lights. It is categorized by different capacities, such as 0-1,000 kWh, 1,100-5,000 kWh, and more than 5,000 kWh, catering to residential, commercial, industrial, utility, and other applications.
The renewable energy market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides renewable energy market statistics, including the renewable energy industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a renewable energy market share, detailed renewable energy market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the renewable energy industry. This renewable energy market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The renewable energy market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $1025.93 billion in 2023 to $1109.41 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1%. The expansion observed during the historical period can be attributed to robust growth in emerging markets, an increasing shift towards the use of renewable energy over other energy sources, growing investments in renewable energy sources, and rapid industrialization.
The renewable energy market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1554.65 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.8%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the increasing demand for electricity, rising urbanization, government initiatives, and the growing concerns about greenhouse gas emissions. Key trends expected during the forecast period include a focus on developing innovative technologies, the launch of renewable energy platforms, the integration of blockchain technology, the use of advanced robotics, product launches, partnerships and collaborations, as well as new investments in the renewable energy sector.
The growth of renewable energy is anticipated to be driven by an increase in power consumption globally. This surge in energy demand is attributed to heightened industrial activity and technological advancements in both developing and developed nations. The expanding global population further accelerates energy consumption. Consequently, there is a pressing need to generate renewable energy due to its advantages in enhancing energy security, reducing the risk of fuel spills, eliminating greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuels, and mitigating certain types of air pollution. Enerdata's 2022 report reveals a 5.5% increase in global electricity consumption in 2021, rebounding from a 0.7% contraction in 2020 amid the COVID-19 crisis. The International Energy Agency predicts a 5% increase in worldwide electricity demand in 2021 and a subsequent 4% rise in 2022. Hence, the escalating power consumption is poised to propel the renewable energy market.
The growth of the renewable energy market is expected to be supported by the rise in greenhouse gas emissions. The increase in these emissions, particularly carbon dioxide (CO2), contributes to global warming. A report from the International Energy Agency in March 2023 highlights a 0.9% growth in global energy-related CO2 emissions in 2022, reaching over 36.8 billion tons. This surge in greenhouse gas emissions underscores the urgency of transitioning to renewable energy sources to curb environmental impacts, thereby fostering the growth of the renewable energy market.
A prominent trend in the renewable energy market is technological advancement. The sector is witnessing innovative developments such as bio-mass energy and dual-module solar systems aimed at minimizing environmental consequences and producing sustainable energy. Major companies in the market are investing in research and development to advance their technologies. For instance, Gautam Solar, an India-based solar panels manufacturer, launched the G-2X dual-generation monocrystalline technology solar modules in March 2022. These modules harness power from both the front and back, making them ideal for rooftop and ground-mounted solar power plants. The G-2X mono series achieves combined front and back efficiency of up to 25.72%, providing additional power generation of 10%-30% in the same available space.
Prominent players in the renewable energy market are prioritizing cutting-edge innovations to fortify their market standing. For instance, in September 2022, Serentica Renewables, an India-based company offering end-to-end energy management solutions, unveiled plans to introduce a Renewable Energy Platform in India. This eco-friendly energy company aims to deliver continuous carbon-free power to major energy consumers in India. Its focus lies in providing comprehensive green solutions, including seamless connectivity to the relevant transmission network.
In February 2022, Chevron Corporation, a US-based energy industry giant, completed the acquisition of Renewable Energy Group, Inc., for a substantial sum of $3.15 billion. This strategic acquisition bolsters REG's growing renewable fuel production and advanced feedstock capabilities, leveraging Chevron's extensive production, distribution, and commercial marketing expertise. Renewable Energy Group, Inc., is a biodiesel production company based in the United States.
