The significant increase in fuel prices and rising pollution levels are anticipated to drive growth in the green technology and sustainability market in the coming years. The surge in fuel prices refers to the escalating costs of gasoline in the global market. Pollution results from various human activities, including the use of fossil fuels in industries and transportation, as well as the application of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides in agriculture. Consequently, there is a growing demand for green technology and sustainability solutions to harness renewable energy sources such as solar panels, wind turbines, dams, and geothermal wells. For instance, in July 2024, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), a U.S.-based agency, reported that U.S. greenhouse gas emissions increased by 0.2% in 2022 compared to 2021, totaling 6,343.2 million metric tons of CO2 equivalent. Therefore, the sharp rise in fuel prices and escalating pollution levels will continue to drive the green technology and sustainability market.
The increasing demand for eco-friendly products is projected to boost the growth of the green technology and sustainability market in the coming years. Eco-friendly products, also known as green products, are developed, designed, and used in ways that have minimal environmental impact. These products play a crucial role in green technology by promoting sustainable practices and mitigating the environmental effects of various activities. For example, in May 2023, the Organic Trade Association, a U.S.-based organization, reported that organic food sales in the United States exceeded $60 billion for the first time in 2022, marking a significant milestone for the thriving organic sector, with total sales reaching $61.7 billion. Therefore, the rising demand for eco-friendly products is a key driver of the green technology and sustainability market.
Technological advancements and the integration of innovative solutions represent prominent trends shaping the landscape of the green technology and sustainability market. Industry players are heavily investing in technological enhancements to offer sustainable alternatives while reducing reliance on fossil resources. ABB Ltd.'s launch of the ABB Ability OPTIMAX in November 2022 is a prime example. This energy management system caters to hydrogen manufacturing firms, curbing electricity-related expenses by up to 20%. It integrates forecasting and intra-day planning, enabling businesses to competitively trade with the grid.
Strategic partnerships stand as a strategic approach adopted by major players in the green technology and sustainability markets to expedite the transition to a net-zero economy. These partnerships leverage collective strengths and resources for mutual benefit. Salesforce Inc.'s collaboration with AT&T Inc., announced in June 2023, is a prime illustration. Salesforce is set to join AT&T's Connected Climate Initiative (CCI), aiming to reduce greenhouse emissions by one gigaton by 2035. By harnessing connectivity technologies like IoT, 5G, and edge computing, the CCI assembles business leaders, universities, and non-profit organizations toward this ambitious goal. AT&T spearheads this initiative within the telecommunications sphere in the United States.
In January 2023, AcBel Polytech Inc., a company based in Taiwan, acquired ABB's Power Conversion division for $505 million. This acquisition allows AcBel Polytech to enhance its portfolio by leveraging ABB's expertise in delivering green technologies that promote sustainability. ABB Ltd, headquartered in Switzerland, specializes in providing green technologies.
