Report Scope
This report covers the major sources of renewable energy as primary fuels: hydroelectric, wind, solar, geothermal and oceanic sources (wave, tidal and thermal). This study will be useful for both renewable technology and material suppliers along with power generation companies which produce power through renewable resources. It will be helpful for companies making decisions such as estimating market demand for technologies and materials, making expansion and upgrade plans for existing facilities, deciding on investments in renewable energy sectors, etc.
This report intensively deals with power generation through renewable resources and therefore does not focus on other applications of renewable resources. However, it provides basic data on applications such as heating and lighting.
The scope of this report is intentionally wide. We cover the major sources of renewable energy as primary fuels—hydroelectric, wind, solar, geothermal and oceanic sources (wave, tidal and thermal) and liquid biofuels for transportation. There is no shortage in the marketplace of reports on each of these sources. However, what existing reports lack and what this report is intended to provide is a global perspective that places each source in a relevant context for decision makers in both the public and private sectors.
In particular, this report includes:
- An overview of the global market for renewable energy and technologies.
- Analyses of global market trends, with data from 2017 and 2018 and projections through 2023.
- Coverage of the major sources of renewable energy as primary fuels including: hydroelectric, wind, solar, geothermal and oceanic sources (wave, tidal and thermal).
- Examination of the impact on the renewable energy market brought about by surging global demand for energy, the impact of climate change on alternative fuels, improvements in technology and the availability of new materials.
- Comprehensive profiles of major players in the field and technology patents.
