Renewable Power Generation Market Demand To Reach 12,630.9 TWh By 2027

The global renewable power generation market demand is expected to reach 12,630.9 TWh by 2027, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc., expanding at a CAGR of 7.9% over the forecast period. Switching from conventional fossil fuels to renewable sources is underway to achieve economic, social, and environmental developments. Moreover, such investments in renewable and clean resource sectors are estimated to generate commercial opportunities as well as new jobs.

The world economy will be in the expansion mode after the COVID-19 pandemic, therefore demand for power is expected to increase exponentially in the coming years. This is a result of the higher living standards and economic growth. Fossil fuels currently dominate the present power supply, accounting for almost 60% of the energy increase until 2035. However, the shift towards low carbon fuels, coupled with stringent environment regulations in most of the developed countries, has provided a major boost to renewable energy.

The renewable energy market has witnessed a surge in installation capacity over the past few years on account of growing environmental concerns, coupled with the aim to reduce the harmful effects of greenhouse gasses. This has been a major factor for the expansion of wind energy. Government support to save energy and improve the efficiency will result in propelling growth over the forecast period.

Renewable energy is clean, silent, and freely available. This source of power has also become aesthetically appealing after the implementation of solar panels in residential and commercial buildings. The recent dip in the solar panel prices on account of hardware cost reductions as well as rising focus on tackling soft costs is further projected to augment the installation rates. Despite the extensive research & development costs associated, the major providers of solar panels have successfully reduced design, along with overhead costs.

Europe Building-integrated Photovoltaics Market Size Worth $20.4 Billion By 2027

The Europe building-integrated photovoltaics market size is expected to reach USD 20.4 billion by 2027, expanding at a 27.2% CAGR during the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Rising demand for crystalline silicon (C Si) based Building-integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) generated the premier revenue share on account of the high strength of the product.

Increasing demand for facade integration stems from the growth of building and construction industry, primarily in the developing economies in European region. The introduction of ventilated photovoltaic facades provides superior benefits such as greater yield in low irradiation and high temperature conditions, reduction of acoustic pollution, elimination of thermal barriers, and superior insulation performance.

The demand for building-integrated photovoltaics in Europe is anticipated to grow on account of the rising demand for aesthetically appealing solar energy-harnessing systems. According to a report published in Netherlands titled The Relative Importance of Aesthetics in the Adoption Process of Solar Panels in the Netherlands, aesthetic value of a solar panel is the greatest variable for 40% of buyers once the price is in a reasonable range. Hence, consumer preference towards BIPV products having good aesthetic value is gaining momentum which is anticipated to drive the market for black colored panels in the region during the forecast period.

Germany is one of the top country level market for the Europe accounting for 25.11% of the market share in 2019. The demand for building-integrated photovoltaics in roofs accounted for the highest market share driven by ease of product installation. BIPVs can be installed easily in the building roofs post-construction of the building as it requires minimal renovations. Besides, the segment has realized high technological advancements, which is expected to result in a decline in the overall installation costs leading to market growth over the forecast period.

Rising concerns regarding environmental pollution caused using non-renewable sources of energy are anticipated to drive the Europe BIPV market over the forecast period. The demand for the integration of photovoltaics stems from the superior aesthetic properties they impart. Building-integrated photovoltaics can replace regular roofs, windows, and building walls without compromising the aesthetics of the building, thereby leading to an increased adoption.

The presence of significant industry participants such as AGC Inc.; Canadian Solar; UAB GLASSBEL BALTIC; Onyx Solar Group Inc.; BiPVco; ISSOL sa; Heliatek GmBH; Polysolar; Flisom; ertex solartechnik GmbH; and Hanergy Mobile Energy Holding Group Limited will further aid market penetration.
