The clean energy market was valued at US$ 479.62 billion in 2019 and is projected to reach US$ 1,229.74 billion by 2027 The clean energy market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 13.0% during the forecast period from 2020 to 2027.
In recent decades, industrialization, coupled with the rising population and urbanization, has gained massive traction across the world, especially in Asian countries. With this rapid transformation, energy needs were majorly sufficed by fossil fuels, which, over time, caused havoc to the sustainability of ecology. As the world is experiencing severe consequences of climate change, clean energy sources have started gaining traction across the world. The contemporary major sources of clean energy that can replace fossil fuels are solar, wind, water bodies and ocean, biofuel, geothermal, and wind. At the beginning of the 21st century, the renewable sources of energy were contributing a minimal amount to the entire energy supply of the world; but in recent years, clean energy sources are significantly contributing to the total energy supply of the world.
Among all clean energy sources, hydro energy sources initially held the largest share in the total clean energy consumption and the overall clean energy market, but recently solar and wind have contributed significantly. Marine energy sources are currently in the nascent stage; but they are anticipated to gain huge market share in the clean energy market coming years due to increasing investments in the development of innovative ocean energy converters. Meanwhile, solar and bioenergy are getting hugely implemented across numerous industry verticals and finding its applications in commercial and household for clean energy related projects.
Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Clean Energy Market
The COVID-19 outbreak has adversely affected various industries in the world, including the energy and power generation industry. Owing to the implementation of containment measures worldwide, clean energy segments such as solar, wind, bioenergy, and hydro and ocean are experiencing restrictions on supply chain, unavailability of human resources, and disruptions in timelines of ongoing and scheduled projects. The global contribution of renewable energy increased by 1.5% in the first half of 2020 compared with first half of that in 2019 as few conventional power plants were shut due to containment measures. However, the majority (70%) of solar PVs are sourced from China, while wind energy supply is more diversified in terms of manufacturers and supplier in Europe, India, and China, as well as various states in the US, and the ill-effects of the pandemic on these geographies is hampering the global supply chain activities.
