Hydropower Market | Industry Growth, Trends and Forecast Upto 2020
The global installed capacity for hydropower is expected to reach 1,524 GW by 2020,
according to a new study by Grand View Research, Inc. Cost advantages of
hydropower based electricity generation and the substitution of fossil fuel
based power production in an attempt to reduce carbon emission is expected to
drive market demand. According to the estimates of the International Energy
Agency (IEA), the deployment of sustainable hydropower as proposed by this
organization will help avoid approximately one billion tones of annual carbon
dioxide emission by 2050.
Rapid rise in demand for renewable energy especially
in China, India and Brazil and the construction of key hydropower projects
including the installation of 32 turbines and the completion of the third phase
of the Three Gorges Dam in China in 2012, will fuel the future growth of this
market. Supportive regulatory framework for sustainable energy in the U.S. and
European Union is also expected to have a positive impact on market demand.
Implementation of favorable government regulations such as the Hydropower
Regulatory Efficiency Act and Small Conduit Hydropower Development and Rural
Jobs in the U.S. and growing number of funding programs pertaining to the
renewable energy sector in developed countries such as Italy and Canada are
some of the factors which are expected to present future growth
opportunities.
