Global Wave Energy Market Overview
Introduction:
Wave energy converters captured energy contained in ocean waves and utilized it to generate electricity. There are three main types; oscillating water columns that use trapped air pockets in a water column to drive a turbine; oscillating body converters that are floating or submerged devices using the wave motion (forwards/ backwards, up/down, side to side) to generate electricity; and overtopping converters that use reservoirs to create a head and subsequently drive turbines. Further, each category can be subdivided according to the technologies used to convert wave energy into pneumatic/mechanical energy (rotation/ translation), their power systems (air turbines, hydraulic turbines, hydraulic engines), their structures (fixed, floating, submerged), and their positioning within the ocean (shoreline, near shore, off shore). The global wave energy market accounted for US$ 44.2 billion in 2020 and is estimated to be US$ 252.42 billion by 2030 and is anticipated to register a CAGR of 19.3%.
Global Wave Energy Market Dynamics
Companies involved in generating clean energy drives market
The substantial interest in harvesting wave energy stems for the requirement of leveraging the limitless potential of ocean in meeting the growing demand for sustainable energy. The massive demand for next-generation technologies for harnessing renewable sources of energy at scale is a prominent factor driving the global market growth. Technological advances in wave energy converter have enabled market players to better understand the potential of wave energy sources. Noticeable investment being made by private players and governments in finding alternative sources of clean energy is leading a significant momentum for the rapid expansion of market. Increasing number of companies are working and collaborating in concert to lower the high initial cost of investment by pointing at bringing down tariff rates. Furthermore, market players are boarding on strategies to establish commercial deployment of projects for increasing wave energies. The trend is projected to gather steam in the coming years and will help in boosting the wave energy market growth.
Lack of Grid Parity
Increasing efforts to develop more tidal stream power plants in developing and developed economies is also catalyzing the target market growth. However, there are several factors that affect the growth of the wave energy market. Wave power plants and tidal stream have still not been able to obtain grid parity. This is necessary for the wider commercialization of wave energies and is also essential to sustain a sizeable return on investment. Globally, companies pursue long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs). The shift to private equity and debt financing models by companies will also create new, exciting avenues in the market.
