Renewable Energy
Industry Overview
Renewable energy in the US will experience “substantial” growth through 2040 as a percentage of total electricity generation, many predict it could move to 27% of electricity generated by 2040 if we see high oil prices.
Of the renewable energy segments, wind and solar are projected to show the greatest growth accounting for most of the overall gain, followed by geothermal and biomass. As the price for solar continues to fall many project that solar could grow at the 59% rate it experienced during the last 5 years, generating exponential growth potential.
A total of 97% of wind capacity is in the utility sector. Wind capacity should grow significantly through 2022, but after the tax credits expire, the growth should slow. Because the most favorable wind resources are located in a few regions in the country, increased adoption of wind technology in these regions may be limited by the ability of regional grids to handle high levels of intermittent generation.
Geothermal is projected to increase at a faster rate than wind (5.5% verses 2.4%), but the overall size will still remain sm
The exact growth rate of the renewable energy market is difficult to predict as some of the growth will be based on the length and extent of the government subsidies, as well as the future price of oil and natural gas. However, regardless of the impact of the subsidies and future oil and natural gas pricing, the renewable’s energy market is projected to have significant growth through 2040.
