Hydro Turbine Market Analysis
The global hydro turbine market is expected to grow at a CAGR of more than 2.5% over the period of 2020-2025. Factors such as increasing demand for energy on a global scale, a rise in the need for cleaner technologies for power production, and stringent emission policy targets are likely to drive the hydro turbine market. Moreover, hydro power is the world's largest source of renewable electricity generation, accounting for 15.9% of global electricity produced in 2018, and with new hydro power projects sanctioned, the demand for hydro turbines is expected to increase. However, certain drawbacks, such as design challenges of the turbine, ecological concerns related to dams, long gestation periods, and high installation cost of dams are hampering the growth of studied market.
- Reaction turbine segment, by technology, of hydro turbine is expected to be the largest market during the forecast period, owing to increased use of reaction turbine types such as Francis turbine and Kaplan turbines.
- Expansion of energy intensive industries in African countries such as Nigeria, Angola, and Ghana are expected to provide a significant opportunity for hydro turbine market in the near future.
- Asia-Pacific is the largest market and is also expected to be the fastest growing market, owing to the highest annual increase in hydro power capacity in 2018, continuing the growth trajectory.
