North America Concentrated Solar Power Market Analysis
North America concentrated solar power (CSP) market is expected to grow at a CAGR of more than 2.5% in the forecast period of 2022-2027. North America is the leading region in the implementation of renewable energy technology. This can be ascribed to the ease of availability of sustainable technologies and infrastructure in the region. During the Covid-19 pandemic, due to lockdown and cross-border restrictions, there were limitations on the movement of manpower and supply of goods & raw materials in North America. Furthermore, the lockdown resulted in lower demand for electricity from commercial and industrial facilities, as these facilities were completely shut down during the pandemic. However, due to the rise in the investment in renewable energy solutions in all major countries in North America, the market is expected to grow in a couple of years. Moreover, the government's supportive policies and reduction in solar energy technology costs are expected to drive the market during the forecast period. However, higher initial investment and operational costs, compared to solar PV technology, are anticipated to hinder the market's growth during the forecast period.
- The Power tower project is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period. This technology accounts for 60% of the projects. The system provides higher efficiency as the concentration of light is onto a one single receiver which yields higher temperature.
- According to the International Renewable Energy Agency, Mexico is expected to provide opportunities for CSP market in the near future. The country has potential to generate 60 GW of wind and solar energy by 2030. Futhermore, the country is also aiming to utilize 21% of its the renewable enegry by 2030. To achieve this Mexico need annual addition of 1.7 GW of wind energy, 1.5 GW of solar photovoltaic PV and 100 MW concentrated solar power.
- The United States has dominated the concentrated solar power market. The government's supportive policies for the research and development of concentrated solar power plants are expected to drive the market in the country.
