Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) technologies use mirrors to concentrate the sun's light energy and convert it into heat to create steam to drive a turbine that generates electrical power. The high demand for concentrated solar power technologies is mainly driven by the growing global thrust to increase the share of renewable energy such as solar energy in a sustainable way. The escalating demand for energy in several sectors, and continuous efforts to reduce the dependence on conventional energy sources in many countries, is a key factor boosting the growth of the global Concentrating Solar Power market.
Furthermore, constant developments in solar-to-electric conversion technologies reinforce the popularity of CSP power plants across the world. In addition, the huge funding by governments in developing and developed countries to support the commercial generation of electrical energy using CSP technologies is providing a continued boost to their adoption. Hence, government Support and increasing implementation of heat storage systems are significantly propelling the growth of the global Concentrating Solar Power market.
On the other hand, the high cost of energy generation using concentrated solar power plants in some regions is a key factor that has halted the growth of the market. Besides this, an increasing number of industrial and commercial power plants are leveraging the potential of several CSP systems in developed countries, this key fact creating various profitable ways for market players.
Covid-19 Impact on Concentrating Solar Power Market
As around one-third of the global population is staying indoors owing to nationwide lockdown, stay-at-home orders, and restrictions on movement, the energy demand has sharply dipped. By the end of 2020, approximately, a decline in 5% of the energy demand was been recorded. Also, waning in corresponding gas and oil demands of 4% and 9%, respectively were registered in 2020. Currently, the energy market is at a historic low with surplus supplies. However, the situation is expected to ease up with a lift in lockdown restrictions and end-use industries start operating with great efficiencies.
Concentrating Solar Power Market Segment Overview
According to Product Type, the Solar Tower segment is the major contributor in the Concentrating Solar Power market during the forecast period. The solar tower segment is getting an enhancement owing to the higher temperatures that can allow greater efficiency of the steam cycle and reduce water consumption for cooling the condenser. The higher temperature uses thermal energy storage for achieving schedulable power generation. Therefore, growing adoption of solar power towers due to reduction in cost or allowing greater storage for the same price is anticipated to boost the solar tower segment at the highest pace throughout the forecast period.
