Renewable source of energy is gaining a strong foothold in the energy industry. Sources such as solar power, wind power, and water power are commonly used to produce renewable energy. Global warming and air & water pollution are the major issues surrounding the use of fossil fuel in energy generation. With the rise in the average temperature of the earth's climate system and the ever-increasing demand for energy, the renewable source of energy provides the best solution to tackle the side effect of using fossil fuels. The carbon footprint produced by the renewable source of energy is significantly low as compared to other fossil fuels, which reduces the impact of global warming. Furthermore, high demand for energy by developed countries propels them towards the use of renewable sources to cater to their requirement.
The demand for renewable source of energy is fueled by increase in demand for energy coupled with depletion of non-renewable source of energy such as petroleum, coal, and natural gas. Furthermore, the market is driven by increase in awareness about environmental safety and security. However, high cost of investment for the infrastructural setup impedes this market growth. Continuous development of new technologies in renewable source and increased government funding offer new opportunities for market expansion.
