The generative ai in energy market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The energy market size for generative AI has seen tremendous growth in the past few years. It is projected to escalate from $0.95 billion in 2024 to $1.21 billion in 2025, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 26.7%.
Factors contributing to the growth during the historical period include the emergence of renewable energy sources, advancement in demand forecasting, the surge in energy storage systems, optimization of demand response, and enhanced risk management and resilience.
The generative ai in energy market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The energy market for generative AI is forecasted to undergo a significant surge in the coming years. The projection is that it will expand to $3.07 billion by 2029, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 26.3%.
The predicted growth within this period is due to factors such as improved accuracy, increased interest in better electricity distribution, heightened commitment to customer engagement, soaring adaptability of wind and solar energy, and boosting asset management. Real-time forecasting, responsive adaptation and optimization, enhanced predictive analytics, the incorporation of cutting-edge data sources, predictive upkeep and asset management, and intelligent grid administration are the major anticipated trends for this period.
The anticipated escalation in solar electricity production is predicted to fuel the growth of generative AI in the energy sector. The augmentation of solar electricity comes from converting sunlight into power through photovoltaic (PV) panels or concentrated solar power (CSP) systems. The wider acceptance of solar electric use stems from decreasing costs of solar tech along with a heightened awareness surrounding its environmental advantages, such as lowered carbon emissions when contrasted with fossil fuels. Combining solar electricity production with generative AI tech presents considerable prospects to improve the efficiency, dependability, and sustainability of energy systems, promoting a shift towards a greener and resilient energy future. As an example, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), U.S. Federal Statistical System, projected in March 2023, that solar energy will comprise more than half of the new power capacity additions for that year in the U.S. Worldwide, renewable energy is predicted to elevate its quota in the power generation blend from 29% in 2022 to 35% by 2025. Even though global power sector's CO2 emissions peaked around 13.2 gigatons (Gt) in 2022, they are expected to stabilize by 2025. As for the U.S., utility-scale solar power accounted for 73.5 gigawatts (GW), constituting around 6% of total power capacity, as of January 2023, whereas wind power was recorded at 141.3 GW, making up approximately 12% of the total. Furthermore, U.S. developers have plans to increase wind capacity by 7.1 GW and add 8.6 GW of battery storage within this year, effectively doubling the country’s battery storage capacity. As a result, generative AI in the energy market is fueled by the growth in solar electricity production.
