Biomass electricity refers to the electricity generated by a process that involves the burning of biomass for the generation of product gas or syngas for the production of electricity. Producer gas is a combustible gas mixture of carbon monoxide, hydrogen, carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrogen. The gasification process uses heat, pressure, and partial combustion, which takes place when the air supply (O2) is inadequate for the combustion of biomass. The main types of feedstock in biomass electricity are solid biomass, biogas, municipal solid waste, and liquid biomass. Solid biomass, also known as feedstock, consists of solid or compacted organic materials in the form of pellets that discharge stored energy through combustion and burning. The different technologies include anaerobic digestion, combustion, co-firing, gasification, landfill gas, and others. They are used by various sectors such as households, industrial sectors, government sectors, and others. The biomass electricity market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides biomass electricity market statistics, including biomass electricity industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a biomass electricity market share, detailed biomass electricity market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the biomass electricity industry.

The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The global biomass electricity market size is expected to grow to $61.32 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 7.9%. The increasing government support through various government subsidies and policies is driving the growth of the biomass electricity market. Due to the growing concerns about climate change and the rising levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere resulting from the burning of fossil fuels such as coal and oil, new government policies are being framed to encourage sustainable power generation. For instance, in India, the Ministry of new and renewable energy under its National Biogas and Manure Management Programme (NBMMP) provides subsidies for setting up family-type biogas plants mainly for rural and semi-urban households. The program is implemented by the State Nodal Departments/State Nodal Agencies and Khadi and Village Industries Commission (KVIC), Biogas Development and Training Centers (BDTCs) and involves subsidies of up to Rs. 17,000 ($230) for setting up biogas plants. The growing competition from alternative energy sources such as solar, wind, and geothermal is expected to limit the biomass electricity market. Unlike wind power plants, biogas plants are affected by cold climates. The digesters in a biogas plant require heat energy to maintain a constant biogas supply. The optimal temperature for bacteria to digest the waste product is around 37°C. At temperatures below 37°C, the digesters require additional heat energy to maintain a constant biogas supply. Solar and wind energy plants use raw resources which are available in abundance, whereas biogas production is only possible in rural areas where raw materials such as agricultural waste, manure, green waste, or food waste are in constant supply. Thus, the popularity and ease of maintaining alternative energy sources such as solar, wind, and geothermal restraints the growth of the biomass electricity market. Companies in the biomass electricity market are developing new methods to produce electric power through new hybrid biogas plants by combining biogas with other forms of renewable energy sources such as solar energy. The combination of solar energy with biogas reduces the operating cost and effort required to deal with the waste products from the farms. Following suit, in 2020, Green Genius, a renewable energy company, launched a new biogas power plant in Belarus. In addition to producing green electricity, new biogas power plants will also eliminate the smell from pig farms and transform organic waste into liquid odorless fertilizer. Lithuania, Poland, Ukraine, Belarus, Spain, and Italy are the six European markets where Green Genius is creating sustainable energy (solar and biogas) projects.

Utilities are essential services that are utilized for homes, apartments, businesses, and others to make them comfortable and function properly such as electricity, water, natural gas, and others. The main types of utilities are water and sewage, natural gas distribution, electric power generation, transmission, and distribution. Sewage water is the waste of a community’s residents. Wastewater is the water that is expelled from homes after being used for various reasons such as dishwashing, laundry, and toilet flushing. The different operator types include public operator; private operator and are offered on fixed rates and variable rates. The global utilities market grew from $6,000.19 billion in 2022 to $6,416.54 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.9%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, and affecting many markets across the globe. The utilities market is expected to grow to $8,314.78 billion in 2027 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.8%. The rapid growth in investments in renewable power generation capacities is expected to drive the utilities market during the forecast period. A large number of power generation companies are investing in renewable energy sources, especially in the USA and European countries. For instance, EDF Energy announced an investment of more than €25 billion in solar power and green electricity tariffs. Governments globally are also promoting renewable energy sources by offering incentives and subsidies to solar power generation companies. For instance, according to the Clean Energy Australia 2022 Report, 9 GW of new large renewable energy capacity was introduced to the network in 2021, representing 68 large-scale projects under construction worth $18 billion in investment and about 35,000 new jobs. This is expected to boost electric power generation and subsequently drive the utilities market during the forecast period. The outbreak of COVID-19 disease (COVID-19) has acted as a significant restraint on the utilities market in 2020 as demand for utility services from industrial and commercial establishments decreased due to trade restrictions and lockdowns imposed by governments globally. Many manufacturing facilities globally halted operations to contain the spread of the virus among their workforce, thereby limiting the need for utility services such as electricity and wastewater treatment. COVID-19 is an infectious disease with flu-like symptoms including fever, cough, and difficulty in breathing. The virus was first identified in 2019 in Wuhan, Hubei province of the People’s Republic of China, and spread globally including Western Europe, North America, and Asia. Steps by national governments to contain the transmission have resulted in a decline in economic activity with countries entering a state of 'lockdown' and the outbreak had a negative impact on businesses throughout 2020 and into 2021. However, it is expected that the utilities market will recover from the shock across the forecast period as it is a 'black swan event and not related to ongoing or fundamental weaknesses in the market or the global economy. Digital technologies are increasingly making their way into the power generation, transmission, and distribution industry to enhance productivity, efficiency, and safety associated with power plants. Digital technologies such as smart grids, sensors, and smart meters provide the company and the customer, with more accurate and real-time accounts of power usage. These technologies help to improve productivity, efficiency, safety, compliance, and reliability in power generation and distribution. This results in better asset management, planning, and execution, and a faster level of service with higher customer satisfaction. For instance, in Ireland, Whitegate Power Station has installed 140 sensors throughout the plant to digitize vibrations, temperature, and other data to monitor and optimize operations in real-time and minimize downtime.

The building inspection services market consists of the sales of building inspection services by entities (organizations, sole traders and partnerships) that evaluate all aspects of the building structure and component systems and prepare a report on the physical condition of the property, generally for buyers or others involved in real estate transactions. The main types of services in building inspection services are home inspection services, specific element inspection services, commercial building inspection services and others. Home inspection is enlisting the help of specialised firms or licenced personnel to conduct a complete examination of the property in order to identify any structural or mechanical problems. The different source types include in-house services, outsourced services and is used in various applications such as residential, commercial, others. The global building inspection services market is expected to grow from $11.35 billion in 2021 to $12.82 billion in 2022 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.0%. The growth in the building inspection services market is mainly due to the companies rearranging their operations and recovering from the COVID-19 impact, which had earlier led to restrictive containment measures involving social distancing, remote working, and the closure of commercial activities that resulted in operational challenges. The market is expected to reach $19.75 billion in 2026 at a CAGR of 11.4%. Rising urbanization around the world is expected to drive the building inspection services market. Increase in number of individuals moving to urban areas for employment, better lifestyles, and opportunities led to an expansion in urban areas. According to the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, about 4.4 billion people live in urban areas in 2020 and is projected to rise to 6.7 billion by 2050. Urbanization has increased the availability of affordable housing, infrastructure, and essential services. As infrastructure grows, it requires laws and legislation to determine the safety of buildings to prevent hazards and to provide the public with safe buildings that building inspection services can help with. Thus, increasing urbanization is a major factor that contributes to the growth of the demand for building inspection services market. Labor shortage is expected to hinder the building inspection services market. Finding labor for conducting building inspections is difficult particularly with specific skills. For instance, the San Jose’s fire department, in September 2020, reported there is a shortage of staff for conducting fire audits for new buildings. In 2019, the Philadelphia Department of Licenses and Inspections called for 800 more inspectors for building inspections. This staff crunch directly affects the reputation as they fail to cater to timely service and the revenue of the company as they are unable to take up more numerous inspections and thereby hinder the building inspection services market. Companies and governments are developing and employing drones for building inspections. Drones, also known as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or unmanned aircraft systems (UASs) are a flying robot that can be controlled remotely or independently operated through software-controlled flight plans in its embedded systems, working in conjunction with onboard sensors and GPS systems. Drones enable building inspections safer, faster as well as more cost-effective. In October 2020, Singapore analytics and acoustic technologies company H3 Zoom. AI started using drones for building inspection and facility management after realizing that the city's highly urban environment delayed digital technology disruption. Moreover, in September 2020, New York City Council has passed a bill to explore the use of drones for building facade inspections. In December 2020, Applus+, a Sapin based company that provides testing and inspection services acquired SAFCO Group for an undisclosed amount.
