The geothermal electricity market covered in this report is segmented by type into back pressure, binary, double flash, dry steam, single flash, and triple flash. It is also segmented by end-user into dry steam power stations, flash steam power stations, and binary cycle power stations. The geothermal electricity market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides geothermal electricity market statistics, including geothermal electricity industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a geothermal electricity market share, detailed geothermal electricity market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the geothermal electricity industry. This geothermal electricity market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry. The global geothermal electricity market size will grow from $6.57 billion in 2022 to $7.24 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.1%. 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, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The global geothermal electricity market size is expected to grow to $10.64 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 10.1%. The growing demand for electricity is expected to drive the geothermal electricity market in the forecast period. The growing economy, rapidly rising populations and increasing demand for transportation, especially in developing countries such as China, India, Brazil and some African countries generates high demand for electricity. The global electricity demand is projected to grow to 38,700 Terawatt-hour (TWH) by 2050, and electric vehicles are expected to account for 9% of the global demand. According to Canada’s Upstream Oil & Natural Gas Industry, with the global population expected to increase by about two billion over the next two decades, it is estimated that by 2040 electricity generation is expected to increase by 49%. Hence, the increasing demand for electricity is expected to drive the geothermal electricity market in the forecast period. The geothermal electricity market is being financially supported by governments globally. The government provides grants and other support to stimulate sustainable forms of energy. For instance, in 2022, The Geothermal Energy from Oil and Gas Demonstrated Engineering Funding Opportunity (FOA) was announced by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), which will award up to $165 million to expand U.S. geothermal energy deployment by utilizing technologies and labor from the oil and gas industry. This initial FOA is anticipated to offer $10 million to establish a consortium that will provide a roadmap for overcoming geothermal energy's technological and knowledge gaps. Using that roadmap, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) will then provide up to an extra $155 million for research to fill up those gaps. The environmental consequences caused by drilling the earth’s surface for geothermal electricity restrict the growth of the geothermal electricity market. The geothermal system involves forcing the pathways for the earth's trapped heat to reach the surface to generate power and create fractures on the earth’s surface. The construction of a geothermal electric power plant makes the surface uneven and more vulnerable to earthquakes. Other concerns regarding geothermal electricity include the potential for surface instability and sudden sulfur dioxide and silica emissions. For instance, in 2021, according to France's National Seismic Monitoring Network (Renass), a canceled geothermal project caused a 3.9 magnitude earthquake in the eastern city of Strasbourg, France. The increased risk of earthquakes and other environmental-related concerns hampers the growth of the geothermal electricity market. The companies in the geothermal electricity market are investing in new technologies to make geothermal energy easily accessible to generate electricity and for other heating purposes. Large amounts of geothermal energy are extracted only from places where it is easy to access very hot water. However, in countries like the UK and France, the availability of such hot water or hot water steam is very low as compared to places with volcanoes, such as Iceland and Indonesia. Following that, companies are investing in new approaches to make geothermal energy easily extractable and available. For instance, Climeon, a Sweden-based company, invented a technology that operates in temperatures between 70 °C and 120 °C and uses the temperature differences between hot and cold water to produce electricity. The method, unlike solar and wind power, is continuously available and is not affected by the weather. In 2021, Net Trading Group, a UK-based industrial group, acquired Rock Energy GroupNet Trading Group hopes to expand its presence and build a group with its investments targeted at building a new Nordic industrial group.

For instance, to attain net-zero carbon emissions, the Office of Rail and Road (ORR) estimates that 13,000 track kilometers – or about 450km per year – of the track will need to be electrified by 2050 in the UK, and 179 km kilometers were electrified between 2020 and 2021. According to the Edison Electric Institute (EEI), annual electric vehicle sales in the USA are expected to surpass 1.2 million by 2025. Electric vehicles are expected to account for 9% of the global electricity demand by 2050. The outbreak of COVID-19 disease (COVID-19) has acted as a significant restraint on the power generation 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 viruses 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 breathing. The virus was first identified in 2019 in Wuhan, Hubei province of the People’s Republic of China, and has 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 lock down. The outbreak has had a negative impact on businesses throughout 2020 and into 2021. However, it is expected that the power generation 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. Electric power generation companies are using batteries to store solar energy during daylight hours. The energy storage sites consist of large lithium-ion batteries.

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. This biomass electricity market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry. The global biomass electricity market size will grow from $41.44 billion in 2022 to $45.17 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.0%. 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, 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. In 2021, ReGenerate Energy Holdings, LLC., a US-based company focusing on environmental sustainability in renewable energy, acquired Albany Green Energy. Through the acquisition, ReGenerate Energy Holdings, LLC would continue building and expanding a bioenergy business. Albany Green Energy is a US-based biomass heat-and-power facility that uses woody biomass from mill residue, forestry waste, recycling, and agricultural waste sources to provide 50 megawatts of electricity to Georgia Power.
