Coal Bed Methane (CBM) Market By Application (Power Generation, Industrial, Residential,) 2014 to 2020

Online, March 28, 2014 (Newswire.com) - Global CBM (Coal Bed Methane) market is expected to reach USD 17.31 billion by 2020, growing at a CAGR of 5.9% from 2014 to 2020. Unconventional CBM reserves, especially in coal-rich regions are increasingly gaining the spotlight as the industry strives for energy independence. Exploration and commercialization of unconventional hydrocarbon energy sources is seen as a critical step by energy agencies, to stabilize the energy supply-demand gap in the coming years. With CBM being a pure natural gas form, producers and consumers also have the opportunity to obtain much needed carbon credits and tax incentives.

The strict framework designed for extraction by various environmental agencies coupled with the highly capital intensive process is expected to be a key challenge for industry participants over the next six years.

Solar Tracker Industry Trends And Market Segment Forecasts To 2018 ( grandviewresearch.com/industry-analysis/solar-tracker-industry ) Solar trackers could be single axis or dual axis based on the number of axis of rotation. A single axis tracker has a single axis of rotation which could be vertical, horizontal or polar aligned which moves from east to west during the course of the day. A dual axis tracker can perform any two of the above mentioned movement simultaneous thus resulting in increased level of efficiency in terms of solar energy generation. However, in spite of the advantage provided by dual axis trackers, single axis trackers are still used in plenty due to the cost advantage they provide. The high DNI (direct normal irradiance) in Europe makes trackers a preferred technology used for non renewable power generation. Single axis trackers are the most popular form of trackers in the utility power generation systems owing to their low cost and high efficiency.

Hydropower Market Analysis And Segment Forecasts To 2020 ( grandviewresearch.com/industry-analysis/hydropower-industry ) The global installed capacity for hydropower is expected to reach 1,524 GW by 2020, according to a new study by Grand View Research, Inc. Cost advantages of hydropower based electricity generation and the substitution of fossil fuel based power production in an attempt to reduce carbon emission is expected to drive market demand. According to the estimates of the International Energy Agency (IEA), the deployment of sustainable hydropower as proposed by this organization will help avoid approximately one billion tones of annual carbon dioxide emission by 2050.
