The global small hydropower market is projected to reach USD 3.0 billion by 2024 from an estimated market size of USD 2.6 billion in 2019, at a CAGR of 2.4% during the forecast period. The global market is set to witness significant growth owing to the application of small hydropower projects for rural electrification, financial incentives and policy initiatives, and investments in hydropower projects in response to climate change.
Asia Pacific is currently the largest small hydropower market, followed by Europe and North America. The Asia Pacific is estimated to be the largest market from the global small hydropower market from 2019 to 2024. China, Vietnam, and India are the world’s fastest-growing economies, contributing mainly to the Asia Pacific market. The Asia Pacific market is expected to grow during the forecast period owing to the investments in rural electrification and off-grid energy generation.
Mini hydropower is expected to lead the small hydropower market. Mini hydropower installations are driven mainly by rural electrification.
The global small hydropower market is projected to reach USD 3.0 billion by 2024 from an estimated market size of USD 2.6 billion in 2019, at a CAGR of 2.4% during the forecast period. The factors driving the market include the application of small hydropower projects for rural electrification, financial incentives, and policy initiatives, and investments in hydropower projects in response to climate change.
The small hydropower, by type, is segmented into Mini Hydropower, and Micro Hydropower segments. The Mini hydropower segment is expected to lead the small hydropower market during the forecast period. Installations in the mini-hydropower segment are largely driven rural electrification. China led the way in installing small hydropower plants for rural electrification. In developed countries such as the US and Norway, the installations are to increase the renewable energy share in the nation’s energy mix.
