Wave and Tidal Energy Report
Clixoo, May 2011, Pages: 205
The Tidal and Wave Energy Report provides precise and practical answers to the critical questions asked by entrepreneurs and investors.
The report has been prepared after intensive research by a team of industry, scientific and market research experts. During the preparation, a large number of diverse data sources related to tidal and wave - both primary and secondary - were used. These included interviews with tidal and wave experts and consultants, data from high-end consultants, inputs from a number of seminars and conferences on tidal and wave, white papers, industry and research journals were used.
The Wave and Tidal Energy Market Potential and Business Opportunities provides strategic advice and numerous case studies on the prominent and emerging tidal and wave industry, and will be immensely useful for entrepreneurs, businesses and individuals who are keen on understanding the business case in the tidal and wave industry and devising an effective strategy for this exciting business segment.
The report provides precise insights and precise inputs for the following question: - What are the current and future trends in tidal and wave energy sources worldwide? - What are the segments in tidal and wave energy industries that have the most attractive business potential? - What are the trends and new developments in tidal and wave energy technologies? - What are the investment trends and opportunities in tidal and wave energy and sustainability industries? - What segments of the tidal and wave energy industry are attractive for small scale investments? - What are the most significant problems or bottlenecks in tidal and wave energy business? - What steps should an entrepreneur take should she/he be interested in exploring further? - Does the tidal and wave energy industry have attractive small business opportunities?
Until recently, little serious exploration had been undertaken into exploiting ocean-based energy sources – especially tidal and wave energy sources. Since 2002, there has been a welcome change in this direction. A number of pioneering entrepreneurs and companies have set out to prove that tidal and wave energy sources could be as attractive as sources such as solar and wind. The marine energy sector has already seen a number of technologies progressed to the point of commercial installation. The rapid emergence of new machines, continuous development of more established ones, and the wealth of on-going R&D leaves no real consensus over which designs will ultimately emerge to produce electricity from the ocean most efficiently and cheaply.
Starting with its insignificant contribution currently, estimates project that by 2015, there is a possibility of having over 10-20 GW of ocean-based power generation capacity. These could result in investments of over $15 billion. By 2025, forecasts suggest ocean based renewable could contribute over 100 GW of installed capacity, under favourable conditions and mandates.
This report was written with the objective of providing entrepreneurial people worldwide information and insights on how they can benefit from the growth of opportunities in tidal and wave energy.
