The Distributed Energy Outlook provides analysis and forecasts of the global decentralised power generation market in 2016. The distributed energy coverage includes wind, distributed solar, combined heat and power (CHP), and generator sets. The total installed capacity for distributed generation (DG) is forecast to reach 495 GW in 2016 led by inves...

This outlook deliverable highlights the key trends in the energy storage industry for the year 2016. It covers alternative energy storage technologies such as thermal energy storage (TES), flywheel energy storage (FES), compressed air energy storage (CAES), and supercapacitors and batteries that are used for renewable energy storage, as well as in ...

The decline in the oil price has had a massive impact on the sector and the wider economy. Upstream capital expenditures (capex) have been significantly cut, with many exploration and production projects being put on hold. However, for the midstream and downstream, investment is continuing, as participants invest for the longer term. The decline in...

Data centres will drive growth for critical power supplies in 2016, especially modular data centres which are witnessing remarkable growth. This, in turn, is driving demand for modular power supply solutions. Additionally, demand for photovoltaic (PV) inverters is rising steadily due to strong growth in solar PV. 2016 will be a defining year for sm...

Frost & Sullivans Annual Global Power Generation Forecasts provide a detailed assessment of the future development of the power generation fuel mix. These reflect Frost & Sullivans current thinking on the expected development of electricity generation and capacity additions during the 20102030 period. A global overview looking at key global develo...

Renewable energy has made strong advances in the power generation fuel mix in many developed and developing nations in the past decade. Energy-hungry nations are increasingly turning to renewables in order to meet their rapidly increasing demand. While some better established sources of renewable power, such as small hydro, biomass, wind, and incre...

Following the Kyoto Protocol, countries in the Asia-Pacific region are motivated to adopt ‘green’ measures and reduce CO2 emission from automobiles and industries. One of the key focuses is to have 20.0 percent of total vehicles on road to be electrical vehicles by 2020. EVs are ’zero’ emission vehicles. Hence, the EV charging infrastructur...

Meeting energy needs while achieving security of supply and minimising carbon emissions are key challenges facing most countries. Although nuclear is gaining support in Europe, its significance varies among European countries. While some states are not willing to take risks and are opposed to nuclear (such as Germany, Italy, Switzerland and Belgium...
