The supportive government policies is notably driving the renewable energy investment market growth, although factors such as competition from fossil fuels may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the renewable energy investment industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Renewable Energy Investment Market Driver
One of the key factors driving growth in the renewable energy investment market is the supportive government policies. Alternative energy sources have become highly critical to reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Governments across the world are supporting the adoption of renewable energies such as wind energy, solar energy and tidal energy by providing incentives, subsidies, and tax benefits to power producers and consumers. Governments across different countries are encouraging the development of renewable energy sources, such as geothermal energy, to bring about a transformation in the power generation sector. For instance, in India, the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) is promoting major initiatives in research and development (R&D) for geothermal technology to harness the low-enthalpy geothermal potential available in the country. Therefore, due to the growing government initiatives and rising investment activities in the development of geothermal resources, the global renewable energy investment market is expected to grow significantly during the forecast period.
Key Renewable Energy Investment Market Trend
The increased spending on utility-scale renewable energy projects is a renewable energy investment market trend that is expected to have a positive impact in the coming years. Renewable energy projects with a capacity of more than 10 MW are classified as utility-scale energy projects, and they benefit from state and local policies and initiatives in most nations across the world. These policies and programs at the state and local levels are aimed at removing any potential impediments by putting in place the appropriate measures. When the cost of renewable energy options is compared with that of traditional electricity generation sources, it makes it difficult for the policyholders, regulatory bodies, and investors to determine the cost-effective and most efficient way of supplying electricity. Therefore, these difficulties have made it necessary for businesses and policyholders to choose an electricity generation source based on inaccurate information. It is also important for market participants to understand the cost parity of renewable energy, which will bring transparency in information. Therefore, this will encourage vendors that offer renewable energy investment services to cater more to utility-scale renewable energy projects, which will lead to market growth during the forecast period.
Key Renewable Energy Investment Market Challenge
The competition from fossil fuels will be a major challenge for the renewable energy investment market during the forecast period. The share of renewable energy in global electricity consumption has increased steadily over the years. However, many countries still prefer using fossil fuels over renewable energy because of the abundant availability of fossil fuels for electricity generation. In addition, the cost of establishing a renewable energy facility to produce power is expensive, and the power output from renewable sources is not as much as that from fossil fuels due to the intermittent nature of renewables. The need to install solar PV panels over a vast area to generate a large volume of electricity is the major reason for the increased investments and costs. Thus, the preference for non-renewable energy sources is still high in many countries worldwide. The decline in the cost of natural gas has driven its use in power generation, which poses a challenge for energy generation using renewable sources. Countries in the Middle East, which have substantial reserves of crude oil and natural gas, have not reduced their production output as they fear losing market share. The use of fossil fuels for power generation is expected to hinder the adoption of renewables, thereby inhibiting the growth of the global renewable energy investment market.

COVID Impact and Recovery Analysis
Several construction activities at greenfield geothermal projects were put on hold, owing to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in the region in early 2020, which resulted in delays in operations at sites. For instance, the Sokoria Geothermal Power Plant (Indonesia) was expected to become operational in February 2020; however, owing to the COVID-19 outbreak, the scheduled date for the commencement of operations was postponed to 2021. Therefore, the pandemic hindered the growth of the regional market during 2020-2021. However, continuous investments in the development of renewable energy projects in the region are expected to propel the growth of the market during the forecast period.

The renewable energy investment market share growth by the asset finance segment will be significant during the forecast period. Market vendors that offer financial services in renewable power projects contribute to the growth of the market. Asset financing, by far the most important component of the continuum, is based on off-balance-sheet capital from large developers like power utility companies, as well as a mix of equity and debt from infrastructure investors and banks. This is essential to avoid the catastrophic effects of climate change and construct a healthier, economical, and more secure future in which everyone has access to clean and affordable energy. Thus, asset finance is required for renewable energy projects to grow during the forecast period.
