Virtual Power Plant Deployment To Soar in Europe & North America

With the launch of several renewable energy generation projects, the demand for well-developed power evacuation infrastructure is surging, which is, in turn, pushing up the requirement for virtual power plants (VPP). Moreover, the increasing concerns being raised over the soaring pollution levels and greenhouse gas emissions and rapid depletion of fossil fuels are fueling the adoption of renewable energy sources for power generation, which is further boosting the demand for VPP. As per various reports, the share of renewable sources in power production across the world will rise from 7% in 2015 to 20% by the end of 2035.

Furthermore, India is aiming to produce 150 GW of renewable energy by the end of 2022. This would subsequently fuel the requirement for VPP, as they are needed for integrating the newly developed renewable power projects with the existing centralized power distribution infrastructure. Moreover, renewable energy projects propel the requirement for a centralized infrastructure in order to facilitate continuous electricity flow. Apart from the aforementioned factors, the lack of proper power infrastructure in emerging economies, such as Nigeria, Indonesia, and India, is also propelling the expansion of the global virtual power plant market.

According to the estimates of the market research company, P&S Intelligence, the value of the market will surge from $1,975.1 million in 2017 to $5,510.2 million by 2023, while the market will register a CAGR of 18.6% from 2018 to 2023. Demand response, mixed asset, and supply side are the most commonly used technologies in virtual power plants. Out of these, the requirement for the demand response technology was the highest in the years gone by. This was because of the higher operational performance and lower development cost of the VPP powered by this technology. 

Geographically, the demand for VPP will shoot up in Europe and North America in the forthcoming years. This is ascribed to the launch of renewable power projects and the soaring requirement for electric vehicle charging infrastructure and reliable power supply from various distributed energy resources in the region. Latin America (LATAM), Middle East and Africa (MEA), and Asia-Pacific (APAC) are also expected to generate huge requirement for VPP in the coming years, owing to the surging use of smart energy management solutions and launch of renewable power projects in the region. 

Hence, it can be safely said that the demand for VPP will rise tremendously in the coming years, primarily because of the growing adoption of renewable energy sources for power production and launch of several renewable power projects all over the world.

How is the Spunbond Nonwoven Fabric Changing the Landscape of Multiple Industries?

Image
Commonly known as spun laid, spunbond nonwoven fabric is produced by the continuous process of fibres spun and can be directed with air streams or can be dispersed directly to a web-like deflector. Spunbond is free of lubricants and it is a non-toxic material. As the spunbond nonwoven fabric is very durable in nature and has beneficial traits, such as high strength and resistance to bacteria, it is being increasingly used in the textile industry.  Additionally, with the soaring sales of diapers, feminine hygiene pants, and toddler training pants, owing to the surging per capita income and growing public awareness about personal hygiene, the demand for spunbond nonwovens is increasing sharply. Moreover, the mushrooming requirement for adult incontinence products, on account of the ballooning population of geriatric people, especially in Germany, Japan, and Italy, is also driving the demand for these fabrics across the globe. According to the United Nations Department of Economic and So

How Will Rapid Urbanization Propel Lead–Acid Battery Sale?

Image
The global automobile production surged from 52,146,292 units between January 2020 and September 2020 to 57,262,777 units between January 2021 and September 2021, as per the OICA. Furthermore, the IEA estimates that global PHEV car and BEV car stock will grow from 3,346,713 units in 2020 to 16,335,941 units by 2025 and 6,850,327 units in 2020 to 29,626,576 units by 2025, respectively. The increasing adoption of EVs and the burgeoning vehicle demand will, therefore, encourage the use of lead–acid batteries in the upcoming years. Additionally, the accelerating urbanization rate and the ongoing industrial revolution will propel the lead–acid battery market growth in the foreseeable future. The rapid urbanization and industrialization creates will create a huge requirement for power, owing to which households and manufacturing units deploy such energy storage devices in abundance. According to the World Urbanization Prospects: 2018 Revision by the Population Division of the UN, the global
