Hydropower Generation Market is projected to reach USD 342.48 Billion by 2030 : Cognitive Market Research
What is Hydropower Generation?
- Hydropower, or hydroelectric power, is a sustainable type of energy that creates power utilizing a dam or diversion structure. It changes the natural flow of a river or water of other bodies in electricity. It uses turbines and generators and converts kinetic energy into electricity. This converted electricity is then sent through the electrical grid to power homes, companies, and industries.
Summary:
- The Hydropower Generation Market will grow from USD 228.30 Billion in 2022 to USD 342.48 Billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 5.2% during the forecast period of 2023-2030.

Market Dynamics:
• The rising need for electricity drives the Hydropower Generation Market growth
Electricity is used for lighting, heating, cooling, and refrigeration, as well as to power appliances, computers, electronics, industrial, and public transit systems. Electricity is used in the industrial sector to power industrial motors and machinery, lighting, computers, and office equipment, as well as equipment for facility heating, cooling, and ventilation. As a result, the demand for electricity has skyrocketed. In 2021, global electricity consumption has raised approximately 25,300 terawatt-hours. Electricity usage tripled between 1980 and 2021, while the world population expanded by nearly 75%. This rising need for electricity boosts the demand for hydropower generation.
• Challenges for the Hydropower Generation Market
High costs associated with hydropower generation plants may stymie the industry's growth. Large-scale hydropower project total installation costs generally vary from roughly USD 1000/kW to more than USD 3500/kW. However, this price can vary according to the conditions. Installing hydropower capacity at an existing dam might cost around USD 500/kW. Whereas, projects in remote locations with insufficient local infrastructure and positioned far from existing transmission networks, might cost approximately USD 3500/kW. As a result, the high costs connected with hydropower-generation plants might stifle industry expansion.
• Rising investment in hydropower plants will boost the market growth
Hydropower currently accounts for 60% of renewable energy. Aside from that, hydropower is vital to the commitment to achieve net-zero air emissions by 2050. As a result, several countries throughout the world are investing in hydropower projects. For instance, during the previous two decades, installed worldwide hydropower capacity has increased by more than 75%, from 680 GW in 2000 to almost 1,200 GW in 2021. This increasing investment will propel the growth of the market during the forecast period.
