Report Scope:

This report examines nanotechnology in energy industry applications. Definitive and detailed estimates and forecasts of the global market are provided, followed by a detailed analysis of the nanomaterials, energy application and regions. Ongoing market trends, growth drivers and challenges impeding the market are discussed. The report will analyze global nanotechnology in energy markets by material, applications and geography. It will also focus on the regulations and government-supported programs impacting this market. Regionally, the focus of study will be the markets of North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Rest of the World (RoW).

The report focuses on the global market for nanoscale materials (e.g., nanopowders, nanocomposites, nanoscale thin films, and others) and devices (e.g., nanosensors) used in renewable and nonrenewable energy production (e.g., petroleum refining, solar energy) and energy storage (e.g., batteries and fuel cells). In the other types of applications (e.g., energy transmission, energy conversion, energy end uses), nanotechnology consumption is almost negligible.

The report concentrates on nanotechnology applications that are currently in commercial use or are likely to be commercialized by 2028. Other applications that, while promising, are not likely to make it out of the laboratory by 2028, are not covered in depth. It is worth noting that, unlike the previous versions of this report, these figures do not include consumption of industrial enzymes, as enzymes are not included in most assessments of the overall nanomaterials market.

The report does not cover nanoscale materials and devices used to monitor and/or control the environmental impacts of energy production or uses such as nanomaterials in automotive catalytic converters. These technologies are outside the scope of this study and are covered in detail in several other reports such as report NAN039C, Nanotechnology in Environmental Applications.

Using 2022 as the base year, the report provides estimated market data for the forecast period from 2023 to 2028. The market size for different regions (regions by application) will also be covered. The impact of COVID-19 was also considered when deriving market estimations. Sales value estimates are based on prices in the supply chain. Market-driving forces and industry structure are examined. International aspects are analyzed for all global regions.

In 2020, the growth rate of global manufacturing industries was severely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic halted progress in every regional economy. Governments took measures to contain the economic slowdown.
