Global Wave Energy Market is valued approximately at USD 37 million in 2019 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 19.3% over the forecast period 2020-2026. Wave energy is the power utilized from sea or ocean waves. It is also known as sea wave energy or ocean energy which is used for electricity generation, water desalination, pumping of water, and numerous additional tasks. Foremost trend being observed in the global wave energy market is the increased funding in the development of power projects linked with wave energy. Due to the inadequate availability of traditional fuels such as gas, oil, and coal in conjunction with correlated pollution issued by the utilization of these fuel sources and escalating investing in cleaner energy sources are key driving forces of the market growth. These wave energy resources are plentiful in nature and are ecologically friendly. Due to benefits of wave energy source, there has been a soaring trend of investment in wave energy projects. For instance, The Energy Department of United states in 2019, granted $25 Million for Next-Generation Marine Energy Research Projects including wave energy. Similarly, in 2019, European Regional Development Fund announced investment of about $5.5 million to speed up the development of a floating offshore wave and wind technology for power generation in deep water locations. Furthermore, robust government policy framework and incentive schemes is expected to create significant growth opportunity in the market over the forecast period. However, intermittent nature of certain wave impedes the growth of the market over the forecast period of 2020-2026.

The regional analysis of global Wave Energy market is considered for the key regions such as Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America and Rest of the World.
