Ocean power is a type of renewable energy, which is derived from all form of resources from sea. Ocean power finds application in water desalination, power generation, heating, water pumping, and other applications. It is one of the largest renewable contributors for power generation applications in coastal communities. Sources of ocean power production includes tidal stream, wave energy, ocean thermal energy conversion, tidal barrages, and others. Ocean power technologies such as wave energy and tidal stream are developing at a significant rate, which further opens up more revenue generation from these technologies.
Rapid growth of the renewable energy industry, owing to rise in investments and awareness toward benefits of renewable energy in developing economies significantly contribute toward growth of the global ocean power market. However, high initial cost associated with installation of tidal power plants is expected to hamper growth of the ocean power market, globally from 2022 to 2031. Conversely, rise in investments toward R&D of ocean power technologies for commercialization at a significant pace is expected to create potential growth opportunities for key players operating in this market in the upcoming years. The global ocean power market is segmented on the basis of type, application, and region. Depending on type, the market is divided into tidal barrages, tidal stream, wave energy, and others. On the basis of application, it is categorized into power generation, water desalination, and water pumping. Region wise, it is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.

Executive Summary
According to this report titled, 'Ocean Power Market,' the ocean power market size was valued at $0.6 billion in 2021, and is estimated to reach $7.8 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 21.4% from 2022 to 2031.Ocean power is the form of renewable energy generated by using sea-based sources such as tidal stream, wave energy, tidal barrages, ocean thermal energy conversion, and salinity gradient energy. Ocean power offers various key benefits such as carbon neutrality, independency on fossil fuels, less cost of power generation, wide availability, and less environmental pollution. Applications of bioenergy include power generation, water pumping, aquaculture, fresh water production, and desalination. Rise in awareness and regulations toward environmental pollution significantly contributes toward growth of the ocean power market.
Significant development of end-use industries such as manufacturing, aquaculture, water desalination, transportation, and power generation fuels growth of the ocean power market during the ocean power market forecast period. In addition, increase in demand for clean power generation in Europe and Asia-Pacific is expected to propel growth of the market during the forecast period. However, some disadvantages of ocean power such as high cost for tidal power plant setup, effect on marine ecosystem, and weak performance in rough weather are key factors expected to hamper the global ocean power market growth.
Depending on type, the wave energy segment held the highest ocean power market share of around 46.8% in 2020, and is expected to maintain its dominance during the forecast period. This is attributed to rise in the wave energy infrastructure led to increase in demand for wave energy producing components. In addition, rapid development in the renewable energy sector and rise in demand for electricity from the marine industry are the key factors that drive the growth of the market during the forecast period.
On the basis of application, the power generation segment holds the largest share, in terms of revenue, and is expected to maintain its dominance during the forecast period. This growth is attributed to increase in investments in the renewable energy sector across the globe. In addition, increase in demand for power from the marine industry drive growth of the ocean power market trends across the globe.
On the basis of region, the market is analyzed across four major regions, namely, North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA. Europe garnered a dominant share in 2020, and is anticipated to maintain this dominance during the forecast period. This is attributed to presence of key players and huge consumer base in the region.
In addition, increase in investments and R&D toward commercialization of ocean power to achieve future renewable energy targets by European Union member states is expected to augment growth of the Europe ocean power market during the forecast period.
