点式吸收器市场规模，份额和趋势分析报告，按应用，区域展望，竞争策略和细分预测，2019 - 2025年

由于未来几年全球可再生能源需求的不断增长，全球点式吸收器市场可能会出现增长。商业规模的可持续能源需求的增加预计将进一步推动全球点式吸收器市场在预测期内的发展。对传统能源生产方法的严格管制预计也会对市场增长产生积极影响。点吸收器是一种波能变换器(WEC)，用于捕获波能并将其转化为电能。点吸收器相对小于波长，可以是浮动结构或底部安装。该产品不受波浪方向影响而持续产生能量，这是其他波浪能产生技术的优势，预计将在可预见的未来推动市场增长。主要市场参与者都在进行研发，开发创新技术。海洋动力技术公司(OPT)开发了一种点吸收式PB150动力浮标。它是一种水面漂浮装置，能够产生150KW的功率。该公司目前正在开发PB500电力塔，该塔的容量为500千瓦，建成后预计将为更大规模的商业和公用事业部门提供便利。 UK government along with the U.S. Department of Energy-funded in various stages of developing PB500 which is expected to bolster the market growth over the next seven years. In Coos Bay, OPT planned a project to install a wave farm using PB500 which is expected to supply 275,000 MW annually. The product is required to be installed at a minimum depth of 40 m which is far enough from the shore owing to environmental impact in sensitive areas. According to researchers, point absorber deployment in sensitive areas near the shore and aquatic life zone has a negative impact on aquatic species. The presence of such devices is expected to alter water movement and turbulence which may result in inhabitant changes. This is expected to hinder the point absorber market over the forecast period. Other factors that are anticipated to hamper the market are high installation cost and large size of equipment. Major end-use industries include commercial, industrial and residential purposes.

由于在发展商业规模能源发电装置农场方面的巨大投资，北美预计将在未来7年成为主要的区域性点式吸收器市场。美国环保署下属的海军能源项目对影响水生生物和水污染的发电设备实施了严格的规定。与海洋热能转换、潮汐发电、海流和海水空调等其他波浪能设备相比，点式吸收器对环境的影响较小，预计在可预见的未来将促进该地区的市场增长。由于可再生能源需求的激增和大面积沿海地区的可用性，亚太地区预计将成为增长最快的区域市场。OPT已经在澳大利亚安装了波能装置农场，预计这将使传统方法产生的温室气体排放减少约50%。预计这将对各区域市场产生积极影响。点式吸收器市场处于初级阶段，参与开发和商业现场安装的主要参与者包括Ocean Power Technologies、AWS Ocean Energy、欧洲能源中心有限公司和Wavestar。
