Plastics, the Game-Changer for New Energy Transformation
New energy refers to renewable energy sources other than fossil fuels, such as solar, wind, hydrogen, water, etc. They are not only abundant and inexhaustible, but also produces less carbon emissions and provides enormous benefits for our environment. The wider application of the clean energy sources has been made possible by energy storage.
The global renewable energy market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 8.91% between 2022 and 2027, according to Technavio, of which 73% will be contributed by the significantly growing Asia-Pacific market. Remarkably, continuous innovation in plastics empowers the burgeoning development of the new energy industry with new lightweight, high-performance, low-cost and low-carbon materials. By leveraging the unique properties of plastics, more sophisticated designs, optimized components and efficient processing technologies are emerging.
