Major Force in the Retail Electricity Market 2025: Electric Vehicle Driving Forces Behind The Retail Electricity Market Growth

How Will the Retail Electricity Market Grow, and What Is the Projected Market Size?
In recent years, the market size of retail electricity has seen significant expansion. From $53.2 billion in 2024, it is projected to increase to $61.57 billion in 2025, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.7%. Factors contributing to this growth during the historical period include the deregulation of electricity markets, improvements in energy technology, increasing energy demands, government grants and incentives, variable fossil fuel prices, and environmental regulations and standards.

It is projected that the retail electricity market will experience a significant rise in the coming years, growing to a whopping $109.45 billion by 2029, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.5%. A variety of factors are contributing to this expected growth during the forecast period, including the increasing use of renewable energy, the rise of decentralization and distributed generation, expansion of electric vehicles (EVs), advancements in smart grid technology, and solutions for energy storage. Noted trends for the forecast period are smart metering and monitoring, time-of-use (TOU) pricing, products promoting energy efficiency, flexible billing and payment schemes, solutions for charging electric vehicles (EVs), and energy storage systems.

What Are the Key Drivers Behind the Growth of the Retail Electricity Market?
The retail electricity market is anticipated to gain momentum from the surging demand for electric vehicles (EVs). These vehicles are powered by one or multiple electric motors which use energy from rechargeable batteries. Factors like heightened environmental consciousness, government policies encouraging cleaner mobility options, and EV technology advancements resulting in extended ranges and quicker charging times are contributing to this surge. Retail electricity is crucial in fulfilling EV charging requirements, either from residential charging points or public charging stations, thereby facilitating the shift towards environmentally-friendly transportation. For instance, a report by the France-based International Energy Agency in April 2023 revealed that 60% of global electric car sales are attributed to China, which hosts over half of the world's electric vehicles. Interestingly, China has already achieved its 2025 goal for green vehicle sales. Europe, being the second-largest electric car market, witnessed a 15% increase in sales in 2022, with every fifth car sold being electric. In the United States, which is the third largest market, electric car sales saw a steep rise of 55% in 2022, capturing 8% of the market share. In the first quarter of 2023, sales of over 2.3 million electric cars were reported, demonstrating a surge of 25% compared to the previous year during the same period. Sales by the end of 2023 are forecasted to hit 14 million, indicating an annual growth of 35%. A particularly strong surge in purchases is expected during the latter part of the year. Consequently, the booming demand for electric vehicles (EVs) will fuel the progression of the retail electricity market.
