Market Dynamics- Restraints
- Lack of data, standards, and common practices within and across companies is expected to restrain growth of the global sustainability & energy management software market during the forecast period
There is a lack of reliable data, standards, and common practices within and across companies, which results in missed opportunities. Only major enterprises are practicing green initiatives such as lighting replacements, enhanced procurement strategies, and taking advantage of tax benefits for renewable energy generation. However, SMEs from emerging economies are yet to implement green initiatives, which in turn, is expected to restrain growth of the global sustainability & energy management software market during the forecast period.
- Non-compliance to government regulations is expected to hamper the global sustainability & energy management software market growth over the forecast period
Stringent government measures regarding environment protection often impose market access restrictions on for enterprises, which in turn affect competitiveness. The effect of such measures is comparatively more pronounced in emerging economies mainly due to lack of infrastructure and monitoring facilities, limited technology choices, inadequate access to environment-friendly raw materials, lack of reliable data, and large number of small-scale exporters. For instance, in developed economies such as the U.S., Canada, and countries in Europe, SMEs in the leather sector have vanished due to strict environmental legislation. However, in emerging economies, majority of the tanning industry comprises SMEs processing raw to semi-finished leather.
Market Opportunities
