Commenting on the report, an analyst from Technavios team said: High penetration rate for automotive applications will be a key trend for market growth. The automotive industry is a major end-user of advanced composites. The demand for fuel-efficient vehicles is driven by volatile fuel prices. Automobile manufacturers are progressively discovering solutions that can help in reducing the curb weight of automobiles to enhance fuel efficiency. The use of advanced composites in automobiles is expected to reduce curb weight by 40%-50% and increase fuel efficiency by 30%-35%.

According to the report, increase in demand for carbon fiber-reinforced composites will be a key driver for market growth. Growing preference for carbon fibers has also been observed among manufacturers of wind turbines because of properties such as enhanced stiffness and light weight. The demand for larger turbines with enhanced electricity capture capacity has led to an increase in the production of longer turbine blades. The demand for carbon fibers for such applications will be strong.

Further, the report states that recycling technologies such as mechanical, thermal, and chemical recycling have also been developed. However, the high cost of such recycling processes and the low quality of recyclates have remained a challenge for market growth. Environmental legislations like EPA encourage energy and resource savings in developed regions and also necessitate the...
