Research and Markets: Mozambique Power Report Q1 2012 - Non-OECD Markets To Dominate Supply And Demand Growth

DUBLIN--()--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/519095/mozambique_power_r) has announced the addition of the "Mozambique Power Report Q1 2012" report to their offering.

BMI View: Taking into account the macroeconomic forecasts of our Country Risk service, as well as underlying dynamics specific to the power sector, the author reconfirms that the performances of power markets will see sharp differentiation across regions. While Asia continues to be our global outperformer, continued weakness in the US and eurozone economies further corroborate our view that developed countries are in for sluggish supply and demand growth.

The author also reiterates the view that a number of trends identified over previous months will consolidate in the near- to medium-term:

  • Based on BMI macroeconomic global assumptions, growth potential in the Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) power markets is also likely to be hindered.
  • The extended Africa coverage reinforces the view that the region presents strong potential, given its currently low electrification rate, strong demographic dynamics and positive economic performance.
  • However, we reiterate that not all planned projects should be taken at face value, as funding difficulties and a poor business environment are likely to delay or stall some of them.
  • The author expects nuclear to remain a hot topic, with stark differences in regional position. While new nuclear developments are expected to face significant financial and political obstacles in developed countries, developing countries, both in Asia and in the Middle East, have continued to show strong support for the technology.

Non-OECD Markets To Dominate Supply And Demand Growth

The author reiterates the view that non-OECD countries are expected to dominate the supply and demand trends, overshadowing the developed markets. In particular, sharp increases in electricity generation, consumption and capacity will make the Asia region our global outperformer. While China and India are undoubtedly the biggest markets in the region, we anticipate that power-hungry Cambodia, Vietnam and Indonesia will also make a significant contribution to the regional performance, owing to their elevated average growth rates.
