Some of the major factors driving the growth of gas market are growing populations, increasing urbanization, rapidly growing automobile sector, increasing need for power generation, and growth in petrochemical industry. For decades, gas has been delivered to businesses and homes throughout the world and it has become the most dependable energy source.

Demand for clean energy has increased multi folds over the years. Governments and environment conscious corporations are driving this sector by increasing solar energy related investments and regulations. Solar energy is a promising and unending answer for our ever increasing energy needs. Solar energy is used to harness the sun's energy and make it useable. As prices of photo voltaic cells used to capture solar energy reduce there are new markets and opportunities for new applications of solar energy products.

Building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) market makes up an important part of current world Photovoltaics market. The global market for BIPV is expected to reach the capacity of 11,392 megawatts by the year 2015 at the compounded annual growth rate of 56%. Among the various segments of this market, BIPV roofing is the largest segments accounting for 3,197 megawatts by year 2015 with the CAGR of 51%.

Different forms of energies are conserved in order to use them at a later stage with the help of devices or some physical media. Major energy storage technologies include lithium ion, flywheel, lead acid, super capacitor, NiCD and NiMH technologies. Among all the geographies Asia is leading followed by North America and Europe. These technologies prevent the collapse of power systems from fluctuations, line changes and fault clearance by acting as a support power system.

Natural gas obtained from coal, gas shale, and gas hydrates are generally referred to as unconventional natural gases. There has been a rapid growth in the exploration and production of unconventional natural gas due to the need for power generation. Technological improvements in the extraction methods like drilling and hydraulic fracturing and benefits of natural gas over other fuels for power generation are some important reasons driving this market.

The technology used for producing/generating electricity by burning coal is known as coal fired power generation. Globally it is one of the oldest and an efficient way for generating electricity. Its value can be understood as its ability of supplying power during both peak-demand and non-peak demand.

Over the last few years, global unified communications solutions market has grown incrementally. Initial high implementation cost remains the major concern but the high return on investment is expected to overcome this concern and driving the growth of UC market.

The global data center infrastructure management (DCIM) market is a combination of IT and facilities management to enable faultless monitoring of all systems across IT and facility infrastructure to improve data center efficiency. Some of the major factors driving DCIM industry are power consumption, virtualization, heat densities, consolidation of data centers, cloud computing, and increasing dependency on IT systems.

The continuous adoption of smart phones and the corresponding rise in application downloads are some of the major factors driving the mobile entertainment market. Mobile gambling and social media are the fastest growing segments of the mobile entertainment industry. The mobile entertainment industry is expected to witness a considerable growth rate of about USD 54 billion over the year 2015 due to an increasing usage of mobile apps and developments in different segments like mobile TV, mobile music, and many more. Services like social media, video, games, and streamed music are gaining popularity in the mobile market with niche players in gambling and adult services increasing in the open mobile internet arena.

Software defined networking (SDN) refers to a network infrastructure where network control plane is decoupled from physical topology. The software defined networking market is growing in demand as it is offering a number of advantages like increased flexibility, improved performance, and simplified operations among others.
