The global natural gas generator market revenue was around US$ 5.7 billion in 2021 and is estimated to reach US$ 10.6 billion by 2031, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.6% during the forecast period from 2022 to 2031.
A natural gas generator is a particular kind of generator that uses natural gas as its fuel rather than the more common options of petrol or diesel. They are widely utilized in nursing homes, hospitals, and other big facilities where a reliable power supply is essential. It is frequently utilized in place of gasoline-powered ones.
Factors Influencing Market Growth
Natural gas is one of the cleanest-burning fossil fuels, which emits fewer pollutants into the atmosphere than other fuels. However, the growing concern over pollution around the world drives market growth.
Expansion of gas-based power production, the pipeline of gas infrastructure expansion, and cost-effective and high-efficiency of generators. Such factors propel the market growth.
Global urbanization and infrastructure expansion increased the demand for natural gas generators, which may drive the market.
Study of the COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic had a negative impact on the market. Lockdown enacted by the government, restricted people's movement, products, and electricity around the globe, especially in the majority of the areas where natural gas generators are produced on a significant scale. Several local, state, and federal governments have imposed various restrictions on how business is conducted and how people can travel, such as stay-at-home orders and quarantines, which have resulted in a sizable number of business slowdowns and closures.
Therefore, the crisis impacted nearly all sectors since it interfered with various industrial supply chains and power ratings. Due to fewer employees, the majority of enterprises stopped monitoring their Power rating. However, it slowed down the market.
Regional Insights
Asia-Pacific dominated the market and it is anticipated that this region would continue to develop at the highest rate over the forecast period. This can be attributable to some things, including this region's largest population and enterprises. Furthermore, the rapid growth of the industrial sectors in India, Japan, and South Korea increases the demand in this region.
Additionally, government initiatives in India are promoting the development of industrial facilities, which is predicted to increase demand for gas generator sets for industrial applications throughout the projection period. India's generator set sector has a preference for using diesel as a raw source. However, demand for natural gas gen-sets would increase due to government requirements to reduce carbon emissions brought on by the burning of diesel combined with the government's shifting focus towards the use of cleaner sources for power generation.
