Gas Engine Market Size, Share, Growth Report 2032

Gas Engine Market Overview

The global Gas Engine market accounted for USD 3.5 Billion in 2020 and is expected to reach USD 5.6 Billion by 2028, growing at a CAGR of 6.2% from 2021 to 2028.   

A global gas engine market is a reciprocating combustion engine that runs on natural gas, shale gas, biogas, and sewage gas, among others. These engines generally achieve an efficiency of 90% owing to their high electrical and thermal efficiency, low cost, and high reliability. These gas engines are widely used in power generation, cogeneration, mechanical drive, and tri-generation applications.  

Key players are focusing on the advancement of products and integrating the equipment with new features. The manufacturers are emphasizing mergers & acquisitions to strengthen their position in the market. For instance, In October 2019, Caterpillar, a leading manufacturer of construction and mining equipment, diesel, and natural gas engines, launched the first natural gas-powered generator set—Cat G3516C. The generator is optimized to run on Lean Coal Mine Methane (LCMM) for local mining applications. The generator has benefits to local customers to enhance product support and optimize cost efficiencies.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis:

COVID-19 has impacted businesses across the globe. The imposed lockdown and spread of the contagious virus have slowed down the operations in various industries including chemical, metallurgy, Power Generation, Mechanical, and many more. Measures such as restriction and lockdown across the globe have been explicit and unprecedented. It has further disrupted supply chains, delayed projects on power generation, and created labor shortages.

The power and energy industry across the globe is delayed due to the ongoing project due to the slowdown of manufacturing. These factors are likely to hamper the growth of the market in 2020.

Growth Factors

Escalating demand for clean and reliable power supply is predicted to impel the growth prospects of the gas engine market over the coming years. Apart from this, the growing need for reducing air pollution and greenhouse effects occurring as a result of fuel emissions in both developed and emerging economies is projected to fuel the expansion of the gas engine market in the years ahead. In addition, the rapid evolution of gas-based power generation is anticipated to succor the demand for gas engines in the power & utility sector.
