Gas Generator Market Trends




  • Growing concern over the degradation of the environment is driving market growth




The amendment in several energy policies to support the clean energy movement to reduce carbon emissions might boost the growth of the market CAGR. A report published by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in 2022 estimates that warming is likely to reach 1.5°C between 2030 to 2052. Human activities and industries caused a severe threat to the quality of the environment, which resulted in frequent natural calamities. The government and private entities joined hands to mitigate the impacts of warming by introducing advanced and clean energy technologies. This will undoubtedly propel the growth of the natural gas generator industry.


Moreover, Energy is the backbone of the economic development of the world. However, the exponential use of fossil fuels has raised severe environmental threats, such as deforestation, rising sea levels, warming, etc. The international regulatory and government organization took the initiative to lower the severity of pollution by introducing sustainable energy development programs.


Additionally, the multifold growth in varied industrial sectors, coupled with the population explosion, is set to increase the demand for reliable and continuous power supply. Information and communication technology is crucial in shaping the industry size, as every single data center requires a generator to avoid power outages. Also, in many commercial & industrial, and industrial applications, gas-fired generators are widely used to meet the increased demand for electricity. Subsequently, the natural gas generator industry is expected to see robust Gas Generator market revenue in the forecasted period.


Gas Generator Market Segment Insights:


Gas Generator Power Capacity Insights


Based on power capacity, the Gas Generator market segmentation includes > 300 KW, 301 KW-1 MW, and < 1 MW. The < 1 MW segment dominated the market; the small-scale industries use the generator with < 1 MW capacity because of the short time in operation and less load. Hence, these categories' demands are propelling due to the emerging industries of the countries like India and China. These regions are growing power outage rates and growing gas generator demand. Also, this Region is considered the center of small cost-driven businesses, driving the growth of the Gas Generator Market.

Gas Generator End-User Insights


Based on end-user, the Gas generator market segmentation includes residential, commercial & industrial and utilities. The commercial & industrial segment was estimated as the largest natural gas generator market globally. The commercial & industrial segment is projected to expand at the highest CAGR of 12.0% during the forecast period, owing to the growing demand for cleaner and greener fuel-fired gensets for commercial & industrial applications. Developing economies in the Asia Pacific have witnessed strong growth in their commercial & industrial sectors. IT, telecom, and retail are major sectors that are growing rapidly in developing countries in the Asia Pacific, resulting in high demand for natural gas gensets as they are crucial for backup power in these facilities. Hospitals and medical institutes are the main contributors to the commercial & industrial segment of the natural gas generator market. Medical facilities and the communities they support depend heavily on emergency generator sets for critical power. The growing demand for gensets from healthcare facilities is expected to drive the demand for natural gas gensets for commercial & industrial applications during the forecast period.
