Outlook on the World's $5.3B Gas Engines Market, 2019-2024 - The Shift Towards Gas-fired Power Plants Presents Lucrative Opportunities

DUBLIN, Dec. 17, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Gas Engines Market by Fuel Type (Natural Gas, Special Gas) Application (Power Generation, Cogeneration, Mechanical Drive) End-User (Utilities, Manufacturing, Oil & Gas) Power Output (0.5-1MW, 1-2MW, 2-5MW, 5-10 MW, 10-20MW), Region - Global Forecast to 2024" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global gas engines market was valued at USD 3.8 billion in 2018 and is projected to reach USD 5.3 billion by 2024, at a CAGR of 5.7% during the forecast period.

The key players in the gas engines market include Caterpillar (US), Wartsila Corporation (Finland), Rolls-Royce Holdings plc (UK), Cummins (US), and Man SE (Germany).

Gas engines are used mainly for power generation applications and CHP applications 

The growth of the gas engines industry can be attributed to the increasing demand for clean & efficient power generation technology and the implementation of stricter emission regulations. Political instability affecting the supply of natural gas acts as a restraint for the gas engines industry along with price disparity across regional markets. Limited natural gas reserves and infrastructural concerns are the main challenges for the gas engines market.

The cogeneration applications segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR from 2017 to 2022

The cogeneration (combined heat and power) generation segment is estimated to be the fastest-growing segment of the gas engines market, by application, from 2019 to 2024. Europe region has witnessed the highest demand for gas engines for cogeneration applications.

In cogeneration, gas engines produce power along with useful heat for space heating and water heating. The cogeneration application majorly includes steel mills, chemical, and food processing plants, paper & pulp mills, and district heating plants. The end-users are mainly focusing on improving the overall efficiency of power plants, which is driving the cogeneration segment market.

Europe: The largest market for gas engines

Europe is currently the largest gas engine market, followed by North America, Asia Pacific, the Middle East & Africa, and South & Central America. The European market is projected to grow at a higher rate due to stringent environmental norms, which led to the use of renewable resources such as biogas, landfill gas, and sewer gas for power generation.

The second key factor that would drive the European market is attractive policy offerings by the European Union for the development of gas-fired power plants, especially special gas power plants. Thus, factors such as the implementation of strict environmental regulations and incentives for gas-fired power plants are expected to drive the European gas engines market.
