By 2027, the Global Natural Gas-Fired Electricity Generation Market is expected to reach US $55.26 Bn., thanks to growth in the Technology, and End-Use segment. The report analyzes market dynamics by region and end-user industries.

Global Natural Gas-Fired Electricity Generation Market Overview:

The global natural gas-fired electricity generation market size was valued at US $41.13 Bn. in 2019, and it is expected to reach US $55.26 Bn. by 2027 with a CAGR of 4.31% during the forecast period. Natural gas is a naturally occurring hydrocarbon gas mixture primarily composed of methane with different proportions of other higher alkanes, as well as a minor quantity of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, hydrogen sulphide, or helium. Across the globe, it is a key source of electricity generation through the implementation of gas turbines, steam turbines, and co-generation. It is one of the ideal fuels for power generation since it is both clean and efficient; it emits 30% less CO2 (Carbon dioxide) than burning petroleum and 45 % less CO2 kWh (per kilowatt-hour) than burning coal. However, natural gas generates more energy than its alternatives like oil and coal.

Global Natural Gas-Fired Electricity Generation Market Dynamics:

Availability of abundant natural gas & supporting government policies As environmental concerns about the high carbon emissions from coal-fired electricity generation plants have grown natural gas-fired power stations have become a cleaner option for baseload electricity generation. Some of the world's major countries in the Asia Pacific, Europe, and North America expect to be able to replace coal with natural gas as the primary source of electricity generation. Natural gas production in the United States has increased as technology for extracting natural gas from shale gas reserves has enhanced. For example, the natural gas production in the country reached 9.8 billion cubic feet per day in 2019, up 10% from 2018. The country's market for natural gas-fired electricity generation has been driven by the availability of natural gas. In 2019, natural gas is been USA's primary electricity generation fuel, contributing to approximately 38% of the total electricity generation. Also, the government of various nations across the globe has taken the relevant regulatory and policy initiatives like EPI (Energy Policy of India), EPE (Energy Plan for Europe) to encourage the use of natural gas as an electricity generation source in the country. The reduced natural gas costs as a result of cost-effective production from some unconventional gas resources in significant quantities are expected to drive market growth throughout the forecast period. The physical nature of natural gas is a challenge Natural gas is difficult to transport because of its physical properties, making it more expensive than oil and coal. Internationally, pipelines were used for the gas flows, but LNG (Liquified Natural Gas) has gained favor. LNG requires upfront capital investment in liquefaction, ships, and regasification facilities. As a result, LNG is less expensive than pipelines over vast distances. Many LNG facilities have been built in the past as alternatives to natural gas pipelines. Also, the presence of coal-based economies, particularly in the Asia Pacific, and inappropriate gas infrastructure in some countries. Thus, the mentioned factors are expected to challenge the market growth over the forecast period.

Global Natural Gas-Fired Electricity Generation Market Segment Analysis:

Based on Technology, the global natural gas-fired electricity generation market is segmented into two types as follows, Open Cycle, and Combined Cycle. In 2019, the Combined Cycle segment was dominant and held 78.2% of the overall market share. Natural gas-fired combined cycle power generation is now the cleanest possible source of power from hydrocarbon fuels, and this technology is becoming more actively used as natural gas becomes more affordable. This technology has gained popularity as a result of its capacity to improve a plant's overall efficiency. In addition, compared to open cycle technology, combined cycle technology uses less fuel to produce the same amount of electricity. Air is extracted from the environment, compressed in a compressor, and then fed into a combustion chamber in open cycle technology. In addition, fuel is added and burnt at constant pressure and air temperature. Global Natural Gas-Fired Electricity Generation MarketBased on End-Use, the global natural gas-fired electricity generation market is segmented into two types as follows, Industrial, and Power & Utility. In 2019, the Power & Utility segment was dominant and held 85.8% of the overall market share in terms of revenue because of the need for large-scale power stations to meet the rising baseload power demand. Also, the increased demand for electricity from the residential, commercial, industrial sectors, as well as the decommissioning of outdated coal-fired power plants, is expected to drive the development of natural gas-fired electricity generation plants. These factors are also expected to contribute to the power and utility segment's growth over the forecast period.

Global Natural Gas-Fired Electricity Generation Market Regional Insights:

In 2019, Asia Pacific was the dominant region and held the highest share 35% of the global natural gas-fired electricity generation market in terms of revenue. China and Japan are expected to make a significant contribution to the region's industrial sector growth in the future years. Furthermore, governments in such nations are always working to reduce carbon emissions, encouraging the electricity generation sector to use natural gas rather than coal as a fuel. In 2019, North America also held a considerable share of xx% in terms of revenue. A surge in shale gas extraction across the region has driven the electricity generation industry to shift its interest toward natural gas. Also, the presence of rules and regulations targeted at lowering carbon emissions and converting to natural gas as a power generating source over coal is expected to drive natural gas-fired power plants in the region. During the forecast period, these elements are expected to drive growth in North America. Thanks to a series of projects in the pipeline in countries such as Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and the United Arab Emirates, the Middle East, and Africa are expected to grow significantly throughout the forecast period. Furthermore, the majority of the countries in the region are attempting to improve access to energy in their own countries. During the forecast period, these variables are expected to contribute to the region's growth.
