Captive Power Generation Market, By Equipment Type

The gas engine segment dominates the global captive power generation market. A gas engine is an internal combustion engine that operates on gas fuels such as coal gas, producer gas, biogas, landfill gas, and natural gas. Gas engines have a wide range of applications such as power generation, cogeneration, and mechanical propulsion. The main function of a gas engine used in a gas power plant is to supply power to help the generator generate electricity. Environmental regulations such as the Kyoto Protocol and the Paris Agreement support the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions. Extensive applications in combined heat and power plants, automotive, marine, and manufacturing pave the way for future gas engine growth. According to the IEA, electricity demand in 2018 increased by 4%, almost twice as fast as total energy demand. This increase in electricity demand stimulates the demand for gas engine-powered generators.

Captive Power Generation Market, By Fuel Type

The coal segment dominates the global captive power generation market. Coal generates about a third of the world’s electricity. A coal-fired power station is a type of fossil fuel power station. Coal is pulverized and then burned in a pulverized coal-fired boiler. In 2020 the total number of plants started falling as they are being retired in Europe and America, although still being built in Asia, almost all in China. The UN Secretary General has said that OECD countries should stop generating electricity from coal by 2030, and the rest of the world by 2040. With an increasing demand for electricity, the coal industry is expected to generate electricity. Abundant availability and low cost compared to other power technologies are expected to drive market growth. Asia-Pacific is a potential region that contributed to global coal production in 2020. The presence of countries like India and China has created the demand for coal as these countries are still investing in the development of coal-fired power plants.
