The global cogeneration equipment market size was valued at $21.2 bn in 2020, and is projected to reach $51.9 bn by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 9.4% from 2020 to 2030. Cogeneration, also known as combined heat and power (CHP), is the utilization of energy in two different forms simultaneously, typically mechanical energy and thermal energy by utilizing fuel energy at optimum efficiency in a cost-effective and environmentally responsible way. The equipment used in the cogeneration system such as motor, pump, compressor, steam turbines, air compressor, combustion chamber, gas turbine and many others, are known as cogeneration equipment. Cogeneration production of energy and usable heat is done in the same plant with the help of steam turbine and gas turbine. In addition, with the use of cogeneration system the efficiency is around 90% since, 40% of energy can be converted into electrical energy, 50% of energy can be converted into heat and only 10% of loss is done with this system. The main equipment used in the cogeneration are steam turbine & engines, gas turbine & engines, blades, air compressor, combustion chamber, rotor, stationary nozzle, rotating and rigged pallets, boiler, generator, condenser, pump and many other.

Impact Of Covid-19 On The Cogeneration Equipment Market

• As a result of the global economic slowdown, the production of major industries such as pulp & paper mills, cement, and many others was stopped for a shorter period. The strict regulations of government led to decrease in the sector due to which there is a sluggish decline in the growth of the global cogeneration equipment market.
• The power generation industry accounts for a major share in terms of consumption of cogeneration equipment globally. After the major lockdown across the globe, there is a significant growth in the electric usage, which led to increase the demand of cogeneration equipment across the globe. However, there is a sluggish effect on the cogeneration equipment due to Covid-19.
• The production of fuel was not stopped due to lockdown which led to increase the supply of fuel which in turns directly increase the co-generation and do not affect the market.  
• Automobile plants, construction, agrochemicals and many other industries have been affected badly amid the lockdown imposed due to the COVID-19 outbreak and recorded decline in the industry in 2020. This decline in such industries led to decrease in the demand for cogeneration equipment and shows the sluggish decline in the market. 
• The construction industry accounts for significant share in terms of use of cogeneration globally. Attributed to the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic, the construction of various big projects has been halted amid the lockdown. As a result, the demand for cogeneration equipment has declined, which led to the downfall of the global market.

Analyst Review

According to the CXOs, the cogeneration equipment market has registered a dynamic growth over the past few years, owing to drastic growth in cogeneration system power plants in developing countries such as India, China, Japan, and others. In addition, cogeneration system is an environment-friendly power generation process since, in cogeneration, renewable energy is extensively used such as biomass and natural gas, which is expected to drive the growth of the cogeneration equipment market. Moreover, stringent environmental regulations might enhance the demand of cogeneration system which led to boost the cogeneration equipment market.

The lower carbon emission regulation such as P2 law (by U.S. EPA), Air act 1981 and Environment Act 1986 (by Indian government) is anticipated to reduce the pollution, which led to increase in demand for cogeneration system and could create the wide opportunities for the cogeneration equipment market. According to some CXOs, with increase in gas production activities, the gas-based cogeneration system is expected to witness growth in emerging economies, which in turn boost the demand for cogeneration equipment market. Moreover, factors contributing toward cogeneration equipment market are increasing regulation of electric generation and low energy costs, which represent a small percentage of industrial costs, advances in technology such as packaged boilers, availability of liquid or gaseous fuels at low prices, and tightening environmental restrictions.

 Furthermore, cogeneration systems are efficient and can utilize alternative fuels and become more important in the face of price rises and uncertainty of fuel supplies. In addition to decreased fuel consumption, cogeneration results in decrease of pollutant emissions. For these reasons, governments in Europe, the U.S., Southeast Asia and Japan are taking an active role in the increased use of cogeneration. In India, the policy changes resulting from modernized electricity regulatory rules have induced 710 MW of new local power generation projects in the sugar Industry. Other core sector industries are also already moving toward complete self-generation of heat and electricity.
