The global combined heat power market was valued at $24.6 billion in 2021, and is projected to reach $48.4 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 7.2% from 2022 to 2031. The main factors driving the growth of the combined heat and power market are increasing government laws to support the use of CHP technology to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and expand knowledge about the advantages of energy efficient technology.
In addition, the economic and environmental benefits of the systems, as well as the reusability of the biproducts, are expected to increase demand for CHP systems, leading to the expansion of the installation market for these systems. The government regulations and large financial incentives for CHP systems are anticipated to boost demand for CHP installation. The growing popularity of natural gas as a cost-effective and environmentally friendly alternative to oil & coal are projected to contribute to combined heat power market growth.
One of the limitations to the development of the combined heat power market is lack of awareness about the site permissions necessary to install these systems. Installation of these systems is only appropriate for establishments that require both power and hot water, which acts as a barrier to market growth. Furthermore, the initial expenses of installing these combined heat and power systems are rather substantial, making them prohibitively expensive for small-scale enterprises.
The surge in usage of natural gas for power production and the increase in need for energy efficiency in industry are the primary drivers of the global combined heat power market. In addition, increased problems about greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions have led to the promotion of CHP by various governments, which has further boosted the growth of this industry. The growing innovative technologies and the expansion of distributed power generation are expected to boost the market. For instance, in February 2018, according to an update from the UK Government’s Department of Business, Energy, & Industrial Strategy, using cogeneration systems can minimize carbon emission by up to 30% compared to other conventional technologies.
The key players profiled in this report include MAN Diesel & Turbo SE, Caterpillar Inc., Mitsubishi heavy Industries ltd., General Electric, Cummins, Bosch Thermotechnology Ltd., ABB Limited, ENER-G Rudox, and Veolia.
The combined heat power market is segmented on the basis of fuel type, capacity, technology, application, and region. By fuel type, the market is divided into natural gas, coal, biomass, and others. By capacity, the market is classified into up to 10 MW, 10-150 MW, 151-300 MW, and above 300 MW. By technology, the market is categorized into combined cycle, steam turbine, gas turbine, reciprocating engine, and others. By application, the market is fragmented into commercial, residential, industrial, and utility. By region, the market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
[APPLICATIONGRAPH]
By application, the industrial cycle segment dominated the global combined heat power market share in 2021. The increase in use of combined heat and power systems in many sectors such as the petrochemical and pharmaceutical industries are anticipated to boost the market growth. In addition, encouragement of directives to increase combined heat and power installation across solar power units and growth of the residential and commercial sector supported by industrialization benefit the industrial segment. Owing to the rise in need for power, combined heat and power units are primarily used in industries.
[FUELTYPEGRAPH]
By fuel type, the natural gas segment dominated the market in 2021. Natural gas fueled combined heat and power systems dominated the entire market for the installation of Combined Heat and Power (CHP) systems. Owing to its low price and wide availability, natural gas is a useful fuel for combined heat and power systems. In addition, natural gas is recognized as a clean energy source that helps to lower carbon emissions. Owing to their high value and low cost, combined heat and power is expected to see an increase in demand as coal usage increases. Owing to its costly handling and emission of hazardous gases into the atmosphere, its use is limited. These are anticipated to be the major factors affecting the combined heat power market size during the forecast period.
[CAPACITYGRAPH]
By capacity, the up to 10 MW segment dominated the global combined heat power market share in 2021. The residential combined heat and power systems typically range in size from 1.5kW to 0.5MW and operate on natural gas. Compared to other conventional systems, up to 10 MW aids in lowering energy expenses. In addition, the government's micro-CHP initiative for fuel cells powers up to 10 MW. Fuel cells produce electricity without burning fuel, in contrast to reciprocating engines and gas turbines. For instance, cogeneration solutions in this power range are commonly provided by AB Holding, 2G Energy, FuelCell Energy, and Capstone.
[TECHNOLOGYGRAPH]
By technology, the combined cycle segment dominated the global combined heat power market share in 2021. These systems are typically used in industries with high energy demands, such as chemicals, refining, cement, pulp, paper, sugar, and medicines. When compared to other technologies, non-fuel operation, cheap installation & maintenance costs, low pollution, start-up time, fuel availability, heat output, and energy efficiency are all significant advantages.
[REGIONGRAPH]
By region, Asia-Pacific is anticipated to be the fastest-growing segment during the forecast period. The fast industrialization and urbanization, as well as rising market demand for clean fuel energy, which boost market growth in the region, have resulted in the development of new combined heat and power in emerging economies. For instance, Bert Energy GmbH revealed its Bert Mobil Gas demo plan, which commissioned at Sri City, Andhra Pradesh, India. In addition, natural gas supply & price outlook, improved energy efficiency, and environmental restrictions for industrial boilers & power plants are anticipated to encourage the installation of cogeneration systems throughout the region.
COVID-19 negatively impacted various industries such as energy and power that led to a drastic decline in energy and power industry sales. As combined heat and power is widely used in power and energy manufacturing, there was significant reduction in the combined heat and power demand globally.
China is the leading producer and exporter of raw materials such as feedstock required for combined heat and power production. However, China being the epicenter of the coronavirus pandemic, its export was affected, leading to a decline in combined heat and power energy.
Economic slowdown affected the setup of new combined heat and power projects across the world as majority of government fundings were diverted toward healthcare sector owing to rapid spread of the COVID-19 virus, impacting the market to a great extent.
