Compressed Natural Gas Market Research, 2030

The global compressed natural gas market size was valued at $9.9 billion in 2020, and is projected to reach $22.3 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 8.2% from 2021 to 2030. Compressed natural gas (CNG) is a mixture of methane and trace quantities of light hydrocarbons, nitrogen, and CO2, which are generated during geological transformation from peat to anthracite coal. It is important for sustainable growth of  industrial sector, owing to depletion in  oil and coal reserves and limitation in emission properties of gas fuel. Specific CNG is designed for customized end use in various applications that require higher performance or stability.

Cost-effective CNG is preferred in many countries, owing to increasing oil prices. In addition, growth in energy requirement by various nations leads to use of CNG, which drives growth of the market during the forecast period. Furthermore, surge in stringent government regulations in pollution control and increase in financial health of many countries across the globe fuels the compressed natural gas market growth during the forecast period. However, initial investment cost, installation costs, and high cost of CNG storage tanks in automobiles with limited number of CNG fueling stations hinder the growth of compressed natural gas market in the future.

Lockdown imposed, owing to outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic resulted in temporary ban on import & export and manufacturing & processing activities across various industries, which decreased the demand for CNG from these consumers. In addition, halt in building & construction of new CNG infrastructures and natural gas fields, owing to unavailability of workers and increase in demand–supply gap hampered the compressed natural gas market growth during the pandemic period. This declined the market growth in the second, third, and fourth quarters of 2020. However, the CNG market recovered by the second quarter of 2021, as COVID-19 vaccination begun in various economies across the globe, which improved the global economy.

Compressed natural gas market is segmented on the basis of source, end user, and region. Depending on source, it is categorized into associated gas, non-associated gas, and unconventional sources. According to end user, it is segregated into light duty vehicles, medium/heavy duty buses, medium/heavy duty trucks, and others. Region wise, it is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.

The key players operating in the global compressed natural gas market are Chevron Corporation, Eni, Royal Dutch Shell Plc., EOG Resources, Inc., Trillium CNG, Occidental Petroleum Corporation, Phillips 66 Company, JW Power Company, Total Energies, and Indraprastha Gas Limited.

The other players operating in the CNG market are Neogas, Inc., Gazprom Neft, BP Plc., GNVERT, ANGI Energy Systems Inc., Exxon Mobil Corporation, Lukoil, Rosneft, National Iranian Gas Company, Mahanagar Gas Limited, and China Natural Gas, Inc.

These players adopt numerous strategies, including partnership, agreement, and collaboration to stay competitive in compressed natural gas market.

For instance, in September 2021, Chevron U.S.A., Inc. signed an agreement to form joint venture with Mercuria Energy Trading (Integrated energy and commodities company). This joint venture aimed at increasing the natural gas value chain of Chevron in opening more than 30 Chevron-branded CNG stations by 2025. This strategy will strengthen the presence of company in the region.

Compressed Natural Gas Market by Source

Depending on source, non associated gas segment dominated the market in 2020, owing to rise in demand for CNG and emergence of non-associated gas reservoir for CNG production across the globe. In addition, rise in exploration and production activities in non-associated gas reservoirs are anticipated to fuel the growth of the global compressed natural gas market in the future.

Compressed Natural Gas Market by End User

By end user, the light duty vehicles segment dominated the global market in 2020, in terms of share, owing to rise in demand for light duty vehicles with increase in consumer expenditure across the developing regions, including Asia-Pacific and LAMEA. In addition, rise in awareness toward air pollution and reduction in price of CNG compared to other fossil fuels fuel the global compressed natural gas market growth in future.

Compressed Natural Gas Market by Region

Asia-Pacific garnered the highest compressed natural gas market share in the year 2020, in terms of revenue, and is anticipated to maintain its dominance throughout the compressed natural gas market forecast period. This is attributed to presence of huge consumer base, rapid development of transportation sector, and existence of key players in the region. Moreover, presence of countries, including China, Japan, India, South Korea, and Australia contribute toward the growth of the compressed natural gas market in Asia-Pacific.

Analyst Review

Urbanization and growth of transportation sector are the key factors attributed to the leading position of Asia-Pacific in compressed natural gas market. Huge potential in Asia-Pacific to set up transportation infrastructure and compressed natural gas (CNG)  are expected to provide lucrative growth opportunities to leading synchronous condenser manufacturers.

Recovering oil prices during last year and warning by the International Energy Agency (IEA) that there might be a relative shortage of liquid fuels by 2020 prompts governments and transport industries to opt for alternative fuels/technologies. This reduced the dependence of  transport sector on liquid fossil fuels, decreasing the economic risks associated with the price volatility of conventional oil-derived fuels and thereby, driving the growth of the CNG market. Low price and high efficiency of CNG drive the growth of the market. In addition, rise in awareness and increase in stringent government regulations toward carbon emissions fuel the growth of the market during the forecast period.

Among the analyzed regions, Asia-Pacific is likely to account for the highest revenue in the market throughout the forecast period, followed by Europe, LAMEA and North America.
