Global Gas Genset Market to Grow at a CAGR of 9.53% during 2016-22; Caterpillar and

Cummins Leads the Market – 6Wresearch

Global Gas Genset market is experiencing a steady growth owing to electricity demand supply

gap, need to generate power from cleaner source of energy, infrastructure development and fast

growth in industrialization and commercialization sector. The instability in the present power

infrastructure throughout the world, including advanced economies such as U.S. and Europe

along with developing economies such as China and India are fostering the growth for global gas

genset market.

According to 6Wresearch, Global gas genset market is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 9.53%

during 2016-22. The increasing demand for power in developing regions such as Middle East &

Africa, Asia-Pacific and Eastern Europe are spurring high demand for gas gensets. Inadequate

grid infrastructure, rising industrialization and commercialization along with increasing electricity

demand supply gap are the few of the market drivers for gas genset market.

According to “Avishrant Mani, Senior Research Analyst, Research and Consulting,

6Wresearch,” Low prices of natural gas in comparison to crude oil would encourage end users

to opt for natural gas gensets over diesel or gasoline gensets.

“Moreover, surge in natural gas production owing to discovery of new gas fields and boom in

shale gas due to technological development in hydraulic fracking and horizontal drilling has

resulted into reduced natural gas prices,” Avishrant further added.

According to “Ravi Bhandari, Research Associate, Research and Consulting,

6Wresearch,” gas gensets contributes fractionally in the global genset market, where diesel

gensets have dominated the market revenue due to effective supply chain for diesel, low fuel cost,

ease of storage and ease of installation.

However, with the expansion of gas pipeline infrastructure and introduction of stringent

environmental norms to restrict the emissions of greenhouse gases and Particulate Matter (PM),

the demand for gas gensets is anticipated to surge in the years to come, Ravi further added.

The major companies in global gas genset market include- Caterpillar, Cummins, GE, Dresser-

Rand, Generac, Himoinsa, Wartsila, MTU and others.
