天然ガス自動車の世界市場規模は、2028年までに143億米ドルに達し、予測期間中にCAGR5.9%の市場成長率で上昇すると予測されています。
NGVには、専用車、デュアルフューエル車、バイフューエル車の3種類が存在します。専用車とは、天然ガスを燃料とする車両です。バイフューエル車は、2種類の燃料供給システムを搭載し、ガソリンまたは天然ガスのどちらか一方で走行することができます。デュアルフューエルシステム車は、天然ガスで走行し、ディーゼル燃料は点火を補助するために使用されます。従来、この設計は大型トラック専用でした。CNG車は、天然ガスを容器に入れて加圧し、気体の状態で保持します。LNGは液体であるため、エネルギー密度がCNGよりも大きく、より多くの燃料を搭載することができます。そのため、LNGは航続距離の長いクラス7やクラス8のトラックに向いています。燃料の選択は、車両の用途要件(例:エネルギー要件)と希望走行距離によって決まることが多いです。
COVID-19影響分析
COVID-19の大流行により世界経済は大きく後退し、自動車生産に悪影響を及ぼしました。パンデミックは重要な産業に政治的、社会的、経済的混乱を引き起こし、成長をある程度阻害しました。サプライチェーンへの影響により、いくつかの生産拠点が操業を停止しました。また、商用車や乗用車の販売に深刻な影響を及ぼし、自動車産業におけるNGVの需要に打撃を与えました。しかし、パンデミック後、多くの企業が天然ガス自動車の販売増加を報告しており、予測期間中、天然ガス自動車市場の拡大を促進すると予想されます。
市場成長要因
汚染物質排出量の少ない自動車へのニーズが高まっています。
排出ガス規制の強化に伴い、CNGやLNGなどの低公害車の普及が加速する可能性があります。多くの国が今後数年間で汚染物質を削減する目標を表明しており、これらの自動車に対する規制を今後数年間でより厳しくすることを制定しています。すでに多くの国が、ガソリンの輸入に関わる排出ガスやコストを削減するために、CNGやLNGといった代替燃料車の開発を支援しています。現在の自動車は、LNGやCNGの燃料システムに簡単かつ安価に変更することが可能です。
CNGを搭載した自動車への投資の増加
ガソリン車やディーゼル車に代わる安価な自動車として、CNG車やLNG車の販売は、全国の多くの自動車カテゴリーで飛躍的に拡大しています。近年、CNG車の登録台数は数倍になっています。また、ガソリン車・CNG車の登録台数も増加しています。また、ガソリン車・ハイブリッド車についても、拡大する需要に対応するため、かなりの台数が生産されています。
市場抑制要因
電気自動車需要の増加
地球上のいたるところで気候の変動が起こっています。世界各国は、二酸化炭素を含む温室効果ガスの排出を制限するための措置を講じています。世界のいくつかの国では、ネットゼロエミッションの目標を達成するために電気自動車を導入しており、これが電気自動車の世界の需要を高めています。電気自動車は、従来のガソリン車とは異なり、再生可能エネルギーで走行し、排出ガスを一切出しません。電気自動車は、エンジンが不要で、バッテリーから供給される電力でモーターを駆動させ、走行します。
自動車タイプの展望
天然ガス自動車市場は、車種別に乗用車、小型・大型バス、トラック、三輪車に分類されます。2021年の天然ガス自動車市場では、ライトデューティーとヘビーデューティーのセグメントが大きな収益シェアを記録しました。ライトデューティNGVは、プロパン、LPG、圧縮天然ガス、またはその他の圧縮燃料で走行する自動車です。クリーン燃料の需要の高まりと、石油製品の利用による悪影響に対する懸念の高まりが、成長の原動力になると予測されています。
燃料タイプ別の展望
天然ガス自動車市場は、燃料の種類によってCNGとLNGに分類されます。CNGセグメントは、2021年の天然ガス自動車市場で最も高い収益シェアを獲得しました。このセグメントの拡大は、自動車の排出ガス削減と環境保護の強化を目的とした政府の取り組みが増加していることに起因していると考えられます。CNGは無毒であるため、環境への影響を軽減することができます。
地域別の展望
天然ガス自動車市場は、地域別に北米、欧州、アジア太平洋、LAMEAに分かれて分析されています。アジア太平洋地域は、2021年の天然ガス自動車市場において最大の収益シェアを調達しました。この拡大は、同地域における乗用車の生産と販売の増加に起因しています。インド、中国、パキスタンなどの国々で天然ガス設備が拡大したため、この地域は天然ガス車の最大の採用国となっています。例えばインドでは、石油天然ガス省が都市ガス供給(CGD)政策を策定しています。この政策に基づき、国はCNGインフラを全国に拡大することになります。
市場参入企業がとる主な戦略は、製品の上市です。カーディナルマトリックスで提示された分析によると、Cummins, Inc.とVolvo Groupが天然ガス自動車市場の先駆者です。Westport Fuel Systems, Inc.、Hexagon Agility, Inc.、CNH Industrial N.V.などの企業は、天然ガス自動車市場における主要な革新者の一人です。
List of Figures
The Global Automotive Natural Gas Vehicle Market size is expected to reach $14.3 billion by 2028, rising at a market growth of 5.9% CAGR during the forecast period.
Automotive natural gas vehicles use an alternative to diesel and gasoline, liquefied natural gas (LNG), or compressed natural gas (CNG). Buses, lift trucks, light and heavy vehicles, motorbikes, automobiles, vans, and locomotives make extensive use of natural gas. Natural gas is a more inexpensive and environmentally beneficial alternative to conventional fuels. Nowadays the penetration of automotive natural gas cars is rising due to their operating advantages. The increasing need for alternative fuels in the transportation field is prompting industry participants to use LNG for their operations. Consequently, the transportation industry is experiencing an increase in the requirement for LNG vehicles.
Natural gas vehicles function similarly to gasoline-powered automobiles. Typically, a natural gas vehicle's fuel tank or cylinder is located near the rear of the vehicle. Using fuel lines high-pressure gas is transferred from the gas tank by the fuel system to the combustion chamber. The fuel is then mixed with air inside the combustion chamber, where it is compressed and ignited with the help of a spark plug. It has been observed that vehicles powered by natural gas have low emissions and high performance.
Prominently, three varieties of NGVs exist namely, dedicated, dual-fuel, and bi-fuels. Dedicated vehicles are exclusively built to operate on natural gas. Bi-fuel vehicles are equipped with two distinct fueling systems that allow them to operate on either gasoline or natural gas. The dual-fuel systems vehicles run on natural gas, while diesel fuel is used to assist the ignition. Traditionally, this design is exclusive to heavy-duty trucks. Under pressure, CNG vehicles retain natural gas in containers where it stays in a gaseous state. Because LNG is kept as a liquid, its energy density is larger than that of CNG, allowing more fuel to be carried onboard a vehicle utilizing LNG. This makes LNG suitable for Class 7 and 8 trucks that require a longer range. Frequently, the choice of fuel is dictated by vehicle application requirements (e.g., energy requirements) and desired driving range.
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
The global economy suffered a significant setback because of the COVID-19 pandemic, which had a detrimental influence on automobile production. The pandemic caused political, social, and economic disruptions in important industries, which impeded growth to some degree. Several production facilities ceased operations as a consequence of the pandemic's effects on the supply chain. The outbreak had a severe influence on the sales of commercial and passenger vehicles, which in turn damaged the requirement for NGVs in the automotive industry. However, post-pandemic, a number of firms have reported an increase in sales of natural gas-powered vehicles, which is anticipated to propel the expansion of the automotive natural gas vehicle market throughout the forecast period.
Market Growth Factor
Nations face a growing need for vehicles that emit fewer pollutants
As many nations have become more worried about rising emissions, the spread of vehicles powered by low-emission fuels, such as CNG and LNG, may accelerate. Numerous nations have expressed a goal to reduce pollutants over the next few years, and they are enacting stricter regulations for these vehicles in the coming years. Many nations have already supported the development of alternative fuel vehicles like CNG and LNG in an effort to reduce gasoline import-related emissions and costs. Current automobiles can be easily and affordably converted to LNG or CNG fuel systems.
Increasing investment in vehicles with CNG backing
The sale of CNG and LNG automobiles as a less expensive alternative to gasoline/diesel vehicles has expanded dramatically in a number of automotive categories across the nation. Multiple times as many CNG-powered vehicles have been registered in recent years. In addition, the number of gasoline/CNG vehicle registration has also increased. Also, a substantial number of gasoline/hybrid vehicles are being produced to meet the expanding demand of the concerned populace.
Market Restraining Factor
Increase in electric vehicle demand
Changes in climate are occurring all around the planet. Countries around the world are taking steps to limit their emissions of greenhouse gases including carbon dioxide. Several nations throughout the world are embracing electric vehicles in order to reach their net-zero emission goals, which is growing the global demand for electric vehicles. Unlike conventional gasoline-powered vehicles, electric vehicles run on renewable power and produce no emissions. Eliminating the need for any other sort of engine, an electric vehicle features an electric motor that operates on battery-supplied electric power.
Vehicle Type Outlook
On the basis of vehicle type, the automotive natural gas vehicle market is divided into passenger vehicles, light-duty & heavy-duty buses and trucks, and three-wheelers. The light-duty and heavy-duty segments recorded a substantial revenue share in the automotive natural gas vehicle market in 2021. Light-duty NGVs are automobiles that run on propane, LPG, compressed natural gas, or other compressed fuels. Growth is predicted to be fueled by rising clean fuel demand as well as growing worries about the negative effects of utilizing petroleum goods.
Fuel Type Outlook
Based on fuel type, the automotive natural gas vehicle market is categorized into CNG and LNG. The CNG segment garnered the highest revenue share in the automotive natural gas vehicle market in 2021. The expansion of this segment can be ascribed to the growing number of government efforts aimed at reducing vehicle emissions and enhancing environmental protection. The non-toxicity of CNG reduces its environmental impact.
Regional Outlook
Based on region, the automotive natural gas vehicle market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and LAMEA. The Asia Pacific segment procured the maximum revenue share in the automotive natural gas vehicle market in 2021. This expansion is attributable to increased passenger car production and sales in the region. Due to the growth of natural gas facilities in nations like India, China, and Pakistan, this area is the biggest adopter of natural gas vehicles. In India, for instance, the City Gas Distribution (CGD) policy was developed by the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas. In accordance with the policy, the state would extend CNG infrastructure nationwide.
