The market has experienced significant growth in recent years and is expected to maintain a strong pace of expansion in the coming years. The growth in the natural gas market is contributed by several factors such as the global shift towards cleaner energy solutions, increased utilization in industrial processes, technological advancements, and expansion of liquefied natural gas (LNG) infrastructure.
Natural gas is a cleaner alternative to coal and oil which drives its demand in various applications such as in power generation, residential, and industrial application. Natural gas is highly efficient and comes up with a lower emissions profile which fosters the natural gas market trend in industrial applications such as chemicals, and manufacturing. Globally, the power sector is mainly focused on producing more power with an emphasis on reducing carbon emissions which leads to increased demand for natural gas. In addition, several regions are adopting natural gas as a primary fuel to meet rising electricity needs while adhering to environmental regulations. The shift toward natural gas contributes to overall natural gas market growth in the coming years.
Furthermore, the rapid economic growth in the developing region is substantially driving energy demand which driving the need for natural gas in the market. The fast-growing markets in Asia account for a large amount of the growth while a rebound in Europe's industrial gas demand is also contributing to the market growth. In addition, the investment in natural gas extraction and distribution projects is increasing which is boosting the natural gas market growth in coming years.
For instance, global natural gas investment is expected to be around USD 9 trillion by 2050 in which upstream sector will get more than USD 8 trillion and midstream sector will be allotted remaining amount.
Transition to Cleaner Energy Sources Augmenting Market Growth
Natural gas has been identified as a transitional fuel that propels the nations to change from fossil fuels such as coal and oil to less carbon emission fuels for electricity generation. Nations are replacing coal with natural gas for electricity generation. Its lower carbon footprint makes natural gas a preferred fuel for nations seeking to cut greenhouse gas emissions while continuing to serve the energy needs in the nation. Natural gas is utilized in gas turbines and steam turbines to meet the growing need for electricity especially in developing countries.
Replacement of coal with advanced natural gas facilities reduced emissions by over 50% per unit of electricity produced. The trend is specifically relevant for major coal-consuming nations like China and India, where natural gas can have a decisive impact in powering a decarbonization process in the power sector. The United States consumption of natural gas used for power generation grew 9.4% (3.1 Bcf/d), and consumption in the industrial sector grew 4.4% (1.1 Bcf/d) during December 2024.
For instance, in October 2024, Dominion Energy introduced a new plan with aim of long-term electricity generation. The new plan will produce most of its energy from the resources such as natural gas. This plan will lead to the adoption of natural gas in the power generation sector. Similarly, in 2023, the United States natural gas consumption is accounted 40% in the electric power sector.
Rise in Use of Natural Gas in Residential Sector Driving Market Growth
The growing population and urbanization trend in developing countries contribute to the rise in energy demands in residential areas. The growth of urban areas and apartments fuels the demand for stable energy sources such as natural gas to service the new apartment complexes and energy requirements in future years. Further, natural gas is emerging as a major source of cooking and heating for the residential market in the Europe region that fuels the market growth. In addition, the housing sector is seeking to switch from oil and coal-fired heating equipment and appliances to natural gas sources to reduce carbon emissions in the atmosphere. Moving toward clean energy sources enhances the efficiency of heating systems and is also in line with governmental policies to minimize air pollution and greenhouse gases.
In several regions, governments and higher authorities are promoting the use of natural gas through incentives and subsidies aimed at reducing reliance on more polluting fuels. The policies encourage the residential sector to switch to natural gas for different applications which drives the demand for natural gas in the market. For instance, in 2023, the United States residential sector consumed around 14 % of natural gas and about 41% of the country residential sector end-use energy consumption was natural gas. Further about 60% of the United States homes use natural gas for space and water heating, cooking, and clothes drying.
Investment in Infrastructure Development Creates Market Opportunity
Globally, the investment in building natural gas infrastructure including investments in pipelines and distribution networks will improve the access of natural gas and facilitate the access of various sectors to natural gas. Good infrastructure promotes the efficient supply of natural gas, which encourages the use of natural gas in residential and power generation sectors. Investments in the natural gas infrastructure lead to an expansion of the market's capacity to deliver gas efficiently.
