Power-to-gas Market

Market Overview:

The global power-to-gas market size reached US$ 39.2 Million in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 92.9 Million by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 9.78% during 2024-2032. The growing demand for renewable hydrogen, rising utilization of fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs), and the escalating demand for electrolyzer technology represent some of the key factors driving the market.

Power-to-gas (P2G) is a process wherein electrical energy is converted into chemical energy through gas production. It relies on the electrolysis process to produce hydrogen gas that can be used directly as a final energy carrier or converted to methane, synthesis gas, electricity, liquid fuels, or chemicals during the second stage process. It assists in converting renewable energy into natural gas and storing it in existing natural gas infrastructure. It also aids in transforming surplus power from wind farms, which can be fed into the local grid, delivered to surrounding industrial companies, or provided to regional filling stations. It stores energy for an extended period by converting it to other easily storable energy carriers while reducing the load on the electricity grid by controlling operations. It also facilitates the anaerobic digestion processes, where microorganisms are broken-down to organic matter to produce fuels. As it is an effective means of transitioning to a greener natural gas mix, the demand for P2G is rising across the globe. 

Power-to-gas Market Trends:

At present, there is a rise in the demand for renewable hydrogen, which has the potential to decarbonize multiple sectors across the globe. This, along with the escalating demand for electrolyzer technology due to its cost-effectiveness, represents one of the key factors supporting the growth of the market. Besides this, there is an increase in the demand for hydrogen as a clean fuel in light vehicles, railways, and marine applications to reduce greenhouse gas emissions around the world. This, coupled with the growing utilization of fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs), which require high-purity hydrogen fuel, is positively influencing the market. In addition, various technological developments in hydrogen production technology and hydrogen engine technology are offering lucrative growth opportunities to industry investors. Moreover, the rising demand for P2G technology to use existing gas transmission infrastructure for transporting energy in the form of green hydrogen over long distances is propelling the growth of the market. Apart from this, various benefits offered by P2G technology over conventional energy storage technologies, such as higher power storage capacity and longer discharge times, are strengthening the growth of the market. Additionally, the increasing demand for P2G technology due to the falling costs of renewable energy technologies, such as solar and wind, is bolstering the growth of the market.
