Global Coal Fired Power Generation Market By Technology (Pulverized Coal Systems, Cyclone Furnace, and Other Technologies), By Application (Residential, and Commercial), By Region and Companies - Industry Segment Outlook, Market Assessment, Competition Scenario, Trends and Forecast 2022-2032

Coal-Fired Power Generation Market Overview:

In 2021, the global coal-fired power generation market was 1,998.5 GW. It is expected to expand at a CAGR of 6.2% The market is expected to grow due to strong energy demand over the forecast period.

For coal-fired power generation, there are many technologies available, including pulverized coal firing and cyclone furnace. Because of its availability and low cost, coal is a major source of power generation. Nearly half the world’s electricity needs can be met using coal-generated power.

Global Coal Fired Power Generation Market Scope:

Technology Analysis

The global market was dominated by pulverized coal firing technology, which accounted for almost half the market share. Next came cyclone furnace tech. In order to make the boiler volume available for combustion, pulverized coal-fired boilers burn coal. Pulverized coal is faster to react to load changes because the rate of combustion can easily be controlled. The second most popular method of power generation is cyclone furnace technology.

Because of their relatively low emission standards, other technologies such as fluidized bed combustion and coal gasification are expected to grow rapidly. These new technologies will see a 3.9% CAGR over the forecast period. Electricity generating companies have switched to cleaner technologies like fluidized bed combustion and coal gasification due to stringent environmental regulations.

Application Analysis

In the past, more than half the market share for coal-fired electricity was held by the commercial applications segment. This dominance is expected to continue in the future. This trend can be attributed mainly to rapid industrialization, particularly in developing countries.

From 2023 to 2032, commercial applications will experience a CAGR between 3.3% and 5.3%. Residential applications are expected to experience significant growth during the forecast period.

This strong commercial application growth can be attributed to increasing industrialization and urbanization, especially in developing regions like the Asia Pacific. Industry participants have ample opportunity to benefit from R&D initiatives that increase efficiency, reduce operating costs, and simplify logistical processes.

Market Dynamics:

Rapid industrialization and urbanization in developing countries, especially in the Asia Pacific and Latin America have led to a rapid increase in electricity demand over the years, for residential and commercial applications. Market growth may be impeded by the introduction of environmentally-friendly technologies. Market growth will be further slowed by strict regulations on greenhouse gas emissions. Alternative electricity generation technologies are preferred.

Another factor that encourages electricity producers to choose coal as their main power source is the volatile price of other power generation fuels like oil and natural gas.

Multiple regulations have been issued by government agencies and environmental protection agencies in response to growing environmental concerns. Many alternative power generation technologies have been developed thanks to technological innovation. They are more efficient and produce fewer emissions.

Several initiatives have been taken by governments around the world to promote alternative sources of electricity. These stringent regulatory frameworks, combined with cleaner alternatives, are expected to hinder the global market.

Regional Analysis

The Asia Pacific was the dominant market for global coal-fired electricity generation in recent years, holding a 55% market share. It is expected that the CAGR will be 6.8% between 2023 and 2032. The region’s economy will be supported by countries like India and China over the forecast period. The Asia Pacific region’s growing industrialization and future power projects are key factors driving the growth of the coal-fired energy market.

Due to strict regulatory measures, Western markets like North America and Europe will likely experience a slower rate of growth than the Asia Pacific. Environmental concerns are increasing, which has led to increased acceptance of alternative sources of power generation, especially in Europe. This acceptance of alternative power sources will likely slow down growth in certain markets.
