The Global Natural Gas Generator Market was worth US$ 8.16 billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach a valuation of US$ 12.96 billion by 2029 from 8.82 billion in 2024 and is predicted to register a CAGR of 8% during 2024-2029.
Natural gas generators are commonly used generators that use natural gas to generate energy. Internal combustion engines use a piston to compress the air-fuel combination in the combustion chamber. The air-fuel mixture is ignited via a spark plug. Natural gases are rare earth minerals that people can access via gas pipes or cylinders. Natural gas generators are used to generate power in both enterprises and homes. Natural gas generators have a higher operating cost than other types of generators, such as diesel generators. Natural gas is one of the most cost-effective and reliable nonrenewable energy sources for electricity generation.
The development of environmentally friendly alternatives to diesel generators, such as natural gas generators that help reduce carbon emissions, has gained traction and is propelling the market forward. Furthermore, increasing demand for energy from various end-use industries, as well as industrialization, urbanization, and rising population levels, is pressuring the need for an effective and efficient source of power generation, boosting natural gas generator adoption and market expansion.
Natural gas generators are gaining ground as the use of diesel and oil declines, as they are responsible for a large portion of carbon emissions. Natural gas generators come in a variety of sizes that can be used in residential, commercial, and modern applications. Furthermore, using a natural gas generator is cost-effective and advantageous. A substantial portion of the market is mechanical headway in the production of coastal oil and gas. Existing oilfields are being re-investigated, and atypical assets are being encouraged for generation in order for oil and gas companies to boost their creation yield. In this approach, oil and gas companies have extended their operations in order to increase profitability while lowering natural gas costs.
Due to the burning of fuel, traditional generators release hazardous pollutants such as nitrogen oxide, hydrocarbons, and carbon monoxide. As a result, many regulatory authorities have enacted strict laws prohibiting the use of diesel generators. This has led to the growth of eco-friendly alternatives to diesel generators, such as the natural gas generator market industry.
The demand for reliable and continuous power supply is expected to rise as a result of the multifold growth in various industrial sectors combined with the population explosion. Because every data centre requires a generator to avoid a power outage, information and communication technology plays a critical role in determining the industry's scale. In addition, gas-fired generators are frequently used to meet the rising demand for electricity in various commercial and industrial applications. As a result, the natural gas generator market is predicted to increase rapidly over the forecast period.
The world's economic development is based on energy. However, the exponential usage of fossil fuels has posed severe environmental hazards, including deforestation, rising sea levels, global warming, and so on. International regulatory and government organizations have taken the lead in reducing pollution severity by implementing sustainable energy development projects. The program intends to evolve the global economy by investing in environmentally benign and long-term energy sources. As a result, favourable government policies and public awareness of global warming are likely to provide a profitable market for natural gas generators.
The industry's scope is anticipated to be limited as the market shifts to embrace clean and environmentally friendly energy sources such as solar, wind, and biogas. Furthermore, natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, floods, and tornadoes are common, posing a risk to pipeline infrastructure and disrupting natural gas supplies. These issues are expected to stifle the worldwide natural gas generator market's expansion.
The COVID-19 pandemic had a negative influence on the global natural gas generator industry due to lower power demand, primarily from institutional clients (industrial and commercial), as many manufacturing plants and retail establishments were shut down during the lockdown.
The lack of gas grid connectivity via pipeline, which results in a stifled fuel supply, is projected to be a stumbling block in the market for natural gas generators in the coming years.

For the forecast period 2024–2029, the above 750kVA segment is likely to dominate the global natural gas generator market because coal-fired power plants will be replaced with gas-fired power plants, which will decrease GHG emissions. Moreover, many industries, such as oil and gas, construction, and mining, are adopting natural gas generators to ensure a continuous power supply and no blackouts.
The continuous power supply segment is expected to dominate the global natural gas generator market because varied industries are now investing huge amounts in energy infrastructure. The energy & power sector has become an integral part of economic development in countries all over the world. Slowly and steadily, they are shifting from traditional power plants to natural gas generators.
The industrial sector is anticipated to account for around 60.55% of the global natural gas generator market share. As the worldwide population is growing daily, so are their needs. This, in turn, has increased the demand for consumer goods, which has caused companies to increase production. More production requires more energy supply, thus causing a high demand for continuous power supply.
Natural gas consumption in North America has increased by 25% in the last ten years, and the availability of rich natural gas resources across shale regions is expected to drive demand for gas generators during the projection period. Natural gas will account for approximately 40% of North America's operating power-generating capacity in 2023, displacing coal as the primary energy source. As a result, higher natural gas utilization for electricity generation boosts market growth. As air emission regulations in the United States become more rigorous, along with the advantages to the environment, demand for gas generators is likely to skyrocket.
The Asia Pacific is expected to account for 20% of the natural gas generator market by 2029, according to the regional platform. The region's growth can be ascribed to an increase in the use of clean energy, as well as an increase in the number of industries in the area. Furthermore, the government's support of the use of renewable energy sources, as well as the growing pace of urbanization, are likely to propel the natural gas generator market in the Asia Pacific to new heights. The region's most important markets are China and India.
During the projected period of 2024-2029, the European natural gas generator market is expected to grow at a substantial CAGR of 8.9%. The rise of aftermarket natural gas generators in Europe is projected to be fueled by increased infrastructural development. In addition, infrastructural development and industrialization are expected to pick up in the next years. During the forecast period, this aspect is likely to fuel the expansion of the Europe natural gas generator market, which will, in turn, fuel the growth of the aftermarket Europe natural gas generator market.
Companies playing a prominent role in the global natural gas generator market include Generac Holdings Inc., Caterpillar Inc., Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd, Cummins Inc., Kohler Co., Aggreko Plc., APR Energy Inc., Briggs & Stratton Corporation, Doosan Corporation, Multiquip Inc., and Others.
