Global steam turbine demand was 65,999.7MW in 2019, and it is projected to grow at a compound annual rate (CAGR of 1.18%) between 2020-2027. The steam turbine is an integral part of the thermal power plants. Market growth will be driven by the increased deployment of combined cycle power plants. The market for steam turbines has been driven by fossil-fuel-based power generation sources. They are able to provide base load power and have dominated the global power sector. The market will be driven by technological advances in steam turbine design, as well as research on clean coke technology.
Due to the increased use of combined cycle gas-based power generation plants, the U.S. became a major market for steam turbines in 2019. The dominating share of the U.S.'s power sector was 62.7%, with natural gas accounting for 38.4% and coal at 23.5%.
Industries across the United States have been forced to adopt energy-efficient practices and systems as a result of increasing awareness about energy efficiency. There has been an increase of waste heat recovery power generation projects in America, which primarily use steam turbines for power generation. These factors will likely boost the U.S. market's growth over the forecast period.
Market growth will be boosted by constant investments in power generation capacity worldwide to meet the growing electricity demand. Other factors driving product demand include the increasing penetration of cogeneration systems and rapid development in emerging countries.
The rise in environmental concerns about coal-based power generation has forced governments to take steps to reduce their dependence on coke-based power generation. The majority of countries are choosing renewable power generation technologies, and imposing emission reduction standards on coal-based power plants. This is likely to limit market growth.
The market can be divided by the type of capacity: 150 mw (151-300), and 300 MW. With a volume share of 60%, the >300 MW steam turbine capacity segment was the dominant segment in 2019. This is due to an increase in the use of ultra and supercritical thermal powers plants as well as the planned renovation of fossil-fuel based power generators.
Positive government policies and rising economic growth factors have led to the healthy expansion in the industries. This will in turn fuel the growth in the 151-300MW steam turbine capacity segment. The segment will grow due to rapid industrialization, rising demand, and the expansion of generating capacities for captive power plants.
A majority of countries have opted for combined cycle gas-based power plant designs, which use both steam turbine and gas turbine s . These factors will increase the growth in the 151-300MW steam turbine capacity segment during the forecast period.
The growth in the use of renewable energy technologies such as HTML5_ and geothermal energy will be a major factor in the growth of the 150MW steam turbine capacity segment. In the near future, the growth of the 150MW segment will be positively impacted by the deployment waste to energy and heat recovery projects.
The market for steam turbines can be divided by end-use. In terms of volume, the power and utility segment held a dominant position of 89.7% in 2019. It is expected to maintain its lead over the forecast period. The segment has seen significant growth due to the large global share of fossil fuel-based power generation sources.
The development of fossil-fuel-based power generation plants is expected to be boosted by the rising power demand from residential, commercial and industrial sectors. These factors will lead to the growth in the utility and power segment over the forecast period.
The market's industrial segment has been driven by a strong industrial sector and government initiatives to improve domestic manufacturing. These units can be found in a variety of industries such as chemical, sugar, and heat and electricity generation. The product will be more widely adopted if there is increased investment in new industrial hubs.
Due to the growing number of industrial operations in the region, the industrial end-use segment will likely grow at a rapid pace. Due to growing power generation demand, thermal capacity is increasing each year. The industrial segment has seen a rise in demand for steam turbines to power captive power plants. This is due to frequent load shedding, blackouts and power outages.
Asia Pacific was responsible for the largest volume share at 76.8% in 2019, China and India dominate the regional market. The demand for steam turbines has increased due to the high growth rates of the respective industries in India and China.
Asia Pacific will continue to lead the market due to the development of a variety of biomass- and fossil-fuel-based power plants in countries like Indonesia, South Korea and Thailand. This will help to boost the growth of this market.
Europe will experience a slowdown in growth over the forecast period. This is mainly due to the shift from traditional energy sources to cleaner, more sustainable and renewable energy sources. The region's increase in biomass-fired power plants, waste energy plants ,, and waste heat recovery power generation will help boost Europe's market growth.
Due to the installation of many fossil-fuel-based power generation plants in countries such as Iran, Oman, UAE and Egypt, the Middle East and Africa held a substantial market share in 2019. The region is also expected to grow in the future due to the installation of a variety of fossil-fuel based power generator projects.
