The said research study incorporates an in-depth analysis of multiple market segments based on source, application, and geographical distribution.

The global compressed natural gas (CNG) market is becoming increasingly competitive, with a growing number of mergers and collaborations between market players to reach full capabilities and gain an international footprint. In addition, several players are also focused on developing their niche in the market. This market’s rapid growth has also resulted in the creation of additional skilled job opportunities in major hubs across North America, Europe, Latin America, and Asia Pacific.

Based on the source, the global CNG market is categorized into three categories: associated gas, non-associated gas, and unconventional gas. On the basis of application, the global CNG market is segmented into light passenger vehicles, medium- and heavy-duty buses, medium- and heavy-duty trucks, and others (autos). In addition, natural gas-producing companies, refining companies, and academic organizations form the major client types for the CNG market. The market size (US$ Bn) and forecast for all the considered segmentations are presented in this report for the period 2013–2024, along with their respective CAGRs (%) for the forecast period 2016–2024.

Based on the application, the global compressed natural gas (CNG) market is segmented as follows:

• Light Passenger Vehicles
• Medium-duty/heavy-duty (MD/HD) Buses
• Medium-duty/heavy-duty (MD/HD) Trucks
• Others (Autos)

The global compressed natural gas (CNG) market is classified according to application. Among applications, the light passenger vehicle segment was observed to be the largest segment in 2015 in the compressed natural gas (CNG) market, owing to the growing popularity of CNG as an auto fuel due to the higher efficiency of CNG-powered vehicles. Further, growth in the number of passenger cars due to increasing per capita disposable income of the middle class, especially in China and India, is expected to increase the demand for automobile fuel, which in turn is projected to fuel the demand for CNG during the forecast period.

The segment is anticipated to grow at a significant rate and is projected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period. The segment is anticipated to witness high growth over the forecast period (2016–2024). Medium- and heavy-duty buses and trucks are expected to collectively account for over 35% of the revenue share of the global compressed natural gas market.

Both segments are anticipated to grow at a significant rate owing to various government initiatives across key regions of the globe to promote CNG-operated buses and trucks with a focus on minimizing greenhouse gas emissions. The segment is expected to gain significant market share by 2023.

Based on the source, the global compressed natural gas (CNG) market is segmented as follows:

• Associated Gas
• Non-Associated Gas
• Unconventional Gas

The global compressed natural gas (CNG) market is classified according to its source. Among sources, the non-associated segment was the most dominant segment in 2015 and is anticipated to continue its dominance over the forecast period. Increasing exploration and production of conventional natural gas reserves, especially in the Middle East and Africa, is anticipated to drive the growth of the segment during the forecast period.

The unconventional gas segment is expected to be the fastest-growing segment during the forecast period. Growing shale gas production in the U.S., Canada, and China is anticipated to fuel the supply of natural gas through unconventional reserves over the forecast period (2016–2024).

For the purpose of this study, the global compressed natural gas (CNG) market is categorized into three segments:

• North America
• Europe
• Asia Pacific
• Latin America (LATAM)
• Middle East and Africa (MEA)

Asia Pacific is projected to be the key consuming market in the global compressed natural gas (CNG) market during the forecast period (2016–2024). An increasing number of natural gas-powered automobiles coupled with increased investment in infrastructure for CNG storage and distribution facilities in the region is projected to augment the demand for CNG in the region.

Further favorable regulatory support is needed to promote CNG as an alternative auto fuel due to its low greenhouse gas emission characteristics. The region is also projected to witness the highest growth over the forecast period (2016–2024). Following it, North America is expected to be the second-largest market in the global CNG market. Natural gas vehicle fuel consumption has witnessed a growth of 10% since 2015, coupled with favorable regulatory policies and a growing desire to earn carbon credits. The region is projected to grow at a steady rate during the forecast period (2016–2024).
