Market Definition
The term 'small-scale LNG' refers to the direct use of liquefied natural gas in its liquid form. The growth in the small-scale LNG market is catalyzed by increasingly stringent environmental regulations and the industry’s ability to unlock new seams of consumption.
North America Small-scale LNG Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Increasing demand for natural gas for the production of electricity
Small-scale LNG plays a role in enhancing energy security and diversification. It allows regions and countries to access natural gas resources even if they do not have access to large-scale infrastructure or domestic gas reserves. Small-scale LNG terminals and distribution networks can provide a reliable and secure energy supply for industries and communities. This, in turn, is expected to carve the way for the growth of the market.
- Rising energy transition and environmental concerns
The increasing focus on reducing greenhouse gas emissions and transitioning towards cleaner fuels has driven the demand for natural gas, including LNG. Small-scale LNG offers a cleaner alternative to traditional fuels, such as coal and heavy fuel oil, making it an attractive option for industries and transportation sectors looking to reduce their carbon footprint.
- Growing industrial applications
Small-scale LNG is used in various industrial applications, such as power generation, heating, and cooling. Industries that require a consistent and reliable source of energy, such as manufacturing, mining, and petrochemicals, can benefit from the use of small-scale LNG to meet their energy needs.
Opportunities
Furthermore, an upsurge in the public-private funding for target research activities, rising demand for LNG in remote and off-grid areas, and technological advancements across North America countries will extend profitable opportunities for the market players in the forecast period of 2023 to 2030.
Restraints/Challenges
On the other hand, high costs associated with infrastructural development, regulatory and permitting challenges, and stiff competition from alternative fuels are expected to obstruct market growth. Also, lack of awareness, limited LNG infrastructure and distribution networks, and requirement for trained labor is projected to challenge the market in the forecast period of 2023-2030.
