URBAN GAS MARKET REPORT OVERVIEW

The Urban Gas Market, valued at USD 32.29 billion in 2024, is forecasted to increase to USD 33.55 billion in 2025 and surpass USD 45.57 billion by 2033, expanding at a CAGR of 3.9% from 2025 to 2033.

The sudden spike in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

Urban gas is a combustible blend of hydrocarbon gases that is utilized as fuel across a range of end-use industries. During the processing of petroleum crude oil and natural gas, it is made from fossil fuels. Urban gas is widely utilized in several applications in the healthcare, agricultural, construction, and automotive sectors, hence it is anticipated that the global market for urban gas will grow steadily throughout the forecast period. Because it is economical and effective, cooking with liquefied petroleum gas is a popular activity in both household and commercial settings.

Burying dead plants and animals’ results in the production of natural gas. Natural gas is produced as a result of a process that is set off by the intense heat and pressure that come with burying dead plants and animals. Natural gas is extracted using specialized or cutting-edge production processes. Unconventional gas is the name for the gas. Gas hydrates, tight gas, coal bed methane, shale gas, and tight gas are examples of unconventional gases. The discovery of unconventional oil and gas was a significant development for the global oil sector.

COVID-19 IMPACT

Temporary Bans on Manufacturing and Processing to Challenge the Market Growth

Lockdown measures established in response to the COVID-19 pandemic led to temporary bans on manufacturing and processing, as well as import and export, across a range of industries, which reduced consumer demand for urban gas. Market growth was reduced as a result. On the other hand, a recovery in the urban gas market is anticipated.

LATEST TRENDS

Search of Green Solution to Boost the Market

Companies are now forced to search for green solutions as a result of growing awareness of environmental concerns and the enforcement of strict rules and regulations by governmental regulatory agencies. Urban gas is being utilized as a substitute for gasoline and diesel more and more, according to recent changes in the market. Gas from cities is a clean fuel. For businesses, using urban gas offers a practical answer. Thus, it is anticipated that the urban gas market would be driven throughout the forecast period by an increase in demand for urban gas in emerging nations like India, Indonesia, Brazil, Mexico, and Nigeria for transportation, cooking, and many other industrial purposes.

DRIVING FACTORS

Urbanization and Industrialization to Propel the Market Growth

Over the past few years, there has been a major global expansion in urbanization, industrialization, and globalization. However, due to cheaper labor and infrastructural costs, the flow of investment has shifted from developed to developing countries. In underdeveloped nations, environmental laws and regulations are also less strict. A corporation will benefit from this to its advantage. Increased investments in industry and urbanization have increased family income as well as the discretionary income of the middle class and lower-middle-class people. As a result, urban gas has been used in the residential and transportation sectors.

Less Expensive Refining Process to Augment the Demands

Natural gas may be converted into urban gas without the requirement for an oil refinery; all that is required is a plant for gas separation that can extract the appropriate gases. As a result, producing urban gas from natural gas rather than crude oil in refineries is less expensive. Tankers or pipelines may be used to deliver urban gas that has been extracted.

The urban gas produced from natural gas liquids is therefore anticipated to rule the urban gas market over the projected period based on the aforementioned criteria.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

Irregular Domestic Supply to Impede the Market

The primary issues impeding the expansion of the urban gas market are the industry's rapid development in the field of renewable energy and the erratic domestic supply of urban gas.

URBAN GAS MARKET REGIONAL INSIGHTS

Asia Pacific to Hold the Largest Global Urban Gas Market Share

A sizeable portion of the worldwide industry was dominated by the Asia Pacific region. During the forecast period, the region is anticipated to have the quickest rate of growth in the worldwide urban gas market. With a larger market share than any other country in the Asia Pacific, China is a significant market for liquefied petroleum gas. Since a few years ago, governments in the area have encouraged the use of urban gas for cooking in rural regions, which is expected to increase demand for urban gas in the future. For instance, the Indian government offers free liquefied petroleum gas cylinders and subsidies to the nation's rural districts. In addition, the region's major market for urban gas is North America.
