Wood Gas Generator Market is expected to grow dramatically over next seven years

Global wood gas generator market is expected to grow dramatically over next seven years on account of increasing demand as major fuel in internal combustion (IC) engines. Wood gas generator is basically used to convert timber or charcoal into combustible gas. Wood gas, also known as syngas, consists of atmospheric gases such as nitrogen, hydrogen, carbon monoxide and methane traces, which is used to power internal combustion engines. Increasing energy demand along with a goal to reduce carbon footprint levels in the environment is anticipated to be a key factor driving global wood gas generator market growth in the upcoming years. Wood gas is largely preferred over petroleum and coal based fuels owing to volatile crude oil prices and ecofriendly nature. Moreover, wood gas is increasingly being used to efficiently run power plant gas turbines owing to depleting conventional sources. Potential to substitute the conventional fossil fuels is anticipated to have positively impact the market penetration in near future.

Growing demand for converting waste charcoal and timber into efficient energy sources coupled with minimal carbon emission is expected to augment wood gas generator demand over the forecast period. The gas generator has a closed carbon cycle (CCC) which helps in reducing harmful emissions as compared to conventional generators. This advantageous characteristic helps in maintaining sustainability in nature, which in turn is increasing overall demand particularly in mature economies such as U.S. and European Union owing to stringent emission norms. Wood gas generator is known for its feasible use in stationary designs particularly for small and medium combined power & heat scenarios. Furthermore, simple design and low fabrication cost along with uneven oil and gas reserves distribution is further predicted to drive global wood gas generator demand over the forecast period.
