Segments of the Methanol Market
The report has segmented the market into a few segments based on feedstock, end-use industry, and regional analysis.
- By feedstock, the coal sub-segment is anticipated to have a dominant market share and garner a revenue of $13,582.8 million during the forecast years due to its lower prices and the presence of vast coal reserves. In addition, growing use of coal can also address the issues of declined fuel supplies and reducing carbon emissions. These factors are expected to bolster the sub-segment's growth by 2030.
- By end-use industry, the automotive sub-segment of the global methanol market is predicted to have a significant market share and gather a revenue of $11,028.7 million during the analysis timeframe due to the wide utilization of methanol as a motor fuel in the automotive industry. Methanol has high octane content that is essential for improving vehicle efficiency and enhancing acceleration and power. Moreover, methanol as a motor fuel offers low price per calorie, is safer, and utilizes existing infrastructure, thus further propelling the sub-segment's growth.
- By region, the methanol market in the Asia-Pacific region is projected to have the fastest growth rate of 4.9% CAGR during the 2022-2030 forecast period due to its wide use as a low-emission alternative fuel. Moreover, as per NITI Aayog, the Indian government agency, the methanol production would be increased to 20MT by using biomass, high ash coal, and stranded gas. Also, use of methanol in power generation, mobile towers, diesel gensets, industrial boilers, etc. is estimated to further augment the market growth in the Asia-Pacific region by 2030.
