In 2018, the world’s total energy supply was 14282 Mtoe, wherein the highest share in terms of source was captured by oil, accounting for 31.6%, followed by coal (26.9%), natural gas (22.8%), biofuels and waste (9.3%), nuclear (4.9%), hydro (2.5%), and other (2.0%). Where there was an increase in energy demand in 2018, the year 2019 witnessed slow growth as the energy efficiency improved owing to decline in the demand for cooling and heating. However, in 2020, the electricity demand decreased by 2.5% in the first quarter of 2020 due to the outbreak of Coronavirus resulting in government imposed shutdowns in order to limit the spread of the virus, which was further followed by shutdown of numerous business operations impacting their growth. This also resulted in decline of 5.8% in the worldwide CO2 emissions which was recorded to be five times larger than the one recorded during the global financial crisis in 2009. However, in 2021, the demand for oil, gas and coal is estimated to witness growth, which is further projected to create opportunities for market growth. Moreover, rising environment degradation and awareness related to climate change is motivating many key players to employ sustainable energy strategies and invest significantly in environment-friendly power generation technologies with an aim to promote sustainable development among various nations around the world. Such factors are anticipated to promote the growth of the market in upcoming years.
The market is segmented by product type into dry & semi dry flue-gas desulfurization system and wet flue-gas desulfurization system, out of which, the wet flue-gas desulfurization system segment is estimated to account for the major share in the market throughout the forecast period on the back of its high efficiency in removing sulphur dioxide and growing demand for wet flue-gas desulfurization systems from coal fired power plants. Moreover, growing demand for gypsum, which is a by-product of wet flue-gas desulfurization systems, from the cement and fertilizer industries, is also anticipated to drive the growth of the segment during the forecast period.

Regionally, the global flue-gas desulfurization market is segmented into five major regions including North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America and Middle East & Africa region. The market in the Asia Pacific region is estimated to witness the largest market share over the forecast period on the back of presence of numerous coal-fired power plants in the region, along with the rising pollution levels from industries, and the rapid growth in industrial sectors in emerging countries, such as India and China. Further, stringent emission standards and rising investments for the expansion of coal-fired generation power plants are anticipated to propel the growth of the market. Alternatively, the market in the North America region is estimated to witness notable growth rate during the forecast period primarily owing to the rising demand for electricity in the region and for the need to regulate the emissions from the existing coal-fired power plants. According to the statistics by the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), net generation of electricity from coal in the United States in the year 2020 was recorded to 773,805 Thousand Megawatthours.
The global flue-gas desulfurization market is further classified on the basis of region as follows:

In 2023, market players might incur losses due to huge gap in currency translation followed by contracting revenues, shrinking profit margins & cost pressure on logistics and supply chain.
Controlling Inflation has become the first priority for global economies from last quarter of 2022 and to be followed in 2023. With skewed economic situations, rise in interest rate by governments to control spending and inflation, spiked oil and gas prices, high inflation, geo-political issues including U.S. & China trade war, Russia-Ukraine conflict to intensify the global economic issues.
The interest rates in the U.S. may be less sensitive in 2023 as compared to 2022; sigh of relief for businesses. Positive business sentiments, healthy business balance sheets, growth in construction spending (private construction value in 2022 stood at $1,429.2 billion, 11.7 percent (±1.0 percent) above the $1,279.5 billion spent in 2021, Residential construction in 2022 was $899.1 billion, up by 13.3 percent (±2.1 percent) from $793.7 billion in 2021, non-residential construction touched $530.1 billion, 9.1 percent (±1.0 percent) above the $485.8 billion in 2021.) showcases minimal impact of recession in the country.
Similarly, spiked spending in the European and major Asia economics including, India, China & Japan to showcase less impact on the global demand.
