Request InsightsThe global flue-gas desulfurization market is anticipated to grow with a CAGR of ~6% during the forecast period, i.e., 2022-2030. The market is anticipated to grow on account of the strict government regulations in order to control air pollution along with the rapid growth in the industrial sector. Further, the installation of air quality control equipment in plants of various sulphur dioxide emitting industries is fostering the market growth. The growing advancements in the features of flue-gas desulfurization systems in order to increase efficiency are estimated to generate huge demand for the product. In addition, the rising demand for FGDs from coal fired power plants on the back of presence of high sulphur content in the power plants resulting into the emission of major sulphur pollutants is accelerating the growth of the market. Moreover, increasing number of coal powered plants and the rising generation of electricity from coal are some of the additional factors anticipated to drive the market growth during the forecast period. According to the statistics by the United States Energy Information Administration (EIA), electricity generation from fossil fuels grew from 13620.69 Billion kWh in 2010 to 16148.37 Billion kWh in 2018.
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.

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.
