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.
Liquefied Petroleum Gas, also known as autogas or propane is flammable mixture of hydrocarbon gases such as propane, butane and combination of these gases. Autogas is lower carbon, clean and effective source of energy. Pressurized cylindrical containers are used for the transportation and storage of LPG. Autogas is used for wide variety of applications such as cooking, agriculture, hospitality, construction, sailing among numerous others. It is used worldwide due to its cost effectiveness, convenience and economic reasons.
However, being a form of gas, it does not pollute ground or water sources as it is utilized without ash. It is used as an alternative fuel in Light Motor Vehicles (LMV’s) and transportation vehicles as it reduces the carbon emissions in vehicles as well as stationary applications such as cooking gas and generators.
The usage of LPG in residential & commercial sectors has attributed to replacement of conventional natural resources such as coal, wood etc.
Rising awareness of estimated scarcity of natural resources, easy availability alongside budget is likely to foster the growth of liquefied petroleum gas market in near future.
Market of Liquefied Petroleum Gas has generated market size of 328 million tons in the recent past. Booming initiatives by government to encourage LPG applications with respect to its extensive benefits in commercial and residential sectors has estimated the market growth over the forecast period.CLICK TO DOWNLOAD FREE SAMPLE
