The CNG Tanks Market is segmented by Application Type (Transportation {Cars, Light-duty Vehicles, Buses, and Truck} and Gas Carrier & Storage), Vessel Type (Type-I Vessel, Type-II Vessel, Type-III Vessel, and Type-IV Vessel), and Region (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Rest of the World).
The CNG Tanks Market is segmented by Application Type...
The CNG Tanks Market was estimated at USD 2.2 billionin 2020 and is likely to grow at a CAGR of 5.8% during 2021-2026 to reach USD 3.5 billion in 2026.
Compressed natural gas is becoming a viable choice for the automotive industry due to rising gasoline and diesel fuel prices and rising environmental concerns. Both tanks, metal as well as composite, are used in CNG vehicles with a huge dominance of metal ones, especially in Asia-Pacific and Europe, the two major markets for CNG tanks.
Composite tanks are lighter than their conventional equivalents (metal CNG tanks), resulting in weight savings, increased fuel storage capability, and improved vehicle fuel economy. The demand for natural gas-powered vehicles is burgeoning worldwide.
