Global coal-fired power generation market overview
The availability of coal at low prices is one of the key factors expected to drive the coal-fired power generation market in the upcoming years. Coal is one of the most economical raw material for generating electricity in both advanced and emerging economies. For instance, 30% of the electricity production in the US was carried out using coal during 2017. Similarly, the new pricing policy from Coal India introduced in January 2018 aims at selling coal depending on the total energy content within each consignment. As a result, lowering prices of coal are likely to boost the coal-fired power generation market.
Furthermore, the development of clean coal technologies will gain traction in the market owing to the growing environmental concerns among consumers. Several innovative approaches including integrated gasification of fuel cells, direct coal fuel cells and supercritical carbon dioxide are being explored to reduce the environmental impact. These technologies will help to reduce carbon emissions and fuel costs. This fact encourages the coal-fired power generation plants to increase their focus on adopting clean coal technologies. Consequently, the availability of coal at low prices coupled with the development of clean coal technologies will drive the market to grow at a CAGR of over 1% during the forecast period.
