Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 123.2 Billion by 2027, exhibiting a CAGR of 9.4% during 2022-2027. Keeping in mind the uncertainties of COVID-19, we are continuously tracking and evaluating the direct as well as the indirect influence of the pandemic on different end use sectors. These insights are included in the report as a major market contributor. 

A microturbine is a small combustion turbine that runs on liquid or gaseous fuels to power an electric generator. It uses natural gas, waste heat from thermal plants and petroleum fuels, such as kerosene, diesel and heating oil. It is primarily used for small-scale power generation and consists of a compressor, combustor, alternator, turbine, generator and a recuperator. It operates by recovering exhaust energy and preheating the compressed inlet air to enhance the electrical efficiency of the generator. In comparison to traditionally used alternatives, microturbines are compact, lightweight, cost-effective and have minimal moving parts, emissions and fuel wastage. Owing to these benefits, they find extensive applications in provide standby power, combined cooling, heating and power (CCHP), combined heat and power (CHP), resource recovery, and microgrid systems.

The rapidly increasing energy demand across the globe is among the key factors driving the growth of the market. Furthermore, there is an increasing focus on green and sustainable power generation, which is also providing a boost to the market growth as microturbines offer stable and reliable power with minimal emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs), such as carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO), sulfur oxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxide (NO2). Additionally, widespread adoption of CHP systems across various industries is also contributing to the market growth. They are extensively used in wastewater treatment plants, breweries, paper and rubber mills and the residential sector for providing residual heat in cold climates. Furthermore, the replacement of phased-out coal and nuclear plants with modern and innovative power stations and installation of microturbines in off-grid systems in remote areas, are creating a positive outlook for the market. Other factors, including rising investments in the energy sector and extensive research and development (R&D), are projected to drive the market further.
