Gas Valve Market Size

The gas valve market was valued at USD 7.6 billion in 2025. The market is expected to grow from USD 8 billion in 2026 to USD 13.6 billion in 2035, at a CAGR of 6.1%, according to latest report published by Global Market Insights Inc.

The global emphasis on energy conservation is driving the adoption of energy-efficient gas valves, there has been an increase in the number of energy-efficient gas valves being manufactured. In fact, this increase in production of energy-efficient gas valves is partly due to the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) estimate that various energy efficiency programs will save at least five quadrillion British Thermal Units (BTUs) of energy in 2023. Companies like Honeywell, are creating very high-tech gas valves that provide users with a greater ability to optimize their use of energy.
 

Today manufacturers are also developing gas valves that are compatible with renewable energy sources that generate and employ biogas & hydrogen. The International Energy Agency (IEA) has stated that the global production of hydrogen increased by 8% from 2022 to 2023. Emerson has designed products specifically for the safe and effective management of all types of renewable gases, which will accelerate the transition to cleaner energy sources. The demand for "intelligent gas valves," which incorporate IoT technology to provide greater safety and operational efficiency through the application of automation, is expected to continue to grow.
 

 The U.S. government allocated USD 500 million for "smart cities" in 2023, and part of that investment will be in regard to smart infrastructures associated with gas systems. In response, Siemens has developed smart valves with predictive maintenance capabilities and remote monitoring systems. With both the LNG and petrochemical sectors continuing to grow at a rapid pace, demand continues to increase for advanced gas valves. The US Energy Information Administration reported that LNG exports have increased 14% from 2022 to 2023. The necessary types of products for both LNG terminals and petrochemical plants have been created by Flowserve.
 

In response to stricter environmental regulations imposed by governments worldwide, more businesses are now looking for gas valves that meet these environmental requirements. In particular, the European Union has set a goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 55 percent by 2030 with its green deal. In addition, Parker Hannifin is designing green gas valves, which will allow companies to comply with the regulations while still providing maximum operational efficiency.
