Marine gensets market share from the MDO fuel segment accounted for USD 4 billion in 2022, stimulated by the widespread use of these systems in high- and medium-speed marine engines with sulfur concentrations between 0.3% and 2.0% m/m. With its lower pricing, reduced pollution output, improved thermal, and oxidative stability, diesel oil has significantly risen in use in the marine industry.
Marine gensets market share from the 1,000 kW – 5000 kW power rating segment is expected to surpass USD 3 billion by 2032. Recreational boats are gaining high demand owing to the expanding maritime tourism sector, which will encourage the installation of these marine generator sets. The need for gensets will be further fueled by the rising demand for tugboats, submarines, and yachts, particularly in emerging countries.
Marine gensets market share from the merchant application segment will exceed USD 4 billion by 2032. The need for marine commercial boats will be boosted by the expansion of seaborne trade, particularly between developing nations, and the high growth of shipbuilding activity. The potential of the sector will increase due to demographic changes in global urbanization and growth in cross-border transportation. The surge in seaborne transportation will also rise on account of increasing imports and exports across the globe.
Asia Pacific marine gensets market size will cross USD 5 billion by 2032, owing to an upbeat outlook for the shipping sector as well as expanding seaborne trade. Product development will be further fueled by the gradual move toward the adoption of sustainable systems with a goal of reducing airborne emissions. The construction of navy ships, freighters, and tugboats will result in a solid order book, which will increase demand for cutting-edge equipment. In 2022, China started expanding its massive shipyard, Jiangnan shipyard, as it is important for the Chinese Navy. The yard will build cruisers, aircraft carriers, submarines, and destroyers.
