Global Circulating Fluidized Bed Boilers Market is valued approximately at USD 533.16 million in 2022 and is anticipated to grow with a growth rate of more than 8.8% over the forecast period 2023-2030. The circulating fluidized bed (CFB) process enables boilers and power plants to achieve maximum flexibility when it comes to burning a wide range of fuels. CFB boilers are specifically designed to create high gas velocity within the furnace. They have the capability to effectively combust various fuel compounds, including bituminous coal, brown coal, wood biomass, and other types of fuels. They also offer superior combustion efficiency compared to BFB boilers. Furthermore, CFB boilers have minimal environmental impact, particularly in terms of reducing the production of thermal nitrogen oxides (NOx). Regular boilers operate at combustion temperatures of 1,400–1,500°C, whereas CFB boilers operate at temperatures ranging from 800–900°C, effectively lowering the production of thermal nitrogen oxides. These factors are driving the demand for circulating fluidized bed boilers, leading to the growth of the global market.
Moreover, the growing energy generation sector has been a significant factor in supporting the growth of the Circulating Fluidized Bed (CFB) Boilers market. As global energy demand continues to rise, there is a need for efficient and reliable power generation solutions. CFB boilers have gained popularity in the energy sector due to their ability to burn a wide range of fuels and generate electricity efficiently. This increased demand for power has led to the installation of more CFB boilers worldwide. According to Statista, global electricity generation has witnessed significant growth, increasing from 26,677 terawatt-hours in 2018 to nearly 28,500 terawatt-hours in 2021. Furthermore, in the year 2022, there was a notable surge in annual global investment of approximately 31 percent in clean energy sources and technology specifically relevant to the energy transition. Moreover, the global investment in the low-carbon energy transition reached an unprecedented milestone in 2022, totaling USD 1.11 trillion, setting a new record high. Additionally, surging energy demand and rise in demand for clean fuel technology provides lucrative market growth opportunities. However, the high maintenance cost of circulating fluidized bed boilers stifles market growth throughout the forecast period of 2023-2030.
The key regions considered for the Global Circulating Fluidized Bed Boilers Market study includes Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. North America dominated the market in 2022 with largest market share owing to increasing awareness about the impact of emissions and the industry’s focus on adopting low-carbon technologies. There is a rising awareness of the need to control gas emissions and improve operational efficiency, contributing to the market growth. Asia Pacific is expected to grow at fastest growth rate during the forecast period, owing to increasing need for clean energy and uninterrupted electricity supply in China and India is leading to a higher installation of circulating fluidized bed boilers for power generation. Furthermore, ongoing R&D activities further fuel the circulating fluidized bed boilers market.
