Summary

Coal-fired power generation is a thermal power station plant that burns coal to generate electricity. Gasification, pulverized coal firing, coal cyclone furnace, and fluidized bed combustion are some of the technologies used in the generation of power. Coal is a a major source of power generation plants.

The global coal fired generation market was estimated to account for 2,057.6 Giga Watts in terms of volume by the end of 2019.

Drivers:

Easy availability of raw materials across the Asia Pacific region is primarily fueling the market growth of the coal-fired power generation. Coal is a major source of power generation and Coal-fired power generation. China, India, Indonesia, and Australia are the major producers of coal. Thus, the ready availability of the coal in Asia Pacific region is fueling the market growth of the coal fired power generation.

Rising demand for electricity is expected to augment the market growth of coal-fired power generation. This is attributed to the increasing population which is creating demand for the residential sector. Rapid industrialization and urbanization along with the need for the energy in heavy industries is again expected to propel the market growth of the coal fire power generation. Thus, the growing demand for electricity is projected to propel the market growth.
