Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) Market Size Worth USD 525.26 Billion by 2034 | CAGR: 11.70%


The Compressed natural gas (CNG) market size is expected to reach USD 525.26 billion by 2034, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report “CNG Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report; By Source (Refinery, Associated Gas, Non-Associated), By Application (Light Duty Vehicles, Medium/Heavy Duty Trucks), By Region; Market Forecast, 2025–2034” gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.

Compressed natural gas (CNG) is a clean-burning alternative fuel made by compressing natural gas to less than 1% of its volume at standard atmospheric pressure. Primarily composed of methane, CNG is stored in high-pressure cylinders and used as a fuel for automotive vehicles, including passenger cars, buses, and trucks. It is considered an environmentally friendly option compared to conventional fuels such as gasoline and diesel, as it emits significantly lower levels of harmful pollutants such as carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, and particulate matter. Additionally, CNG combustion produces fewer greenhouse gases, contributing to reduced carbon footprints.

CNG is widely used in transportation due to its cost-effectiveness, efficiency, and safety. Many countries promote CNG vehicles to reduce air pollution and dependence on petroleum-based fuels. The fuel is also used in industrial applications, power generation, and household cooking in some regions. CNG-powered vehicles require specially designed engines or retrofitted kits, and refueling is done at dedicated CNG stations.
