According to The Insight Partners' research, the North America gas engine market was valued at US$ 1,134.92 million in 2024 and is expected to reach US$ 1,785.15 million by 2031, registering a CAGR of 6.8% from 2025 to 2031. Increasing focus on the development of efficient fuel engines and rising production of natural gas are among the critical factors attributed to drive the North America gas engine market.
Several governments are imposing regulations to control the emissions of diesel and petrol engines, compelling engine manufacturers to opt for alternative fuel solutions such as natural gas. Gas engines release less emissions to generate a sufficient amount of power. The emission monitoring and regulatory bodies are imposing stringent regulations on using diesel engines and generators. Various industries are deploying gas engines and generators for power generation to meet these regulatory standards.
In 2023, the Hamriyah Independent Power Plant in the UAE began operations with GE's 9HA.01 turbines, making it the most efficient gas-fired power plant in the region. Mitsubishi Power deployed hydrogen-ready gas turbines for various projects in Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and Morocco (at Al Wahda), facilitating future transitions to 100% hydrogen fuel. Also, in Qatar, GE upgraded the turbines at a major power station in 2022, which resulted in a reduction of CO2 emissions by 67,000 tonnes annually. Additionally, in 2019, Wärtsilä expanded the Borg El Arab plant in Egypt by adding two 34SG gas engines, increasing its capacity by 19 MW. Thus, the rise in such development of efficient fuel engines owing to stringent regulations related to gas engines is propelling the market growth.
On the contrary, the escalating popularity of renewable energy alternatives and technological drawbacks in several countries hamper the growth of North America gas engine market.
