Thermal power plants create steam to drive turbines that generate electricity. They convert heat from the combustion of coal, natural gas, fuel oil, or biomass to produce steam. There are three main types of thermal power plants - coal fired, natural gas fired, and oil fired power plants. Coal fired plants dominate the thermal power plants market owing to the abundance and low cost of coal. However, natural gas fired plants have gained popularity in recent years due to stringent emission norms as natural gas is cleaner than coal. The growing demand for electricity and the government's push towards greater electrification has driven the thermal power plant market growth globally. However, renewables are emerging as alternatives that can hamper the growth of this market going forward.

Market Dynamics:

The global thermal power plant market is driven by factors such as increasing electricity demand, rapid industrialization and urbanization in developing nations, and growing investments in capacity addition. However, stringent environmental regulations on particulate matter and carbon emissions pose a challenge to coal fired plants. Greater focus on renewables for power generation also affects the growth prospects of this industry. Opportunities lie in expanding natural gas based capacity given its relatively lower carbon footprint. Countries are also investing in newer clean coal technologies to reduce emissions from coal plants. Adoption of carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) presents new prospects in making thermal generation more environment friendly.
