Press Release

China LNG Market is expected to grow at a CAGR 5.74% Through 2029

China LNG Market is expected to grow owing to Increased LNG Bunkering and Transportation, Carbon Neutrality Initiatives, and Energy Transition & Environmental Concerns throughout the forecast period.


According to TechSci Research report, “China LNG Market – By Region, Competition, Forecast and Opportunities, 2019-2029F”, China LNG Market was valued at USD 9.53 billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach USD 13.44 billion in 2029 with a CAGR of 5.74% through the forecast period. China's domestic natural gas production is unable to meet its growing demand. China has become one of the world's largest importers of LNG, necessitating the development of a robust infrastructure to receive, store, and distribute LNG. This dependency on LNG imports serves as a significant driver for the market's growth. To meet the increasing demand for LNG, China has been actively expanding its LNG receiving terminals and storage facilities along its coastline. The construction of new terminals and the expansion of existing ones enable China to receive LNG shipments from various international suppliers. This diversification of LNG sources enhances China's energy security and strengthens its bargaining position in the global LNG market.

China's "Belt and Road Initiative" further promotes international cooperation in LNG infrastructure development, as it includes agreements with countries that are rich in natural gas resources. These partnerships facilitate the construction of pipelines, transport facilities, and LNG production projects, increasing the availability of LNG in China. The China LNG market is being driven by the nation's commitment to energy transition and environmental sustainability, the increasing use of LNG in various industrial and residential applications, and the growth of LNG imports and infrastructure development. These drivers are interlinked and are expected to continue to propel the expansion of the LNG market in China in the coming years.

Based on end user, the Industrial segment dominated the market in 2023. The industrial segment is projected to dominate the China LNG market in 2023, driven by several key factors that underscore its critical role in the country's energy landscape. China’s industrial sector, being the backbone of its economy, consumes a substantial amount of energy. With the government’s strong push towards cleaner energy sources to curb pollution and meet international environmental commitments, LNG has emerged as a preferred alternative to coal and oil. Industries such as manufacturing, chemicals, and heavy machinery are increasingly adopting LNG due to its efficiency and lower emissions.

The transition to LNG is supported by extensive investments in infrastructure. The Chinese government and private sector have significantly invested in expanding LNG import terminals, storage facilities, and distribution networks, particularly in industrial hubs. This infrastructure development ensures a reliable and consistent supply of LNG, addressing concerns about energy security and stability, which are paramount for industrial operations. Another factor contributing to the dominance of the industrial segment is the economic benefits associated with LNG usage. LNG offers cost advantages over traditional fossil fuels, especially as domestic production scales up and international prices stabilize. This cost-effectiveness is particularly appealing to energy-intensive industries that seek to reduce operational expenses and enhance competitiveness in the global market.

The industrial sector’s preference for LNG is also driven by technological advancements and innovation. New technologies in LNG processing and utilization have made it more accessible and feasible for diverse industrial applications. Companies are investing in LNG-powered machinery and equipment, further integrating this cleaner energy source into their production processes. Government policies and incentives play a pivotal role in this transition. China’s stringent environmental regulations and targets for reducing carbon emissions have accelerated the shift towards LNG. Incentives such as tax breaks, subsidies for LNG infrastructure, and research and development grants for cleaner technologies are encouraging industries to adopt LNG more rapidly.

The geographic and logistical advantages of LNG contribute to its industrial dominance. LNG’s ability to be transported over long distances without significant losses makes it suitable for China’s vast and varied industrial landscape. This flexibility ensures that even remote industrial areas can access a stable energy supply, fostering regional industrial growth. In summary, the industrial segment's projected dominance in the China LNG market in 2023 is a result of the combined effects of economic, environmental, technological, and policy factors. As industries prioritize efficiency, cost savings, and compliance with environmental standards, LNG stands out as the optimal energy solution, driving its widespread adoption and cementing its role in China’s industrial future.
