Italy Small Scale LNG Market Synopsis

As per the analysis by Market Research Future Reports (MRFR), the Italy Small Scale LNG market is estimated to expand at a CAGR of 13.27% during the forecast period. The small-scale LNG market is estimated to have several developments during the forecast period.

Lately, the Italy Small Scale LNG projects have increased the demand for LNG and emerging markets as net exporters and importers. The market is expected to expand due to liquefaction providers providing plug-and-play concepts with a lessened operating cost, price tag, and deployment time. Besides, expansion initiatives taken by well-established and multinationals are also likely to boom the market. The increasing global demand for sustainable fuel sources is propelling market growth.

The energy industry is facing restrictions due to the implementation of stringent rules against climate change, growing concern to avail cleaner and sustainable sources of energy, which restricts the market. The source faces storage issues since the volume of natural gas is high. For solution, natural gas is converted to liquid form at liquefaction terminals for ease of transportation. In the last stage, the liquefied gas is again converted to gas at regasification terminals. The number of liquefaction & regasification terminals is growing due to the surging demand for fuel energy. However, the outbreak of COVID-19 is anticipated to hinder the sales and bring a downfall to the market.
