Market Overview:
The global hard coal market is expected to grow from USD XX million in 2018 to USD XX million by 2030, at a CAGR of X.X%. The growth of the global hard coal market can be attributed to the increasing demand for energy and steel across the globe. Hard coal is a high-quality fuel used for power generation and steel production. It is also used in other industries such as cement and chemical industries. The lump anthracite segment is expected to hold the largest share of the global hard coal market during the forecast period. The growth of this segment can be attributed to its high calorific value and low ash content as compared to other types of coals. Asia Pacific is expected to dominate the global hard coal market during the forecast period owing to rising demand for energy and steel from countries such as China, India, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan.
Product Definition:
A type of coal, bituminous coal, that has a higher heat content and carbon content than lignite or subbituminous coal and is used to generate electricity and produce coke.
Lump Anthracite:
lump anthracite is a type of coal that contains high moisture content. It has a lower calorific value (Btu/lb) than bituminous and sub-bituminous coals, however, it has higher carbon content (by volume) than either of these two. This makes it an ideal fuel for use in steel manufacturing plants as the iron ore required can be derived from this form of coal without the need to convert it to bitumen or crude oil first.
Anthracite Fines:
Anthracite is a type of hard coal that was first developed as a distinct variety of coal in the early 17th century. It has since been widely used as a source for coke or steel production owing to its high carbon content (as high as 35%), low moisture, and easy transportation properties.
Application Insights:
The energy industry segment dominated the global hard coal market in 2017, accounting for a share of over 50.0% by revenue. The growth can be attributed to increasing use of hard coal in power generation plants across the globe coupled with stringent regulations regarding reduction in greenhouse emissions from power plants.
The cement industry also accounted for a significant share owing to its usage as an ingredient for manufacturing various products including portland cement and super-portland cement which are used globally in construction activities. Increasing urbanization along with rising demand from developing economies such as India and China is expected to propel the product consumption over the forecast period driving overall demand growth globally.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region has a large number of coal-based power plants, which are projected to drive demand for the product. China is estimated to be one of the largest consumers owing to rapid industrialization and increasing energy consumption.
North America emerged as a major consumer due to growing steel production in Mexico, coupled with stringent environmental regulations by regulatory bodies such as Environment Canada and U.S Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). In addition, rising shale gas exploration activities are anticipated to augment market growth over the coming years.
Europe accounted for 24% of total revenue share in 2017 on account of high demand from countries including Russia, Turkey and Germany that have extensive mining operations across Europe resulting into high availability Anthracite at competitive prices compared with other sources such as Powder River Basin (PRB) coal or offshore Coal Bed Methane (CBM).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from the steel and cement industries
- Growing use of hard coal in power generation
- Stringent environmental regulations for coal-fired power plants
- Price competitiveness of hard coal compared to other fuels such as natural gas and oil
- Availability of large reserves of high-quality hard coal
