According to a research report published by Spherical Insights & Consulting, the Europe Gas Generator Market size is anticipated to reach USD 1093.2 million by 2035, growing at a CAGR of 6.1% from 2025 to 2035. The market is driven by the growing need for hydrogen gas as an alternative to helium, the growing significance of analytical techniques in drug and food approval processes, and rising R&D spending in target industries.

Market Overview

A gas generator is equipment that generates power by transforming the chemical energy obtained from gaseous fuel. The increasing acceptance of gas generators across all major end-users is contributing immensely to the growth of the gas generators market. Gas generators are used for the purpose of producing specific gases that are required for research, analysis, or experimental purposes. In various industrial processes, they are an integral part of generating fuel gases like producer gas from coal, which is sometimes needed for powering different operations.

A new pure hydrogen fuel cell generator was announced by Panasonic Corporation in April 2024 through its Electric Works Company division. It will be powering Europe, Australia, and China in October 2024, via a chemical reaction between high-purity hydrogen and oxygen in the air. A powerful smart generator supporting propane as a fuel source besides standard gas was released by EcoFlow, which termed it a smart generator.

The German government and the European Commission have come to an agreement on the initial conditions for the state to financially support the creation of new gas-powered plants. Germany is still planning to add more wind and solar power capacity while gradually eliminating coal, and thus will have to rely on the development of backup capacity that will be ready for use at any moment.
