Methanol Market By Type, By Feedstock, By Application, By Industry Vertical, And Segment Forecasts, 2016-2027

Increasing consumption of methanol from various end use industries such as automotive, construction, electronics, paints & coatings, and others owing to its properties is a key factor driving market revenue growth.

Market Size - USD 20.36 Billion in 2020, Market Growth - CAGR of 5.2%, Market Trends - Rising acceptance and adoption of the Methanol-To-Olefins (MTO) process.

The global methanol market size is expected to reach USD 30.74 Billion in 2028, and register a CAGR of 5.2% during the forecast period. Methanol finds application as an affordable substitute for transportation fuels. The advantages offered by methanol comprises lower cost of production as it is cheap to produce in comparison to other alternative fuels, enhanced safety as it has a lower risk of inflammability relative to gasoline, and it can be produced from a variety of carbon-based feedstock, including coal and natural gas. This is one of the major factors expected to drive revenue growth of the global methanol market.
