Process Plants Gas Turbine Market Report 2026

The process plants gas turbine market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2.36 billion in 2025 to $2.52 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.5%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to expansion of industrial process plants, growth in captive power generation, increasing use of gas-based power systems, availability of heavy-duty turbine technology, rising demand for reliable on-site power.

The process plants gas turbine market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $3.28 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing adoption of low-emission turbine technologies, rising investments in industrial energy efficiency, expansion of hybrid power generation systems, growing use of digital predictive maintenance, increasing focus on fuel flexibility. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing deployment of high-efficiency combined cycle turbines, growing adoption of digital turbine monitoring systems, rising demand for flexible fuel gas turbines, expansion of modular gas turbine installations, enhanced focus on operational reliability.

The growing infrastructure development is expected to support the growth of the process plants gas turbine market going forward. Infrastructure development refers to the construction and improvement of essential physical facilities and systems that enable industrial operations and economic activities. The increase in infrastructure development is influenced by federal policy initiatives and favorable financing conditions, as lower interest rates reduce project financing costs and encourage both public and private sector investments in construction projects. The expansion of infrastructure projects increases the demand for gas turbines, as these systems are vital for providing reliable power generation and mechanical drive applications in newly established process plants and industrial facilities. For instance, in June 2025, according to the United States Energy Information Administration, a federal agency, developers plan to add 18.7 gigawatts of combined-cycle capacity to the grid by 2028, with 4.3 gigawatts already under construction. Therefore, the growing infrastructure development is supporting the growth of the process plants gas turbine market.

Key players in the process plants gas turbine market are prioritizing the development of advanced technologies, such as domestic gas turbines with digital integration, to enhance efficiency, minimize emissions, and improve operational reliability. Domestic gas turbines with digital integration refer to locally manufactured turbines embedded with intelligent monitoring and control systems that optimize performance, maintenance, and energy output. For example, in October 2024, Technopromexport, a subsidiary of Rostec, a Russia-based power infrastructure enterprise, commissioned the third generating unit at the Udarnaya thermal power plant in Krasnodar Krai, featuring the GTD-110M turbine. The unit achieved a peak power output of 115 MW and successfully completed extensive testing, including 72 hours of continuous full-load operation, confirming its reliability and seamless integration into Russia’s Unified Energy System. The domestic turbine’s design prioritizes high fuel efficiency, reduced weight, and compact dimensions compared to imported alternatives, while leveraging advanced digital technologies such as additive manufacturing for key components like swirlers within the low-emission combustion chamber.

In March 2025, GE Vernova Inc., a US-based electric services company, acquired Woodward Inc. for an undisclosed amount. Through this acquisition, GE Vernova Inc. aims to enhance its domestic gas turbine manufacturing capabilities, expand its supply chain network, and address the increasing global demand for reliable energy solutions. Woodward Inc. is a US-based company that provides advanced control solutions for gas turbines used in power generation, oil, and gas applications.
