Regional Analysis

North America: Deployment of technology and off-grid energy drives U.S. microturbine dominance

The North American microturbine market, with the U.S. as its leader, is rapidly developing due to the large number of microturbines being used in oil & gas fields, remote areas of industry, and distributed energy systems. In 2024, Capstone Green Energy was able to expand installations throughout California oilfields to drive efficiencies and lower emissions across a large number of sites. The U.S. also benefits from an aging grid, which leads to demand for reliable, off-grid power from microturbines. The push to combine renewables with the microturbine market - primarily for grid balancing and backup generation, particularly in states growing in their wind and solar capacities - continues to make microturbines an attractive choice.

Europe: U.K. pushes rapid growth of microturbine markets due to green innovation and adoption of CHP

The microturbine market in Europe is advancing rapidly, with the United Kingdom rapidly decarbonizing its power infrastructure as its leader. In the U.K., Combined Heat and Power (CHP) systems, including the use of microturbines serving as the centerpiece of installations in hospitals and public infrastructure, significantly increased in 2024. Research into hydrogen microturbines was growing in popularity, including initial pilot projects in the E.U. to serve net-zero energy outputs, funded by the helm. Several E.U. regulatory enhancements related to emissions, energy efficiency, and demand for electrification for urban environments are all converging to make microturbines key to driving the E.U. towards a clean energy future.
