We have also covered information for industry leaders as well as for follower in the company profile chapter, key developments, and competition landscape, and others. The impact of COVID-19 is also covered in the scope of this report.
All market values are in U.S. dollar ($) millions and all are calculated as nominal value; 2020 is considered as the base year and 2021 as the projected year, with values forecasted from 2022 to 2026. The market values are forecasted based on projected growth in various industries.
This updated report includes the impact of COVID-19 on the consumption of alternative fuels for commercial vehicles. Although there is lack of data pertaining to consumption of alternative fuels for commercial vehicles in 2020, the passenger car segment was the hard hit compared to commercial vehicles. Furthermore, the prices of conventional fuels went high during the pandemic period, which indirectly pushed the sales of alternatively powered vehicles as well as consumption of alternative fuels.
