The study involves two major activities in estimating the current size of the CNG tanks market. Exhaustive secondary research was done to collect information on the market, the peer market, and the parent market. The next step was to validate these findings, assumptions, and sizing with industry experts across the value chain through primary research. Both the top-down and bottom-up approaches were employed to estimate the total market size. After that, market breakdown and data triangulation procedures were used to determine the extent of market segments and sub-segments.
Secondary Research
Secondary sources referred to for this research study include financial statements of companies offering CNG tanks and information from various trade, business, and professional associations. Secondary research has been used to obtain critical information about the industry’s value chain, the total pool of key players, market classification, and segmentation according to industry trends to the bottom-most level and regional markets. The secondary data was collected and analyzed to arrive at the overall size of the CNG tanks market, which was validated by primary respondents.
Primary Research
Extensive primary research was conducted after obtaining information regarding the CNG tanks market scenario through secondary research. Several primary interviews were conducted with market experts from both the demand and supply sides across major countries of North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America. Primary data was collected through questionnaires, emails, and telephonic interviews. The primary sources from the supply side included various industry experts, such as Chief X Officers (CXOs), Vice Presidents (VPs), Directors from business development, marketing, product development/innovation teams, and related key executives from composites industry vendors; system integrators; component providers; distributors; and key opinion leaders. Primary interviews were conducted to gather insights such as market statistics, data on revenue collected from the products and services, market breakdowns, market size estimations, market forecasting, and data triangulation. Primary research also helped in understanding the various trends related to technology, application, vertical, and region. Stakeholders from the demand side, such as CIOs, CTOs, CSOs, and installation teams of the customer/end users who are using the composites, were interviewed to understand the buyer’s perspective on the suppliers, products, component providers, and their current usage of composites and future outlook of their business which will affect the overall market.

Market Definition
CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) tanks are the cylindrical tanks used to store compressed natural gas at high pressure for use in various applications. These tanks are used as fuel tanks in CNG powered vehicles, providing a efficient means to store CNG as to use it as a fuel. There are 4 different type of cylinders considered during the market study namely Type 1, Type 2, Type 3 and Type 4. Each type offers different benefits in terms of weight, durability, and cost. Type 1 tanks are made up of metal and are the heaviest tanks available and type 4 are made up of composites making them the lightest among all.
