MARKET TRENDS

Massive Population Growth Continues To Increase The Demand For Power

According to the United Nation's report released in July 2019, the world’s population is projected to increase by 2 billion in the next 30 years, from 7.7 billion currently to 9.7 billion in 2050. Over 90% of the population growth will come from developing countries which typically have low electrification rate. The considerable population growth will inevitably increase the power shortfall, which ultimately provides healthy growth for the industry.

Aging Grid Infrastructure Anticipated to Bode the Growth of the Market

Aging grid infrastructure in both developed and emerging economies and the retirement of technologies that are no longer favorable such as coal will see a rise in the construction of newer power plants. Moreover, growing investment in grid connectivity in developing countries set to drive the diesel generator market.

MARKET DRIVERS

Stellar Growth in Oil & Gas as well as Minerals & Mining Industry

The consumption of hydrocarbons has been rising continuously owing to enormous progress in transportation, space & aviation, and sea-borne trade. Most of the industry verticals rely on fossil fuels to produce consumer goods. The growing demand for electronic products, automobile, and renewable energy system set to accrue the requisition for metals which drive the mining industry. Following this trend, the global DG set likely to gain substantial growth in the upcoming years.

Exponential Construction Activities in Emerging Economies

Urbanization is the key factor for the growth of the construction activities in developing countries. Some of the emerging economies, such as India and China, where more people are moving to metro cities which consequently increases the demand for houses. Moreover, the Indian government's ambitious project, “Housing for All by 2022,” projected to bode the construction sector. On the other side, investment in electrification projects, road infrastructure, metro and railway network expansion might offer a sufficient market size.

MARKET RESTRAINT

Paradigm Shift Towards Adoption of Renewable Energy System to Mitigate Rising Greenhouse Emissions (GHGs)

The tremendous economic development comes at the cost of environmental degradation. Rising GHG emissions adversely affect the atmosphere increasing the earth’s temperature. Many countries are amending strict rules and regulations in a bid to curb harmful pollutants released from the combustion of fossils fuels. Besides, the rising adoption of a clean energy system to meet growing energy demand set the market on the back foot.

High Power Application Expected To Auger Above 750kVA Segment

Based on power rating, the market is divided into Below 75kVA, 75-375kVA, 375-750kVA, and Above 750kVA. Among these, above 750kVA accounts for a substantial share of the market owing to high power demand in mining, oil & gas, and construction, among others. However, Below 75kVA and 75-375kVA exhibit healthy growth in the forecasted period due to the increasing demand for diesel generators in residential and commercial sectors.

By Portability Analysis

Stationary Genset to Account Substantial Market Size

The global diesel generator market based on portability is classified into stationary and portable. Stationary power is dominating the diesel genset market. The growth is attributed to continuous power demand from mine and oil & gas companies for exploration activities. Also, the extensive construction activities in emerging economies set to fuel the diesel genset market. On the other hand, portable genset is mostly used for emergency power applications such as in residential and commercial sectors.

By Application Analysis

Rising Demand for Uninterrupted Power Supply Auger the Continuous Load

The deficient power supply in remote locations due to poor grid infrastructure set to drive the diesel genset industry. In addition, growing minerals & mining as well as oil & gas exploration likely to auger the industry oulook. Several entities operating in these sectors opt for an alternative like diesel generator to meet their high power demand. Thus, the growing investment in recovering fossils fuels, metals, and minerals inflating the continuous load market size.

By End-User Analysis

Oil & Gas Is Projected to Lead the Industry Size  

Energy is quintessential for the economic progress of the world. Oil & gas is largely used in several industry verticals as well as electricity generation. The expansion of automotive, space & aviation and manufacturing plants increased the fuel consumption of oil & gas. Operators are mainly investing in exploration activities to meet growing demand which expected to offer a lucrative market for the growth of the diesel generator. Simultaneously, growing demand for minerals and metals, rising seaborne trade, and expansion of pharma companies likely to drive the global diesel generator industry demand.

REGIONAL ANALYSIS
