The diesel generator, a combination of diesel engine with electrical generator, is a reliable power supply device. It is used for generating electricity to provide continuous power supply during power interruptions. It is mostly used as a standby device during power outages or at places with no connection to a power grid. Diesel generators are widely used across different industries such as utilities, oil & gas, marine, mining, healthcare, and telecom among others. They provide continuous power supply during power outages as well as at locations where grid infrastructure is not available. Factors driving the diesel generators market include increasing need for uninterrupted & reliable power supply and increasing number of power outages.
The diesel generators market is expected to grow from an estimated USD 13.06 Billion in 2015 to USD 16.96 Billion by 2020, at a CAGR of 5.4% from 2015 to 2020.
Asia-Pacific is estimated to be the global leader in the diesel generator market
In this report, the diesel generators market has been analysed with respect to five regions, namely, North America, South America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Middle East & Africa. Asia-Pacific is the leading market owing to chronic power outages and need for continuous power by the growing industrial and commercial sectors. Poor grid infrastructure and rising power demand in countries such as India and China are driving the diesel generators market in the region. The Middle East & Africa market is expected to grow at the second highest CAGR during the forecast period. The European and North American markets are expected to have slow growth rates during the forecast period due to economic slowdown. Rising demand for power unmet by existing grid infrastructure in Asia-Pacific results in frequent power outages. As a result, growing industrialization and frequent power outages are driving the demand for diesel generators in this region. The diesel generators market in India is expected to grow at the highest CAGR, owing to growing IT, datacentre, telecom, and ongoing infrastructure development programs in the country.
