Diesel Gensets Market Size

Diesel Gensets Market was valued at USD 33.4 billion in 2023 and is projected to expand at more than 7.4% CAGR from 2024 to 2032. Rapid digitalization across several industries will foster the industry growth.
 

Rising income and urbanization have boosted the demand for commercial and residential buildings, propelling the global construction sector. However, insufficient power supply has led to the widespread deployment of diesel gensets systems as a backup or primary source of power. Moreover, massive government-supported plans across different economies for the development of smart cities and infrastructural upgrade is set to boost the market revenue during the forecast period. For instance, the Indian government established Smart City Mission in 2015 with the goal of constructing 100 Smart Cities by the end of 2023.
 

Diesel Generator Market

High initial and maintenance costs may hinder industry expansion

Diesel gensets are one of the most popular backup power systems implemented globally although DG sets have significant running costs, as well as complex and expensive maintenance. Since diesel is an imported fuel that is vulnerable to fluctuating fuel prices in numerous nations, industry progression is impeded by the volatility in its costs. To get around this limitation, manufacturers are creating more fuel-efficient and reasonably priced diesel gensets that can perform better while using less fuel.
 

Diesel Gensets Market Analysis

Diesel generator market from the ≤ 50 kVA power rating segment is predicted to observe nearly 7% growth rate through 2032. The ongoing work-from-home trend has stimulated the demand for economical, small, and uninterrupted power supply options, resulting in the growing adoption of lower-capacity diesel gensets for residential uses. According to the 2021 American Community Survey 1-year estimates released by the U.S. Census Bureau, the number of Americans primarily working from home quadrupled between 2019 and 2021, from 5.7% (approximately 9 million) to 17.9% (27.6 million).
 

Diesel Gensets Market Share By Application

Diesel gensets market value from the peak shaving application segment is slated to surpass USD 11 billion by 2032. The growing inclination of organizations towards energy-saving strategies to lower costs by reducing energy usage is anticipated to increase the adoption of diesel gensets for peak shaving applications. Furthermore, several consulting organizations are providing strategic support and plans for convenient employment of peak shaving methods, which is speculated to impel segment growth.
 

Residential segment held around 25% of the revenue share in 2022. The business landscape is expected to benefit from the widespread installation of diesel gensets at household units to supply emergency power during blackouts. Additionally, most residential units in developing nations, including China and India, are switching to diesel gensets on account of frequent power shortages that have slowed down business operations and left several housing units without electricity.
 

Diesel Gensets Market Size By Region

Asia Pacific diesel gensets market size is poised to record over 7% gains between 2023 and 2032 owing to the rapid development of commercial and recreational complexes resulting from rising industrialization and the booming tourism sector. For instance, at the Formula 1 Singapore Grand Prix 2022 (SGP), PS Energy Group provided fuel for generators that powered the lighting system for the race circuit, the Padang stage, a few hospitality suites, activity booths, and food & beverage stalls and equipment.

Impact of COVID-19 pandemic

The COVID-19 outbreak initially had a negative impact on the diesel gensets market revenue since the majority of industrial processes were halted due to nationwide lockdowns implemented by governments throughout the world to stop the spread of the infection. However, the high hospitalization rate and the establishment of temporary medical facilities to accommodate the influx of patients increased the requirement for gensets for reliable power supply. In addition, the rising popularity of remote working during the pandemic contributed substantially to industry growth.
