Global Generator Sales Market Estimated to reach Around US$ 37.0 Bn by 2026


The global generator sales market was valued at around US$ 24 Bn in 2017 and is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of more than 5% from 2018 to 2026, according to a new report titled ‘Generator Sales Market – Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast, 2018–2026’ published by Transparency Market Research (TMR)

Generators are commonly used for short periods of time, especially during interruptions in electricity supply from transmission and distribution networks. Diesel is a commonly used fuel in generators. Countries across the globe are adopting various emission reduction goals to curb pollution. Continuous use of diesel in generators can hamper the emission reduction targets of countries. Hence, countries are introducing stringent laws that require generator manufacturers to lower emissions from diesel generators.


Rise in Incidence of Power Outages Driving Market Growth

The global electrification rate has been improving over the last decade. However, the number of power outage days has also increased. Power outage primarily occurs due to natural calamities, transmission line failure, distribution line failure, and faults in equipment of power generation station or substation. Old power infrastructure, aging supply lines, and frequent incidences of natural calamities in North America are resulting in power failures in several states in the region. This is expected to drive the generator sales market in the region during the forecast period. Additionally, power fluctuations can cause considerable damage. For instance, they can damage electric equipment. The damage can also spread from equipment or machinery to humans operating those machines. Breakdown in any equipment in the entire infrastructure from power generation to transmission and distribution can cause short or long power outage days, depending on the severity of equipment failure. Furthermore, power outage reduces industrial output and leads to loss in revenues. It also causes discomfort, malfunctioning, and unproductivity in residential, commercial, government, and other facilities. Generator sets supply power to such facilities during power outages. Thus, increase in number of days of power outages is boosting the sales of generator sets.

Natural Gas Expected to be Highly Lucrative Segment

Diesel is a commonly used fuel in generators. However, the market share of the diesel segment is expected to decline during the forecast period, as it causes pollution. Pollution has become a major concern across the globe. On the other hand, natural gas is estimated to be a highly lucrative segment of the generator sales market during the forecast period. Natural gas generators make lesser noise and emit lower amount of VOCs than other types of generators. However, natural gas is highly flammable. High operation and maintenance costs of natural gas generators are projected to hamper the natural gas segment in the near future.

Major Norms and Regulations related to Generator Sales Market

In 2010, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued its final exhaust emission regulations for emergency standby diesel generator sets. These came into effect on January 1, 2011.
The U.S. EPA started to enforce limitations on exhaust emissions for off-highway diesel engines in 1996 and for stationary diesel generator sets in 2006. These progressive regulations (called ‘Tier levels’) became more stringent over the intervening years and have had a major impact in substantially lowering the levels of nitrogen oxide (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO), particulate matter (PM), and non-methane hydrocarbons (NMHCs).
EU Stage-V standards are scheduled to come into effect in 2019 and 2020. They pertain to emissions from diesel use, especially the emission of nitrogen oxide (NOx) and carbon dioxide (CO2). These are likely to adversely affect the demand for generators.

Standby Segment Dominates Global Generator Sales Market

Generators are commonly used for short periods of time, especially during interruptions in electricity supply from transmission and distribution networks. Most countries across the globe are investing significantly in renewable energy. Increase in adoption of renewable energy is likely to cause interruption in power supply. Hence, standby is expected to remain a major application segment of the market during the forecast period. The prime and continuous segment is expected to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period.

Generator Sales Market in Middle East & Africa Anticipated to Expand at Substantial Pace

Asia Pacific dominated the global generator sales market in 2017. China and ASEAN are the major consumers of generators in Asia Pacific. On the other hand, the market in Middle East & Africa is estimated to expand at a substantial pace during the forecast period. Africa is the second-most populous region in the world, with 1.2 billion people living in the region. According to the World Bank’s ‘State of Electricity Access Report–2017,’ more than 62% (i.e. around 609 million) people in Sub-Saharan Africa did not have access to electricity. High costs of grid connections is a prominent barrier to electrification in the region. Hence, most of the people largely dependent on generators.

Highly Competitive Market with Dominance of Top Players

The global generator sales market is highly fragmented. Large number of local and international players provide generator sales services. Key players operating in the global market include Cummins Inc., Caterpillar Inc., Generac Holdings Inc., Himoinsa S.L., AKSA Power Generation, KOEL Green, Atlas Copco AB, Aggreko PLC, Kohler Co., Briggs & Stratton Corporation, Yamaha Motor Corporation, Greaves Cotton Limited, AGCO Corporation, APR Energy, and Multiquip Inc.

Nitro Compound Fertilizers Market Major Advancements & Global Industry Analysis

Nitro Compound Fertilizers  Market: Overview Compound fertilizers contain multiple nutrients in each individual granule. They differ from a blend of fertilizers mixed together to achieve a desired average nutrient composition. It helps farmers to spread compound fertilizers so that each granule delivers a mixture of nutrients as it dissolves in the soil and eliminates the potential for segregation of nutrient sources during transport or application. Multiple-nutrient granules of compound fertilizers also help achieve uniform distribution of micronutrients throughout the root zone. Nitro compound fertilizers are products that contain rich nitrite nitrogen and ammonium nitrogen, which are easily absorbed by plants at high rates. In nitro compound fertilizers, the ammonium nitrogen provides sustainable nutrition to plants to support their rapid growth and strengthen the roots through photosynthesis.

Global Thermocouple alloys Market | | Progressive Growth In Upcoming Year

Thermocouple consists of two dissimilar metals which are joined to form electrical junctions at differing temperatures and produce electric current. . When selecting thermocoupling alloys, it is important to keep in mind the application temperature range, environment, accuracy required and length of service. Thermocouples are a widely used type of temperature sensor. Commercial thermocouples are inexpensive, interchangeable, are supplied with standard connectors, and can measure a wide range of temperatures. In contrast to most other methods of temperature measurement, thermocouples are self-powered and require no external form of excitation. The main limitation with thermocouples is accuracy; system errors of less than one degree Celsius (°C) can be difficult to achieve. Thermocouples are widely used in science and industry. Applications include temperature measurement for kilns, gas turbine exhaust, diesel engines, and other industrial processes. Thermocouples are also use...
