Global Portable Generator Market

Over the recent years, the global portable generator has witnessed a healthy growth. This can be attributed to rapid urbanisation, growing global population, rising industrialisation, improvement in the constructional activities and increasing frequency of power grid failures.

According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Portable Generator Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2018-2023”, the global portable generator market reached a value of US$ 4 Billion in 2017. Portable generator, also known as engine-generator, refers to a combination of an electrical generator and an engine which provides electricity to requisite devices during power outages. It comprises of several components including a starter, alternator, fuel tank, outlets and internal combustion engine. Portable generators are widely preferred by the users as they are efficient, affordable and require minimum installation as well as operational costs in comparison with standby generators. They are considered suitable for places where power outages are common as they help in running homes, restaurants, construction sites and corporate buildings by offering uninterrupted power supply.

On account of growing frequency of power grid failures, an increase in the adoption of portable generators has been observed across the globe. Other factors like rapid urbanisation, mounting population and increasing industrialisation in developing economies are also contributing towards the augmented demand for portable generators. Moreover, as electrical appliances like refrigerators, air conditioners, communication equipment, etc. have become an indispensable part, the residential users are increasingly using portable generators owing to the safety as well as mobility of the appliances. Apart from this, portable generators are also used in the construction industry for operating power tools such as saws, drills, air compressors and paint prayers. Overall development in the construction sector in the near future is expected to create a positive impact on the portable generator market. As a result, the market value is projected to reach US$ 6 Billion by 2023, expanding at a CAGR of around 7% during 2018-2023.
