A diesel generator is a piece of equipment that turns the chemical energy in diesel into electrical energy. It can provide electricity to electrical gadgets and devices. It can also power a variety of applications, including institutions, healthcare facilities, companies, and households. It could be used as a primary source of power or in an emergency. Generators are classified into four types based on their intended function. For backup applications, emergency standby and limited-time power, and continuous and prime rated power when employed as the primary source of power. A diesel generator's efficiency ranges between 30 and 50 percent and is a mix of diesel engine and alternator efficiencies. The key benefits of diesel generators are their long durability, great efficiency, low cost in comparison to other generators, and quick setup time. Besides this, the usage of diesel generators pollutes the environment and has high maintenance and running costs.

Market Segmentation

Market by Power Rating

·         Low Power Generator

·         Medium Power Generator

·         High Power Generator

Based on power rating, the low power generator will have the largest market share in 2021. This growth could be attributable to the availability of a diverse application base in the residential and industrial sectors. Generators with capacities less than 80 kW are used as power backup solutions in private households to power electrical devices such as water purifiers, water pumps, AC units, geysers, and others. Furthermore, the high efficiency of these generators is expected to have a substantial impact on expanding product demand during the projected years.

Furthermore, due to rising demand from large-scale industries such as construction, healthcare, manufacturing, commercial, and data centers, the high-power diesel engine is expected to obtain a considerable market share in the coming years.

Market by Mobility

·         Stationary

·         Portable

Based on mobility, the stationary diesel generator segment will lead the global market in 2021 due to rising demand from industrial sectors such as mining, manufacturing, agriculture, and construction. Furthermore, the portable segment is expected to grow dramatically in the market over the estimated time period. Portable diesel generators are easy to transport, are designed for staff usage, are cost-effective, provide emergency backup and injury protection, and endure a long time. Portable generators are in significant demand as a result of these advantages.

Market by Applications

·         Standby Power

·         Peak Shaving

·         Prime or Continuous Power

In terms of application, the standby power sector is expected to lead the global market in 2021. Standby power diesel generators are used for backing up of emergency power for a short amount of time due to the lack of overloading capabilities incorporated into the generator units. Companies recognize the steady growth rate of the standby power diesel generator market and, as a result, focus on new product launches as a means of generating business revenue through increased product sales revenue.

Market by End-use

·         Industrial

·         Commercial

·         Residential

Based on the end-use, the commercial segment held the largest share of the diesel generator market due to increased demand from commercial venues such as supermarkets, malls, complexes, theatres, and other purposes. The rapid growth rate can be attributed to the broad application area, which includes government centers, data centers, educational institutions, hospitality, healthcare, agriculture, and telecommunications, among other things.
