Canada Generator Sales Market Overview, 2028

Canada Generator Sales Market Overview, 2028

Generators are becoming an increasing necessity, as Atlantic Canada experiences more frequent and severe storms with extended power outages. Canada is a vast country with diverse geography and climate, including areas that are prone to power outages due to severe weather conditions. As a result, generators are in high demand in Canada, particularly during the winter months. The generator market in Canada is primarily driven by residential and commercial customers, including small businesses, hospitals, and government agencies. The increasing need for backup power supply in critical infrastructure and growing demand for uninterrupted power supply in remote locations are expected to drive the growth of the generator sales market in Canada. The adoption of advanced technologies, such as smart generators that can be controlled remotely and provide real-time monitoring, is gaining popularity in Canada. Additionally, the increasing popularity of hybrid generators that can run on both diesel and natural gas is also popular in Canada. Due to the vast geography of Canada, many people need portable generators for use in remote locations, such as camping or construction sites. The Canadian government has implemented policies and programs to promote the use of clean energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, which has resulted in a growing demand for environmentally-friendly generators. The mining industry is one of the largest users of generators in Canada. Mines often operate in remote locations where the power grid is unreliable or non-existent. Generators are used to power mining operations and provide backup power in the event of power outages. Construction sites often require temporary power to operate tools and equipment. Generators are used to provide temporary power to construction sites.

According to the research report ""Canada Generator Sales Market Overview, 2028,"" published by Bonafide Research, The Canada Generator Sales market is expected to grow at above 5.19% CAGR from 2023 to 2028. Smart generators are becoming increasingly popular in Canada. These generators are equipped with sensors, controls, and automation systems that allow them to communicate with other devices and systems. This technology helps to optimize the generator's performance and reduce downtime by alerting maintenance personnel when the generator requires service. Furthermore, Microgrids are small, self-contained power systems that can operate independently of the main power grid. They can be powered by generators; Microgrids are becoming popular in remote communities and industries such as mining, where access to the main power grid is limited. Energy storage systems are becoming more popular in Canada as they allow businesses and homeowners to store excess energy generated by their generators or renewable energy systems. This stored energy can be used during power outages or when energy prices are high. Gas turbines are another technique used in generators in Canada. These turbines use combustion gases to power a turbine, which generates electricity through an alternator. Gas turbines are commonly used in large-scale power plants and industrial applications. Fuel cells are another newer technique used in generators in Canada. Fuel cells use hydrogen to generate electricity through a chemical reaction. Fuel cells are a clean and efficient technology that is often used in small-scale power generation applications.

In Canada, there are several rules and regulations related to the sale and use of generators. These regulations are aimed at ensuring the safety and reliability of generators and protecting the environment. The Canadian Environmental Protection Act (CEPA) sets emissions standards for generators. These standards limit the amount of pollutants that generators can emit, including carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, and particulate matter. All generators sold in Canada must be certified by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA) or a similar organization. This certification ensures that the generator meets safety and performance standards. In some provinces, a permit may be required to install a generator. These permits ensure that the generator is installed safely and meets local building codes.

According to the fuel type, the market is divided into Diesel, Gas, Others (LPG, biofuel, coal gas, producer gas, gasoline, and propane gas). Among them the gas fuel generators are expected to gain highest growth rate of the market. Canada has been emphasizing environmental sustainability and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Gas fuel generators, such as natural gas or propane generators, are generally considered cleaner and produce lower emissions compared to diesel or gasoline generators. The increased focus on environmental regulations and sustainability goals may drive the demand for gas fuel generators in Canada. Canada is known for its abundant natural gas reserves. The existing infrastructure for natural gas distribution and availability can make gas fuel more accessible and convenient for users. This availability of gas fuel can contribute to the growth of gas fuel generators in the market. Gas fuel generators are commonly used in urban areas and residential settings due to their cleaner emissions profile and lower noise levels compared to diesel generators. As urban areas continue to expand and residential customers prioritize cleaner energy solutions, the demand for gas fuel generators in Canada's residential market may increase.

Based on the application includes the Standby, Peak shaving, Prime and continuous. In Canada the stand by generator are leading the market in Canada. Standby generators are specifically designed to provide backup power during utility power outages. In Canada, where extreme weather conditions like winter storms can lead to power disruptions, standby generators play a crucial role in ensuring continuous power supply for homes, businesses, and critical infrastructure. The reliability and quick response time of standby generators make them highly sought-after in regions prone to power outages. Standby generators are typically connected to an automatic transfer switch (ATS), which monitors the utility power supply. In the event of an outage, the ATS detects the loss of utility power and automatically starts the standby generator, ensuring a seamless transition of power supply. This automatic operation eliminates the need for manual intervention and provides convenience and peace of mind to users.

Based on end users include, industrial, residential and commercial. The commercial sector is anticipated to grow with highest CAGR of the market in upcoming time frame. Canada's commercial sector, including retail, offices, hospitality, and entertainment, has been experiencing growth and expansion. As commercial establishments grow in size and number, the demand for reliable power supply increases. Commercial businesses rely on generators to maintain uninterrupted operations, protect critical equipment, and ensure customer satisfaction. The demand for data centers is rising as businesses increasingly rely on digital infrastructure and cloud-based services. Data centers require a continuous power supply to safeguard data and ensure uninterrupted access to online services. Generator systems are crucial in providing backup power during utility outages and supporting the continuous operation of data centers. The growth of data centers in Canada contributes to the increased demand for generators in the commercial sector. Based on power ratings includes, 100 kVA, 100–350 kVA, 350–1,000 kVA, 1,000–2,500 kVA, 2,500–5,000 kVA and Above 5,000 kVA. The Below 100 kVA is leading market. In the upcoming time period the 350–1,000 kVA power rating is anticipated to gain highest CAGR of the market.
