Portable Generator Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2023-2028
Market Overview:
The global portable generator market size reached US$ 4.9 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 7.2 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 6.4% during 2023-2028.
A portable generator is a gas and diesel-powered backup device that provides a temporary power supply for non-hardwired and stand-alone applications. It comprises numerous components, including an alternator, starter, fuel tank, outlets, and internal combustion engine, which are mounted onto a single metal frame. It directly powers electrical appliances like fridges, fans, bulbs, televisions (TVs), and refrigerators and provides electricity during emergency power outages. As it is cost-effective and mobile and can be shifted from one place to another, a portable generator is used across various industries worldwide.
Portable Generator Market Trends:
The increasing global population, rapid urbanization, and the rising frequency of power grid failures are catalyzing the demand for portable generators to facilitate uninterrupted electricity supply. In addition, the growing utilization of these generators in the construction industry to facilitate the proper functioning of power tools, air compressors, saws, drills, and paint sprayers is also creating a positive market outlook. Furthermore, the increasing occurrence of natural calamities, such as earthquakes, tsunamis, floods, and volcanic eruptions, disrupt the natural grid infrastructure. This, in turn, is increasing the sales of portable generators to provide electricity for rescue operations. Apart from this, the escalating demand for low-cost and diesel-fueled generators, along with shifting consumer preferences for natural gas-fueled generators due to increasing environmental concerns, is stimulating market growth. Moreover, leading market players are focusing on introducing variants with enhanced flexibility and durability, which is expected to propel the market growth.
