India Gas Generator Market Analysis
The market for the gas generator in India is expected to grow at CAGR of more than 4.5% in the forecast period of 2020-2025. Factors such as increasing awareness regarding natural gas as a clean and reliable fuel, increased concerns over diesel maintenance and refueling issues, decreasing natural gas fuel prices, and the general desire to be more environmentally responsible, have supplemented the demand for gas generators in recent years. However, the lack of gas grid connectivity via pipeline, resulting in hindered fuel supply, is expected to act as a challenging factor to overcome the gas generators market in the coming years.
- Below 75 kVA capacity generators are expected to witness significant growth during the forecast period, supported by the increase in demand from telecom, retail, and other commercial buildings and residential sectors.
- The commercial and industrial sectors of the emerging economies, the residential sector of developed economies, and the increasing need for power in defense operations are expected to create significant opportunities for market participants in the future.
- The industrial sector has accounted for the largest share of the revenue from the sale of gas generators in 2019, owing to the increasing demand for continuous and reliable power supply from the industrial sector.
