Top 10 Manufacturers of Stationary Generators | As Higher Demand for Electricity Owing to Growing Population is Boosting this Industry

Power outages have been a huge issue in several countries, which eventually affected industries. Continuous power outage problems in industries led to the invention of stationary generator. Moreover, sudden power outage disturbs the workflow of industries. As a result, many industries widely adopt these generators to avoid any power disturbance. Industries, such as automobile, manufacturing, mining, oil & gas, telecommunications, and pharmaceuticals, are a few domains employing these generators. 

The constant upgrade in products and industries is the cause of the market growth of stationary generator. The global population is on a constant rise, leading to rise in urbanization. The key competitors are focused on developing generators with less maintenance and high power. As per a report by Fortune Business Insights™, the market for stationary generator is expected to grow from USD 20.83 billion in 2021 to USD 31.96 billion in 2028 at a CAGR of 6.3% during the forecast period. 

Remote Work During Pandemic Crashed Power Demand in Industries

Positive and negative impacts of the pandemic were noticeable in every industry. The global market noticed a decline in growth due to strict rules and regulations, including lockdowns. The remote work culture adopted due to the shutdown of all industries noticeably crashed the requirement for power supply.

Significant infrastructure development contributed to the exponential growth of the market.
