DRIVING FACTORS


Rising Need for Electrification and Continuous Power Supply in the Middle East Region to Boost Market Growth


Increasing faults in transmission & distribution lines, failure in power generation equipment, abrupt grid problems, natural calamities, and several other factors are frequently affecting the power supply across the Middle East countries. Various public and private authorities are readily adopting measures to diminish the power cut durations to enable customers to continue with their operations.


Unexpected power outages have significantly increased consumers’ demand for reliable backup power sources in industrial and commercial sectors, propelling the Middle East and CIS power generator rental market growth. In June 2020, for instance, electricity services were interrupted in cities and villages in Asir, Jazan, Najran, Al Baha, and some governorates in the southwestern part of the Makkah region due to bad weather conditions. As per Saudi Electricity Company (SEC), around 25% of the mobile towers were not functioning as the back-up power supply systems had stopped functioning after power disruptions extended for more than 10 hours.


High Demand for Continuous Power Supply from the Mining Sector to Drive Market Growth


Rental generator sets are mostly used for supplying power in areas with very low grid connectivity. Mining activities are among the key application areas for generators as most of the mining activities are carried out in remote areas, where the power supply through the grid is not available.


Driven by increasing investments, the mining sector in Russia, Kazakhstan, and several other CIS countries are likely to witness noteworthy growth. In addition, new mining projects are anticipated to be launched in Russia, Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan in the coming years. The factors mentioned above are anticipated to accelerate the demand for power generator rental solutions. For Instance, according to the Australian Trade & Investment Commission, Rio Tinto Group is planning to invest around AUD 100 million into a copper mine in Northern Kazakhstan. The company has formed a 50/50 venture with a national operator of mining assets called Tau-Ken Samruk to explore the mineral resources across the country.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


Stringent Environmental Regulations Governing Emission & Noise Reduction to Hamper Market Growth


The Middle East & Africa and Europe have framed numerous stringent rules to limit carbon emissions from power plant operations. These rules also state the accepted diesel generator noise levels to decrease noise pollution caused by diesel generator operations. Several environmental agencies, such as the Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA), in the UAE, have imposed stringent regulations on diesel power generators. Another crucial factor hampering the adoption of diesel generators is the conversion toward greener alternatives provided by Energy Service Companies (ESCOs).
