Heightening Power Consumption Worldwide to Stoke Market Growth

Growing populations and speedy economic development, particularly in Asia and Africa, are the two main factors underpinning the soaring demand for power and electricity worldwide. According to the US Energy Information Administration (EIA), between 2018 and 2050, total world energy consumption will grow by 50%, led by non-OECD (the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development) countries. Furthermore, the International Energy Agency (IEA) revealed that gross electricity generation globally was 3.9% higher in 2018 than in 2017. Power rental solutions will play an instrumental role in meeting the surging demand for electricity worldwide as power on hire is a much cheaper and efficient alternative to purchasing power equipment. Furthermore, as the world gets increasingly digitized, the demand for power and energy will spiral at an even more accelerated pace over the next decade, creating a widespread need for robust standby power solutions.
