Environmental Risks Associated with Diesel Generators May Hamper Market Growth

Diesel-powered generators, though a reliable source of backup power, are known to have damaging effects on the environment and human health. A study conducted by the University of Western Australia Crawley and the University of New South Wales Sydney found that diesel exhaust emit over 40 toxic pollutants, including several carcinogenic substances such as formaldehyde, arsenic, and benzene. The overuse of these generators, especially in developing nations, where power outages are common, poses a high risk to the environment and humans, the study postulated. In Nigeria, where the study took place, 30% of households and 90% of businesses use diesel generators. A similar situation was witnessed in New Delhi, India in June 2018, when pollution levels reached record limits. According to a study by the Center for Science and Environment (CSE), where diesel generators usage exceeded 7 to 8 hours per day, approximately 1900 milligrams/normal cubic meter of Particulate matter (PM) 10 was produced during the day. In October 2020, the Delhi Pollution Control Committee banned the use of diesel generators in Delhi-NCR to manage air quality. These significant disadvantages of diesel-powered generators are likely to hamper the growth of this market during the forecast period.
