How will Government Emphasis on Rural Infrastructure Development Boost Sales?

With rapid urbanization across the world, governments in various countries are increasingly focusing on developing sustainable infrastructures and urbanizing rural areas, which in turn is spurring demand for power supply machineries.

For instance, according to the Department of Economic Affairs, the Government of India announced allocating USD 103 Bn for construction of rural housing, rural roads, and drinking water infrastructure development under the country’s 5-year plan from 2022 to 2025.

As gasoline generators are extensively used to power instruments and machines at construction sites, especially across rural area where power supply from the mainline is not accessible, this rise in rural infrastructure development activities are projected to augment growth in the market.

On account of this, the gasoline generator market is expected to exceed USD 994.6 Mn by 2029, in comparison to the USD 741 Mn registered in 2021.

How will Increasing Sales of Disaster Management Equipment Influence Demand?

Rising incidence of natural disasters such as floods, cyclones, and hurricanes is being witnessed across the globe, which is significantly propelling sales of disaster management equipment such as gasoline generators.

For instance, according to the Australian Bureau of Meteorology, around 27 tropical lows, 8 tropical cyclones, and 2 severe cyclones were reported across Australia, causing damage of more than USD 518.7 Mn between 2020 and 2021.

With destroyed power supply infrastructure across the impacted areas post these disasters, gasoline generators are increasingly used to provide electricity for necessities in recovery, rehabilitation, and restoration camps.

As per FMI, the aforementioned factors are projected to drive sales in the gasoline generators market over the forecast period.
