Africa Diesel Genset Market - Industry Trends & Forecast Report 2028

Africa Diesel Genset Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.4% during the forecast period (2022–2028). The market expansion is due to the commercial sector's high demand for medium- and high-power diesel gensets as well as the expansion of the manufacturing and construction sectors. Macroeconomic progress, increasing capital expenditures (CAPEX) by public and private enterprises, as well as government reforms and incentives to promote foreign and domestic investments in a variety of industries. The well-developed legal, financial, communications, and transport sectors, as well as an open trade policy and a reasonably robust domestic market, are major pillars of Africa's economy. The demand for an uninterrupted power supply is also being fueled by government initiatives to build healthcare facilities and health & wellness centers, revive the power sector, and establish business hubs and industries.

Diesel Genset - Overview

Diesel generators are machines that generate electricity and meet demand during times of grid failure, power outages, emergencies, and so on. These generators are widely used in Africa's various sectors, including residential, mining and quarrying, industrial and construction, oil and gas, and telecommunications, due to benefits including low maintenance costs, durability, safe storage, reliability, easy access to fuel, and higher power output.

Africa Diesel Genset Market Forecast and Trends

Growth Drivers

End-user industries driving demand for diesel generators

Due to stringent regulations, leading companies in the diesel gensets market are constantly having trouble finding next-generation diesel generators. The generators of the future have electronic governors and automatic voltage regulators built in. The generators are more energy-efficient owing to these technologies, which mechanically regulate the speed of the generator engines as needed. Additionally, they include some extra features like remote genset monitoring. These advancements may give diesel gensets a longer lifespan, helping the market to expand. Governments across African nations are concentrating on achieving several development goals, including increasing the time needed to set up the distribution and transmission infrastructure, and achieving a significant improvement in the rate of rural electrification. All these factors are expected boost the further growth of Africa diesel genset market during the forecast period.

Government programs to develop infrastructure

Due to government initiatives, such as the National Transport Master Plan 2050, Vision 2025, and National Development Plan (NDP) 2030, electricity demand is expected to increase in South Africa over the next few years, which is expected to drive the growth of Africa diesel genset market. By 2030, the NDP wants to significantly reduce both poverty and inequality. Additionally, the country performs well among African counterparts in terms of infrastructure for transportation and logistics, as well as trade facilitation. It results in offering lucrative growth opportunities for Africa diesel genset market.

Increasing demand for hybrid, bi-fuel, and inverter generators

In an effort to find alternative energy sources to replace conventional fossil fuels, new and innovative fuel sources are currently being developed. Many OEMs are now offering hybrid generators, which are essentially internal combustion engines with a battery. When the load is high, these hybrid gensets supply power directly to the engine, while when the load is low, the battery supplies power. They reduce generator running time, fuel consumption, and noise. They have several advantages over traditional gensets and are expected to make inroads into mobile gensets, which are primarily used in remote area applications, urban construction sites, and the mining industry.

Restraints

Environmental concerns

Numerous residential, commercial, and industrial uses exist for diesel generators. Burning diesel releases nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and particulates. These emissions damage both the environment and occupants as they are directly released into the atmosphere. Around the world, a number of regulations have been put into place to lessen the air and noise pollution caused by generator sets. As environmental concerns have increased, countries have developed their own set of rules and policies to cut back on air pollution. Depending on the volume of emissions from dangerous gases, such as SOx, NOx, and CO2, countries of Africa have various environmental laws, policies, and subsidy programs.  Ship component manufacturers are focused on the development of marine propulsion systems that comply with various environment regulations formulated by governments across Africa. This presents a significant challenge for emerging and local companies operating in the generator sales market.

Impact of COVID-19 on Africa Diesel Genset Market

COVID-19 pandemic has led to a decline in demand from the power range. This is mainly due to limited mining, industrial, and construction activities in various African countries for non-essential products as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak. The majority of the countries in the region have widely adopted work-from-home policies, which has significantly increased the demand for internet services and video & audio-conferencing equipment from service sector businesses. As a result, demand for diesel generators from datacenters has increased.

Africa Diesel Genset Market - By End User

Based on end user, Africa diesel genset market is segmented into BFSI, Construction, Datacenter, Manufacturing, Mining & Quarrying, Oil & Gas, Residential, Telecom, and Others. The residential segment is expected to generate the most lucrative growth prospects for the diesel generator market in Africa between 2022 and 2028. It is primarily due to the rapid improvement in the economies of various countries, i.e., a growing adoption of home appliances in the residential sector and rising demand for diesel generators for a continuous and stable energy supply. Furthermore, the growing government focus on smart city developments, which is leading to an increase in energy-efficient solutions, is another factor that is augmenting demand for diesel generators as a primary source of power generation and, as a result, driving the market through 2028.

Africa Diesel Genset Market – By Power Rating

Based on power rating, Africa diesel genset market is segmented into Up to 30 kW, 30.1 to 60 kW, 60.1 to 150 kW, 150.1 to 300 kW, 300.1 to 500 kW, 500.1 to 1,000 kW, and Above 1,000 kW. Among these, the segment up to 30.1 to 60 kW is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period. The increased demand for backup power solutions in the residential sector is driving the demand for generators with power ratings of up to 30.1 to 60 kW. Generators with power ratings of up to 30.1 to 60 kW are also used to provide backup power for small-scale commercial activities, such as telecommunications, retail, and others. These generators are also used in recreational vehicles, fire and emergency vehicles, utility and telecom fleets, and other specialty vehicles that require prime power. All these factors boost the growth of Africa diesel genset market during the forecast period (2022–2028).

Africa Diesel Genset Market - By Country

Africa diesel genset market by country is segmented into Algeria, Egypt, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, and Others. In previous years, South Africa dominated Africa diesel generator market with the largest share. It is primarily due to numerous government investments and favorable policies, resulting in a growing establishment of multinational corporations and start-ups across the country. As a result, the demand for diesel generators is increasing to meet the increasing electricity requirements for these companies' business operations. Nigeria, on the other hand, is expected to dominate the market with the largest share between 2022 and 2028, owing to the easy and abundant availability of fossil fuels, as well as poor infrastructure, which results in lower transmission capabilities and massive energy consumption. As a result, the demand for diesel generators is increasing to meet the increasing needs for electricity. Additionally, the leading players are expected to witness significant growth opportunities to increase their production capacities and drive the overall market growth through 2028 because the majority of the population in the country uses small-capacity diesel generators.
