Singapore Diesel Generator Set Market Overview
A key trend being observed in the Singapore diesel generator set market is the demand for such equipment from data centers and the infrastructure sector of the country. Singapore is home to the data centers of several multinational companies, such as Google, Amazon, Microsoft, and Equinix. Companies worldwide are relocating the backbone of their essential operations to Singapore on account of its geographical advantages, such as proximity to Southeast Asian countries. In order to prevent server crashes and provide an uninterrupted power supply, the usage of diesel generator sets at the data centers in Singapore is increasing at a high pace.
The Singapore diesel genset market is classified into 5 kVA–75 KVA, 75 kVA–375 KVA, 375 kVA–750 KVA, and above 750 KVA, based on power rating. Among these, the 5 kVA–75 KVA category is expected to account for the largest share throughout the forecast period (2020–2030). This can be ascribed to the wide adoption of these gensets in data centers, telecom towers, retail establishments, small-scale industrial facilities, and offices.
The Singapore diesel genset market is also categorized into residential, commercial, and industrial, on the basis of application. Among these, the commercial category is expected to account for a significant share during the forecast period, owing to the substantial growth of the infrastructure sector in the country, including the expansion of commercial establishments and data centers. In order to provide a continuous power supply for uninterrupted business operations, the adoption of diesel gensets in the commercial sector is expected to rise in Singapore during the forecast period.
Singapore Diesel Generator Set Market Dynamics
Drivers
The diesel generator set market in Singapore is primarily driven by the high backup power requirement in hotels, malls, and other commercial buildings, such as data centers and offices. Singapore serves as a key trading hub and tourist destination, witnessing a footfall of over 18.5 million international tourists annually. Hence, there is a high requirement for diesel gensets in commercial spaces, including hotels, for continuous power supply.
Restraints
Singapore has one of the most-developed and reliable power grids, with an average interruption time of less than 1 minute per customer, annually. However, there is an occasional voltage dip, which is a momentary reduction in the electricity supply voltage. On account of the efficient and reliable grid connectivity in the country, the usage of diesel gensets is limited, owing to which the Singapore diesel generator set market is expected to witness a restrained growth during the forecast period.
Singapore Diesel Generator Set Market Competitive Landscape
Some of the major companies operating in the diesel generator set market in the country are Cummins Inc., Kubota Corporation, YANMAR HOLDINGS CO. LTD., Atlas Copco (South-East Asia) Pte Ltd., Powerzone Technologies Pte Ltd., FG Wilson Asia Pte Ltd., XMH Holdings Ltd., Denyo United Machinery Pte Ltd., and THE SEDO CORPORATION LTD.
