Historical and Future Outlook
Demand for temporary power has grown exponentially over the last five years owing to burgeoning requirement for high fuel efficiency, improved power output, and reduced operational costs. While steady expansion of the construction industry has catapulted sales, various regulations, initiatives, and governmental investments have further catalyzed temporary power requirements.
As stated by the European Commission (EC), the construction industry contributed approximately 9% of the EU’s GDP in the past, while buildings accounted for the largest share of final energy consumption (40%) from 2015 to 2020. While North America and Europe exhibit high potential, Asia Pacific remains immensely lucrative.
High requirement for cost-effective and efficient power is projected to boost revenue of temporary power manufacturers through 2030. According to Fact.MR, the global temporary power market is set to ascend at over 5% during the forecast period, with construction and building industry set to gain further momentum.
How is Focus on Energy Efficiency Boosting Temporary Power Equipment Sales?
Temporary power has gained popularity among diverse end-user segments such as construction & renovation, mining, utilities, and others as it is very suitable in supplying the required power in a cost-effective, hassle-free way. Rising energy concerns and subsequent initiatives taken by governmental organizations have stimulated the growth of temporary power.
As per the European Commission’s report, in December, 2020, the European Union (EU) has committed to reduce energy consumption by 20% by the year 2020 compared to baseline projections, while for 2030, the EU has the binding target of reducing at least 32.5%.
Furthermore, according to the “Energy Efficiency and Conservation- U.S.” report by the. Energy Information Administration (EIA), there was a historic slowdown in energy efficiency globally in 2018, improving marginally by 1.2% as compared to 2017. This is providing manufacturers and suppliers an opportunity to enhance their presence across the temporary power market.

What % of Revenues are on Account of Demand from Construction Industry?
According to the European Commission (EC), the construction industry is an integral part of the European economy. Rising number of industrial, commercial, and residential buildings construction and renovation is augmenting demand for temporary power, prompting manufacturers and suppliers to offer efficient and cost-effective services and materials. To provide further boost, the “European Construction Sector Observatory (ECSO)” initiative was undertaken by COSME, which regularly carries out comparative assessments on the construction sector in all 27 EU countries and the UK.
As per the Global Statistical Data published in 2020, the construction industry in the South and South-East Asia is highly potential and forecast to grow at over 6% by volume through 2025. In 2015, Japan’s Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism announced its new “i-construction” standard for surveying, construction, and other tasks which utilize 3D data. In order to achieve a world-leading “Super Smart Society”, the Japanese Government and construction industry have joined hands.
According to the Office for National Statistics, in Great Britain, construction output grew by 1% in the month-on-month all work series in October 2020 while the ‘new work’ and ‘repair & maintenance’ segments exhibited growth of 0.3% and 2.3% respectively.
Approximately 95% of construction, architecture, and civil engineering firms are micro-enterprises or Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs), providing stimulus to the temporary power market. According to EC, EU SME value added has grown ~4% in 2019 and ~4.2% in 2020. Despite the possibility of up and downs in the SME sector, they remain as a focal point in shaping the growth and scope of the temporary power suppliers.
According to the Associated General Contractors (AGC) of America, construction industry is a major contributor to the United States economy. As per their data, the industry creates nearly US$ 1.3 trillion worth of structures every year, employing over 680,000 people with over 7 million employees.
Key Challenges
While temporary power has all in one solutions for space and time constraints, tight budget, and energy waste, there are a few restraints likely to come in the way of the future growth of the temporary power sources.
For instance, renewable energy plants, which are the key sources of temporary power, has several drawbacks such as fluctuating weather patterns. Thus, power equipment dependent on solar energy would be rendered ineffective on a cloudy day while those running on wind power would be unusable on a non-breezy day.
Additionally, there are sets of rules and codes to be complied with during the installation and uninstallation process of temporary power set-up. And hence, it requires experts’ handling and maintenance.
Moreover, the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has induced a temporary blip across key end-user industries such as mining, building & construction, decelerating growth of the temporary power industry. According to the Construction Institute Organization (CII), in the U.K., over 80% of construction businesses plunged into recession immediately after the pandemic’s outbreak.
However, with the world getting back to the track by adopting the ‘new normal’, the market is recovering fast and forecast to grow exponentially in the coming years.

Why Diesel Generator is Preferred over Others?
Diesel generators are presently highly sought-after sources for temporary power due to their abundance, light-weight, and cost effectiveness. Dual fuel generator, gas generator, solar generator are other key sources for the temporary power.
As per the statistics published by the United States Department of Energy in 2015, nearly 15 countries account for more than 75% of the world’s oil production and hold approximately 93% of its reserves. United States, China, and others being in the list, holds high potential for further growth due to the abundance of the fuels for such generators.
According to the research unit of China National Petroleum Corp (CNPC), China’s total oil demand will top out at around 690 million tonnes a year, or 13.8 million barrels per day (bpd) by 2030. As stated in their report, China’s diesel demand has peaked and the demand for gasoline is forecast to peak by 2025.
This is expected to have a significant contribution in growing the key power source segments of temporary power in the coming years.
Utilities to Emerge as the Primary End-Use Industry
The utilities sector is responsible for providing basic amenities such as water, electricity, natural gas, and others, highly require the supply of temporary power. Hence, it is expected to emerge as the primary application area in the upcoming forecast period.
As per The World Bank’s Data, average per capita electricity consumption globally is 2,782 KWh and is increasing steadily with the growing demand. The EIA’s November, 2020 report states that Japan was the fifth largest energy consumer in the world in 2019, while China became the largest energy consumer in the world.
China’s energy consumption accounts for nearly 18% of the global energy consumption since its consumption surged by 8% since 2009. Also, according to China Electricity Council, total electricity consumption in China rose by 4.5% in 2019, with the residential and services sectors recording the highest growths of 5.7% and 9.5% respectively.
As per the report, electricity consumption in the industrial sector increased by 3.1%, contributing to 48% of the consumption growth and accounted for 68% of the total electricity consumption in China in 2019. With the utilities industry gaining traction, the demand for temporary power is expected to rise exponentially in the coming years.
