The global generators market size reached approximately USD 65.97 billion in 2023. The market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.80% between 2024 and 2032, reaching a value of around USD 100.60 billion by 2032.
A generator is defined as electrical equipment which is used for the transmission of power lines to domestic, commercial, automotive, military and defence, aerospace, and industrial sectors by converting mechanical energy into electricity. This mechanical power is usually obtained by rotating a shaft, which is multiplied by rotational or angular velocity.
The generators market growth is propelled by the increase in sales demand due to the rise in the number of data centres, businesses, hospitals, and other commercial complexes. Emerging nations are improving their power networks, to be able to supply energy reliably to consumer and industrial end-users. Accelerating economic growth and technological advancements are further increasing the demand for power and generators. As a result of growing industrial expansion, high production levels, and rising investment, the demand for high-capacity industrial generators is increasing. Silent generators are also immensely popular as they can operate in close proximity to workers without causing any noise disturbance, which is accelerating the generators market development.
The rising applications of generators in various end-use sectors, including military and defence, automotive, commercial, industrial, oil and gas, aerospace, and construction, among others, are among the crucial factors in the market. Generators are capable of producing the power required for the functioning of equipment used in the above industries, such as appliances, compressors, and fans, among others.

“Generators Market Report and Forecast 2024-2032” offers a detailed analysis of the market based on the following segments:
Market Breakup by Type
Market Breakup by Power Generation
Market Breakup by Region
AC motors account for a major generators market share due to their high durability and efficiency
According to the market analysis, AC motors offer significant advantages, which make them ideal for an industrial setting. These advantages include lower power demand for start-up, improved control over acceleration and current levels, broader customisability, and enhanced durability, longevity, and efficiency. In addition to this, the growing demand for AC motors in appliances such as compressors, conveyors, HVAC equipment, and transportation equipment, among others is anticipated to increase the segment share in the forecast period.
DC motors are anticipated to gain significant growth in the forecast period as they are more commonly found in applications that require precise speed and torque control. In diesel generator sets, DC motors can be used as starting motors as these motors are responsible for turning over the diesel engine until it starts running on its own.
Standby generators maintain their dominance in the market due to their rising usage in end-use sectors such as residential and commercial, among other sectors
Standby generators, also known as backup or emergency generators, hold the highest share in the generators market. This is due to their widespread use across various sectors, including residential, commercial, industrial, and healthcare. Standby generators are essential for providing emergency power during outages, ensuring uninterrupted operation of critical systems and equipment. The growing popularity of standby generators in the residential sector is also anticipated to augment the segment growth.
Portable generators are expected to grow at a sizeable rate in the generators market in the coming years. Their versatility, ease of use, and mobility make them popular for a wide range of applications, including recreational activities, construction sites, small businesses, and temporary power needs.
The generators market players are introducing novel technologies to stay ahead in the competition, further increasing their collaboration efforts to meet the evolving regulatory landscape
