Market overview of the power rental market in Southeast Asia

Technavio’s market research analyst predicts the power rental market in Southeast Asia to grow at a steady CAGR of around 11% by 2020. Rapid economic development and accelerated investments in various industries have increased the power consumption in Southeast Asia. Due to poor T&D and low power production, the utility sector is unable to meet the rising demand for electricity. This has increased the instances of power blackouts, which in turn drives the need for power rental in this region.

The augmented demand for power from the industrial sector is the key driver for the growth of this market. The need for temporary power supply in the industrial sector is increasing due to the supply-demand gap for electricity. Many industries require a constant power supply to achieve optimum operational capacity and avoid financial losses due to outages. This shortage of electricity has forced the government to introduce short-term initiatives like leasing additional power from different islands and using diesel generators for additional capacity.
