Key Residential Portable Generator Market Driver in the US
One of the key factors driving growth in the residential portable generator market in the US is the major power outages due to natural disasters. Weather is the most common cause of power outages in the US. According to the Edison Electric Institute (EEI), 70% of all power outages in the country are caused by severe weather or natural disasters. Lightning, rainfall, snow, wind, and dust are some common causes of power outages. However, natural disasters, such as floods and severe storms, cause major power outages. Therefore, frequent natural disasters that affect power utilities have spurred the demand for uninterrupted power supply, thereby increasing the demand for portable generators in the US. More customers are opting to purchase portable generators, especially diesel generators, as these generators can reduce the inconvenience and the possible dangers that come with power outages during natural disasters.
Key Residential Portable Generator Market Challenge in the US
The availability of portable solar-powered generators will be a major challenge for the residential portable generator market in the US during the forecast period. Availability of portable solar-powered generators Gas-powered generators cannot be used in remote locations that do not have supply and during power outages as the gas pumps cannot work. Hence, portable solar-powered generators are preferred for such applications. Heavy-duty solar-powered generators can provide several hours of backup for residences, excluding heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. However, such generators are not suitable for long-term daily use. Solar-powered generators require more space than conventional generators. The operation of solar-powered generators also requires expertise. Several companies that manufacture solar-powered generators are focusing on addressing such issues. The elimination of such issues will be a challenge for the growth of the residential portable generator market in the US during the forecast period.
