The non-residential segment showed a gradual increase in the market share of USD 14.26 billion in 2017 and continued to grow by 2021. With increasing urbanization and changing lifestyles, the demand for energy is increasing, especially in developing economies. In the industrial sector, growth in automation and control processes has led to a significant rise in power consumption and dependence on power. Therefore, the demand for smooth, continuous operations is expected to increase significantly during the forecast period. In addition, factors such as accelerating growth momentum and infrastructural developments in emerging economies will drive the growth of the segment during the forecast period.
Online or double-conversion modules offer a continuous supply of power to critical loads by filtering and converting incoming utility power to DC power, which is subsequently converted to a perfect AC output from the inverter. A complete double-online conversion protects the important load from any transient or voltage anomaly, including surges, sags, swells, and line drops, through this procedure. The double conversion UPS modules are necessary for companies that require uninterrupted power supply since the AC-DC/DC-AC construction guarantees a higher degree of isolation of the load from main supply irregularities.

The growing use of lithium-ion batteries in UPS systems is a major trend in the market. Lithium-ion batteries offer several advantages over lead-acid batteries, such as higher energy density, higher depth of discharge, higher charge rate, longer power-holding capacity, and longer shelf life. Owing to the higher energy density, lithium-ion batteries are significantly smaller in size than lead-acid batteries of similar capacity. Lithium-ion batteries are preferred to lead-acid batteries for use in these systems because of their advantages.
Other than superior performance, cost is a critical differentiating factor between lithium-ion batteries and other battery technologies. Lithium-ion batteries are priced significantly higher than lead-acid batteries. This drawback of lithium-ion batteries is slowly being eliminated as the cost of lithium-ion batteries continues to decline, making them more competitive than lead-acid batteries. Therefore, the increasing use of lithium-ion batteries in UPS systems, owing to increased performance and reduction in the total cost of ownership of UPS systems, is driving their adoption among end-users and will drive the growth of the market during the forecast period.
The rise in distributed power generation is a major factor hindering the growth of the market. Distributed power generation refers to power generation by utilizing a variety of power and storage systems for the purpose of consumption at or near the site of generation. For residential use, these systems may be a few kilowatts (kW), while for commercial and industrial use, they may be tens of megawatts (MW). Distributed power generation offers several benefits, such as low-cost electricity, improved reliability, and lower environmental consequences compared with traditional power generation technologies.
Distributed power generation systems reduce the dependency on T and D grids and thereby eliminate the need for UPS systems. Therefore, a rise in distributed power generation will continue to limit the demand for UPS and will act as a barrier to the growth of the global market during the forecast period.
