DUBLIN, Jan. 14, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

The "Variable Speed Generator Market by Type , Prime Mover, Technology, Power, End-User, Region - Global Forecast to 2022" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global variable speed generator market is projected to reach USD 8.36 Billion by 2022, growing at a CAGR of 7.63%, from an estimated USD 5.79 Billion in 2017.

This growth can be attributed to the increasing emphasis on alternative energy production across the globe, increasing government mandates over energy efficiency, and growing industrialization and urbanization.

On the basis of end user, the variable speed generator market is segmented into renewable power generation, hydroelectric power generation, marine and shipbuilding, oil & gas and mining, commercial and residential, defense, aerospace, co-generation, telecommunications, and industrial standby power. The commercial and residential segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This segment is primarily driven by the growing demand for efficient variable speed standby gensets for commercial and residential applications in Europe, Asia Pacific, and North America.

The variable speed generator market, by prime mover, is segmented into wind turbine, hydro turbine, gas and steam turbine, and internal combustion (IC) engine. The IC engine segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The increasing implementation of variable speed generators for aerospace and marine applications is expected to drive the market.

The variable speed generator market, by power rating, is segmented 100 kVA, 100 kVA-1 MVA, 1 MVA-25 MVA, and above 25 MVA. The 1 MVA-25 MVA segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR from 2017 to 2022. The increasing capacity addition in offshore wind projects and commercialization of high power rated permanent magnet synchronous generators will create new revenue pockets for this segment.

In this report, the variable speed generator market has been analyzed with respect to five regions, namely, North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, South America, and the Middle East & Africa.

Asia Pacific is estimated to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Factors such as increased power consumption; government mandates on energy efficiency; rising influx of renewable sources in the energy mix; and renovation, modernization, and upgradation of aging hydropower plants are to drive the variable speed generator market in the region.

High capital investment and limited re-investment could act as restraints for the variable speed generator market. The leading players in the market include ABB (Switzerland), GE (US), Siemens (Germany), Wartsila (Finland), Cummins (US), and Rolls Royce (UK). Contracts & agreements was the most commonly adopted strategy by the top players. This was followed by new product launches, expansions and investments, and mergers & acquisitions.
