Given your rich experience over the years, share some insights about the developments in the Power Generators and Related Equipment manufacturing industry in India in the last five years? What opportunities have been created for the players in this domain?
Various initiatives such as ‘Housing for All’, ‘Smart Cities Mission’, upcoming expressways/corridors, airports, seaports as planned in the Union Budget 2021 show that the Infrastructure sector remains the biggest focus area for the Government of India. With an anticipated growth at a CAGR of approximately 7% during 2021-2025, we foresee a huge potential in the sector. The infrastructure sector that includes bridges, dams, roads, tunnels, airports, and urban infrastructure development, calls for an uninterrupted power source that is backed by a backup generator.

The rapid speed of digitization prompted by Covid-19, coupled with the rise in the number of data-consuming smart devices, the need for high-speed internet, cloud computing, has fueled a massive growth of data centers (DC) in India. Various Government policies on data localization and privacy, lower labor cost, and growing domestic demand have all made India a global destination for DCs. These data centers require a high standard of infrastructure backed up by a very reliable power source. Most of the DCs are now of Tier III or TIER IV types, and it requires DG systems to meet their TIER requirements.
