Press Release

Residential Generator Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.8% through 2030F

The global Residential Generator Market is expected to be led by North America, driven by Rising Energy Consumption and Preference for Energy Independence during the forecast period 2026-2030F


According to TechSci Research report, “Residential Generator Market - Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F, The Global Residential Generator Market was valued at USD 6.3 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 8.4 billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 4.8% through 2030. As homes become more dependent on smart appliances, entertainment systems, and home offices, the demand for consistent and reliable power is rising. A power outage can disrupt daily life, especially for those who work from home or rely heavily on technology. As a result, homeowners are investing more in backup generators to ensure continuous electricity supply for critical devices.

Furthermore, the rising focus on energy security and preparedness for natural disasters is driving market growth. With climate change increasing the frequency and severity of extreme weather events such as hurricanes, floods, and wildfires, many homeowners are prioritizing energy resilience. This trend is encouraging the adoption of residential generators, especially in regions most vulnerable to these events. Additionally, the rise of remote and off-grid living, driven by lifestyle choices and the desire for independence, is creating new demand for residential generators. In remote areas with limited or no access to a stable grid, generators provide a vital solution for reliable power. This shift toward off-grid living is further accelerating the growth of the residential generator market.

Based on Power Rating, ≤ 75 kVA segment dominated the Residential Generator Market in 2024 and maintain its leadership throughout the forecast period, due to its ideal power output for residential applications, balancing efficiency, affordability, and versatility. These generators are widely preferred by homeowners as they offer sufficient capacity to support essential household appliances during power outages, including lights, refrigerators, HVAC systems, and small electronic devices. The relatively low power rating makes these generators more cost-effective, both in terms of initial investment and operational costs, compared to higher power-rated models.

One of the key factors driving the dominance of the ≤ 75 kVA segment is the increasing frequency of power outages caused by extreme weather events, such as hurricanes, storms, and wildfires, which have become more prevalent due to climate change. These generators provide a reliable and efficient backup power solution for residential properties, particularly in areas with unstable electrical grids. Additionally, the growing demand for energy resilience and independence among homeowners has contributed to the popularity of smaller, more affordable backup systems.

Furthermore, technological advancements have made generators in this power rating range more efficient, quieter, and environmentally friendly, addressing common concerns around noise pollution and emissions. Many ≤ 75 kVA generators are now equipped with features like automatic transfer switches (ATS), which enable seamless power transfer during grid failures, and smart controls that allow users to monitor and manage their energy consumption remotely.

The compact size and portability of these generators also make them appealing to homeowners with limited space or those who may require mobile backup power solutions for outdoor activities or temporary housing. This versatility has expanded the market for ≤ 75 kVA generators beyond traditional residential settings, making them a popular choice in recreational, off-grid, and emergency situations.

Additionally, the ongoing shift toward sustainable energy solutions and the growing adoption of hybrid systems, which combine traditional generators with renewable energy sources like solar panels, further supports the dominance of the ≤ 75 kVA segment. These generators can easily be integrated into such systems, providing a supplementary power source during periods of low solar output or during off-grid living. Overall, the ≤ 75 kVA segment remains the leader in the residential generator market due to its optimal balance of performance, affordability, and convenience, addressing the diverse power needs of modern households while adapting to evolving technological, environmental, and market trends.

Asia Pacific is emerging as the fastest-growing region for the Residential Generator Market, driven by a combination of factors including rapid urbanization, unreliable power infrastructure, and an increasing frequency of natural disasters. Countries like India, China, and Southeast Asian nations are facing growing challenges related to frequent power outages, grid instability, and energy shortages, prompting many homeowners to invest in backup power solutions. As urban populations expand and energy consumption rises, the demand for reliable and uninterrupted power supply becomes critical, especially in areas prone to extreme weather events like monsoons, floods, and storms.

Additionally, the rising middle class in Asia Pacific is fueling the adoption of residential generators, as consumers seek enhanced comfort and convenience in their homes. With limited access to stable grid power in rural and remote areas, portable and small to medium-sized generators are becoming increasingly popular for off-grid living and outdoor activities.

Technological advancements have also played a role in boosting the market, with more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly generators being introduced to meet the growing demand for sustainable power solutions. Furthermore, favorable government policies and growing awareness around energy security and resilience are encouraging the adoption of residential generators in the region. The Asia Pacific market is poised to continue its rapid growth as these factors align with an expanding consumer base seeking reliable backup power.
