The current demand for electricity far outstrips supply causing frequent blackouts in Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania, yet significant increases in demand are expected during the forecast period. Consequently, major potential exists to sell diesel generators in East Africa. However, the exploitation of recent gas field finds is expected to significantly change the energy landscape across the region. This research service focuses on diesel gensets used for both primary and standby applications. The study covers market challenges; drivers and restraints; market share and competitive analysis; end-user analysis; and forecasts and trends. The forecast period used for analysis is 2014 to 2018 with a base year of 2013.
