Kenya Diesel Gensets market size is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 3.9% during 2023-2029F
The Kenya diesel genset market was majorly driven by the power demand gap caused by the country's inadequate grid infrastructure owing to approximately 15 million of the country's population did not have access to electricity in 2020, thereby relying primarily on diesel gensets for power requirements.
The diesel genset market witnessed a decline in 2020 due to the global pandemic leading to a total economic shutdown and a temporary halt in major operations in many sectors to curb the spread of the virus.

The rising infrastructure development in the country including transportation, commercial complexes etc. with upcoming projects for instance Nairobi Commuter Rail project, the Nairobi-Nakuru Highway project, the Lamu Port-South Sudan-Ethiopia Transport (LAPSSET) corridor (with the first 3 berths complete) would generate more power demand which is one of the major reasons for the growth of diesel genset market in Kenya.
Moreover, five major ports with a cost of USD 10 billion and with 67% of the proposed hotel rooms under construction and the remaining 33% in the planning stage would further create lucrative opportunities for the diesel genset market during the forecast period.
