Temporary Power Global Market Report 2025

The temporary power market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $7.23 billion in 2024 to $8.1 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.1%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing construction activities, rapid industrialization, natural disasters, events and entertainment industry, infrastructure development.

The temporary power market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $13.37 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to renewable energy integration, remote and off-grid areas development, smart cities initiatives, emergency preparedness. Major trends in the forecast period include digitization and smart technologies, increasing demand for sustainable solutions, focus on grid resilience, adoption of modular power systems, market consolidation and strategic partnerships.

The forecast of 13.3% growth over the next five years reflects a modest reduction of 0.3% from the previous estimate for this market. This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. Rising tariffs on mobile power equipment, trailers, and quick-connect systems may make temporary power solutions more expensive during disaster recovery or event-based applications. The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.

The growing construction activity is expected to fuel the expansion of the temporary power market. The construction industry encompasses a wide range of operations, including infrastructure development, repair, renovation, and maintenance. Rapid industrialization and urbanization have led to increased construction projects. Temporary power solutions are essential for providing utilities such as electricity and water to support construction and building activities. For example, in March 2023, Oxford Economics, a UK-based economic information services firm, projected that the global value of construction work would increase from $9.7 trillion in 2022 to $13.9 trillion by 2037, driven by key construction markets in China, the U.S., and India. As a result, the rising construction activity is propelling the growth of the temporary power market.

The growing reliance on renewable energy sources is expected to drive the expansion of the temporary power market in the coming years. Renewable energy refers to power generated from naturally replenishable resources that do not deplete with use. Temporary power plays a crucial role in the renewable energy sector by ensuring wind turbines remain operational and by providing backup power when renewable energy sources are unavailable. For example, in July 2024, data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) revealed that renewable energy consumption in the U.S. increased by 2% from 2022, reaching a record 8.2 quads in 2023. This growth was mainly fueled by increased biofuel use in transportation and solar energy for electricity generation, although wind energy consumption saw its first decline in 25 years. Consequently, the rising dependence on renewable energy sources is contributing to the growth of the temporary power market.

Technological advancements have become a key trend gaining traction in the temporary power market, with major companies focusing on providing cutting-edge solutions to strengthen their market position. For example, in September 2022, Jackery Inc., a U.S.-based provider of innovative portable power and green outdoor energy solutions, introduced the Solar Generator 1000 Pro. This system includes four SolarSaga 200W Solar Panels and the Jackery Explorer 1000 Pro Portable Power Station, allowing it to charge up to 8 devices simultaneously through AC, DC, and USB ports. The Solar Generator 1000 Pro also boasts fast charging capabilities, fully charging in just 1.8 hours using an AC outlet.

Temporary power refers to a service designed to supply electricity during construction or restoration operations. The primary goal of temporary electricity is to ensure the continuous operation of a site, even in the absence of utility power. It finds applications in plants and buildings for tasks such as illuminating construction sites, operating job-site trailers, powering irrigation facilities, and controlling various devices.

The principal categories of perforating guns include expendable, semi-expendable, and retrievable types. Expendable guns are commonly employed in situations where wellbore restrictions allow only limited access, such as through-tubing applications. Upon firing, a perforating gun assembly disintegrates, thereby reducing the volume and dimensions of the retrieved components. Various carrier types, such as hollow carriers, expandable shaped charged guns, and others, utilize explosive substances like cyclotrimethylene trinitramine (RDX), cyclotetramethylene trinitramine (HMX), and hexanitrosilbene (HNS), with both high and low pressure applications, whether onshore or offshore.

The sharp rise in U.S. tariffs and the ensuing trade tensions in spring 2025 are having a notable impact on the utilities sector, particularly across power generation, grid modernization, and renewable energy initiatives. Increased duties on imported equipment such as turbines, transformers, solar panels, and battery storage systems are driving up both capital and operational expenses for utility companies, prompting many to delay projects or pass higher costs on to consumers through increased energy rates. The water and waste management sectors are similarly affected, as tariffs inflate the cost of essential machinery, piping, and treatment technologies. Moreover, retaliatory tariffs from key trading partners have disrupted the supply of critical raw materials - such as rare earth elements vital for clean energy technologies - posing further challenges to the shift toward sustainable energy. In response, the sector is increasingly focusing on domestic procurement, digital transformation, and efficiency-enhancing innovations to control rising costs while safeguarding energy reliability and meeting regulatory demands.
