UPS Market to See Incredible Growth During 2025
The
dominance of a handful of large players renders stiff competition in
the global
UPS market, says Transparency Market Research in a new
report. Keen players are striving to launch technologically advanced
products to stay competitive in this market which is at a mature
stage.
Key
participants in the global UPS market to name a few are Eaton
Corporation Plc., Emerson Electric, Uninterruptible Power Supplies
Ltd., Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, Riello Elettronica, Schneider
Electric SE (APC), Legrand, Vertiv Co., and ABB Limited.
A
report by Transparency Market Research envisages the global UPS
market to peg a CAGR of 7.5% between 2017 and 2025, for the market to
become worth US$9,881.9 mn by the end of 2025 from US$5,201.9 mn in
2016.
Data
center and facility application segment led the UPS market in 2016 in
terms of revenue. Going ahead, the segment is expected to clock a
significant 7.5% CAGR between 2017 and 2025. Based on kVA range, in
2016, 20.1-60 kVA range segment accounted for the leading revenue
contribution mainly because of its high adoption in data centers. On
the other hand, the segment of less than 5kVA segment is predicted to
expand at a significant CAGR from 2017 to 2025.
Geography-wise,
Europe followed by North America were the leading revenue generating
regions in 2016. These regions are expected to hold on to maintain
their positions over the forecast period.
Generation
of Massive Volume of Mobile Data Benefits Market
Majorly
fuelling the global UPS market is the increasing frequency of power
fluctuations and growth in the number of data centers and cloud
storage utilization capacity. Natural causes, short circuits as well
as manmade outages are the some of the key factors for power
fluctuations that can cause equipment degradation over a period or
instantaneous loss of data stored on the equipment. This necessitates
power backup, especially in emerging economies that do not have
reliable energy infrastructure.
Power
backup in small and large scale industries protects sensitive
equipment from getting damaged in the event of fluctuations in the
power grid. UPS systems are crucial for hospitals wherein power
fluctuations can put patients’ life in danger. UPS systems are also
crucial for factories to prevent accidents, loss of downtime.
At
present, expansion of wireless internet connectivity and the
incessant penetration of smartphones have led to generation of
massive volumes of data thus leading to the need for mega capacity
data centers. Data centers require continuous power supply to protect
operational data, IT equipment and to keep cooling systems running.
Emerging economies such as China and India have emerged as preferred
destinations for setting up data centers due to the advantage of
reliable infrastructure at low costs. Global mobile service
providers are constructing mega capacity data centers in these
destinations to manage rapidly-increasing data traffic. As a result,
Asia Pacific is emerging to be a key market for UPS for power backup
needs of these establishments.

Lastly,
advancements in UPS systems leading to the development of
transformer-less UPS, lithium-ion technology and modular UPS are
expected to positively influence the market’s growth.
High
Installation and High Maintenance Costs Crimps Growth
However,
high installation and maintenance cost of UPS is proving to be a
challenge to the market’s growth. Nonetheless, market players are
striving to add flexible, energy efficient and high load capacity
features in UPS.
