Covid-19 Analysis

According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), owing to the outbreak of novel coronavirus (COVID-19), the global economy shrunk by 3.0% in 2020. Many countries are under strict lockdown, which have forced several sectors to shut down their operations. This has halted manufacturing activities and reduced the demand and production of power rental equipment.

According to the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), the micro, small, & medium enterprises (MSME) sector across developing economies, such as India, has been worst affected due to the COVID-19 outbreak and the lockdown imposed thereafter. This is expected to decline the demand for power rental equipment from various end-use industries such as oil & gas, events, construction, mining, and manufacturing. In addition, in the second half of 2020, some countries began to lift restrictions and gradually started business operations in various sectors. Even with the gradual lifting of the lockdown, it is expected to be challenging for the manufacturing sector to get back to normal working conditions. This is expected to subsequently affect the power rental market growth in the coming years.

According to the UNIDO, 30.0–70.0% of pre-COVID-19 workforce of various manufacturing industries such as automotive, building & construction, and mining have migrated back to their hometowns due to uncertainties and loss of income during the lockdown. This unavailability or less availability of workforce is expected to directly affect production activities of these industries, thereby resulting in decline in demand for power rental equipment. This is expected to decline growth of the market during the forecast period.

The outbreak of COVID-19 across the world in the first half of 2020 forced multiple countries into complete lockdown. Since governments and local authorities issued stringent guidelines, all nonessential operations were halted. This adversely affected the power rental market, owing to suspension of activities of various end-use industries. In addition, production and supply chain delays are expected to pose a short-term challenge to the power rental market, since end-user industries are still not operating at their full capacity. However, many companies have turned this crisis into an opportunity to offer services to the society. For instance, Cummins converted its air filter manufacturing facility into a respirator (filtration material for face masks) manufacturing unit.
