Genstat

Clear, current and accurate view of opportunity for diesel generator sets in 200+ countries

Relevant, timely and reliable opportunity data for producers of diesel generator sets

The Data Challenge

For producers of diesel generator sets, building a picture of market opportunity can be challenging, with much detective work through multiple sources of conflicting data.

It’s possible to commission industry reports but although often insightful, these only show a snapshot in time, are usually based on analysis of samples and can quickly become dated and lose relevance.

Reports based on engine producers are also available, and while these are a useful piece of the puzzle, they do not indicate where completed generator sets are sold.

Genstat

For more than 30 years, Parkinson Associates have produced an industry opportunity database, Genstat, which has been developed specifically for diesel generator set producers. Produced quarterly, Genstat is the definitive source of reliable opportunity data for diesel generator sets, with imports, exports, production and consumption for more than 200 countries in 12 power bands. Updates are available within four months from the end of each data timeframe, which makes Genstat both current and relevant.

Genstat is based on in-depth analysis of trade statistics from more than 25 countries, representing more than 95% of world shipments.

This, combined with our in-house knowledge of industry production, alongside regular discussion with users, has produced overall data accuracy levels validated by users as high as 98%.
