LONDON, November 11 /PRNewswire/ --

The global financial turmoil of the past few months has interrupted the outstanding growth pattern of the Russian Generator Set market, making the future hard to predict. The question now is, Are we experiencing a hiccup or is this stall going to define this market in the future?

Certainly, the trend until this summer has been strong market growth. However, since the summer, Russia, like other economies, is feeling the fallout of the global economic recession, which might significantly affect the market. Although, the demand in the Russian Generator Set market, principally coming from the industrial and commercial segments, will remain strong in spite of the financial crisis, Frost Sullivan predicts that there is likely to be a slowdown in the number of new orders. The demand will still exist with current consumers, but manufacturers should expect a challenge in generating new orders.

The Energy Power Systems Group at Frost Sullivan is pleased to announce its 2008 Quarterly Analyst Briefing Presentation on the Russian Generator Set market to be held on 20th November 2008, at 3 pm GMT.

This purpose of this briefing is to give an insight into what market trends are expected to emerge in the upcoming years and examine their impact on different applications and output ranges of the Russian Generator Set (Gen-sets) market.

Major global Gen-sets manufacturers operating in Russia will find this briefing particularly useful. Furthermore, it will be beneficial for all firms in the energy industry such as utilities, and power generation, which consider Russia and its energy sector as a strong investment candidate.

The rise of the Russian economy, since the beginning of this decade, had resulted in an outstanding growth in the Russian generator sets market. However, as the global economic crisis has reached the CIS market, the impact of the slowdown on the gen-sets demand remains a mystery to the manufacturers, especially in the medium and long run. Presently, companies are in a state of uncertainty with regards to global economic turmoil and its potential impact on the Russian gen-sets market, observes Frost Sullivan Research Analyst Maciej Jeziorski.
