Market Overview 

Datacentres Register Strong Demand for UPS 

A severe credit crunch has hit western European economies. The lack of available
finances is affecting investment, paralleled by falling consumer spending,
rising unemployment and declining industrial output. With many end-user sectors
reeling, demand for UPS equipment has also fallen and revenue growth is likely
to be affected for the next two years, at least. However, spending in certain
applications such as power generation, transportation and healthcare, among
others, has been less affected. Public and infrastructure applications are set
to sustain the UPS market across the region during this turbulent period. 

Multi-pronged Approach Critical to Ride out Economic Downturn and Subsequent
Fall in Demand 

The financial crisis and subsequent recession have dampened demand for UPS
systems from various applications such as industries, datacentres, offices and
commercial buildings among others. Industrial output is on the decline; the
automotive industry is experiencing severe losses and oil prices are falling,
leading to job losses, plant closures, project cancellations and lower
investment. With little or negative growth in the major end-user applications
for UPS systems, the demand for the equipment is also anticipated to suffer.
"Following the economic downturn, the demand for UPS systems, especially from
industrial and commercial applications, has taken a hit," explains the analyst.
"Moreover, demand from other applications such as banking and financial services
is declining, due to cost cutting measures, negatively impacting the uptake of
UPS equipment by these sectors."
