Based on technology, the conventional segment is expected to cross USD 13 billion by 2032, since Many substations in North America are traditional or conventional in design. Despite the growth of advanced technologies, there remains a significant base of conventional substations that require maintenance, upgrades, and expansion to meet rising demand and ensure reliability. This ongoing need for support and enhancement of existing conventional systems contributes to the market's substantial size.
Based on component, the electrical system segment is anticipated to grow with more than 4.8% CAGR through 2032, owing to growing need to upgrade electrical systems. This includes replacing outdated transformers, circuit breakers, and other key components with more efficient and reliable equipment. The continued emphasis on improving infrastructure supports the robust growth of the electrical system segment. The integration of smart grid technologies necessitates advanced electrical systems. Therefore, the increasing adoption of smart grids and the need for real-time monitoring and control are driving demand for these advanced electrical systems.
U.S. distribution substation market is anticipated to surpass USD 5.8 billion by 2032 since the integration of smart grid technologies is transforming the distribution network. Smart substations equipped with advanced monitoring, control, and automation systems are increasingly being deployed to improve grid management and reliability. The growing adoption of renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power, requires upgrades to distribution substations. These modernizations are necessary to handle the variable nature of renewable energy and integrate it effectively into the grid.
Similarly, in countries including Canada and Mexico, the electrification of various sectors, including transportation and heating, drives the demand for robust distribution networks. The expansion of electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure and other electrified systems also increases the need for enhanced substation capabilities.
