The power cables segment is set to exceed over USD 290 billion by 2032, owing to their extensive applications in low rated capacity networks. The demand for power cables will be driven by government initiatives to enhance existing transmission capacities through the deployment of sustainable and energy-efficient components. In addition, regulatory efforts focusing on replacing conventional power generating systems with a variety of high-capacity clean energy sources will augment the business landscape.
Based on voltage, the low voltage wire and cable market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of more than 7.6% through 2032. This growth is attributed to the wide applicability of low-voltage wires and cables across consumer electronics, communication, automotive, and secondary power distribution applications. Additionally, the increasing demand for reliable, cost-effective electricity supply, uninterrupted coupled with the surging electronics and communication industry will positively impact the market size.
Asia Pacific wire and cable market is expected to reach over USD 325 billion by 2032. Rising electricity demand coupled with inadequate grid infrastructure in key geographies will drive the demand for advanced transmission and distribution networks across the region. Increasing investments and funding from various financial institutions comprising of World Bank and the IFC toward regional electrification initiatives will positively impact the business outlook.
The push for renewable energy sources such as wind, solar, and hydroelectric power is driving demand for specialized cables capable of withstanding extreme environmental conditions and efficiently transmitting electricity over long distances. Significant investments in upgrading the U.S. power grid to enhance reliability, integrate renewable energy sources, and improve energy efficiency are boosting demand for advanced cable solutions, including high-voltage direct current (HVDC) cables and smart grid-compatible cables.
