Substation Market size to exceed USD 130bn by 2027

Published Date: October 12, 2021

Global Substation Market size is anticipated to surpass USD 130 billion by 2027, as reported in the latest study by Global Market Insights Inc.

Global substation industry will witness growth on account of enhanced product configurations along with growing demand for reliable and secure electrical installations across utility, commercial, residential, and industrial establishment. A substation is an integral part of an electricity generation, transmission & distribution system which transforms high voltage to low voltage or vice versa. The rapid integration of sustainable energy infrastructure coupled with rising electricity and peak load demand will augment the overall industry size.

Rapid inclination of suppliers & manufacturers toward safe and reliable electricity generation will boost the global substation market share

Continuous development of transport capacity, rapid disaster response, and temporary load bearing will positively influence the adoption of conventional substation units. However, high cost of installation along with maintenance issues can hinder the product penetration. Moreover, in recent years, prominence of digital substation units has increased substantially owing to the interoperability, reliability & availability, ease of configuration, installation smart grid, communication capabilities, and reduction in copper cabling.
