Global Air Insulated Switchgear Market Forecast to 2029 with ABB, Siemens, General Electric, Schneider Electric, Eaton, Mitsubishi, and Toshiba Dominating


Dublin, June 05, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Global Air Insulated Switchgear Market by Installation (Indoor, Outdoor), Voltage (Low, Medium, High), Application (Transmission & Distribution Utilities, Industrial, Commercial & Residential, Transportation) and Region - Forecast to 2029" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global market for air insulated switchgear (AIS) is on a trajectory to reach USD 85.9 billion by 2029, a notable increase from the estimated USD 67.3 billion in 2024, with a steady CAGR of 5.0% spanning the period from 2024 to 2029

The AIS market is predominantly governed by well-established global leaders. Notable players in the AIS market include ABB (Switzerland), Siemens (Germany), General Electric (US), Schneider Electric (France), Eaton (Ireland), Mitsubishi Electric (Japan), Toshiba (Japan), and several others.

The global renewable energy sector is experiencing a substantial surge, with annual additions to renewable power capacity expected to average around 305 GW per year between 2021 and 2026, marking a nearly 60% increase compared to the previous five years. This growth is propelled by continuous governmental support in more than 130 countries, aggressive net-zero goals declared by nations representing nearly 90% of global GDP, and enhanced competitiveness of wind and solar PV technologies.

Renewable energy accounts for around 22% of global power generation, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA), renewable energy capacity is expected to more than double by 2030, growing by 7,300 gigawatts (GW) under countries' current policies, partly due to the rapid growth of variable renewable energy from solar photovoltaics and wind. Renewable integration is important for reducing carbon emissions and achieving a zero-carbon future, as the International Energy Agency estimates that most of the global electricity will need to be generated using renewables.

Outdoor segment, by installation, to be fastest growing market from 2024 to 2029.

Outdoor air insulated switchgear is a critical component of electrical power distribution systems, primarily used in transmission and sub-transmission sectors. These switchgear are designed to operate at high voltages, typically above 36kV, and are installed in outdoor substations, power plants, or along power distribution lines.

Air is used as an insulating medium, which is readily available and requires no special treatment, making it a cost-effective and low-maintenance solution for outdoor applications. However, outdoor air insulated switchgear is susceptible to environmental conditions such as dust, humidity, temperature, and vibrations, which can affect its performance and lifespan.

Low voltage segment, by voltage, to be the second-largest market from 2024 to 2029.

Low-voltage AIS play a critical role in safeguarding against overload currents, voltage surges, insulation breakdown, and emergency switching in residential and commercial settings, protecting electrical appliances and low-voltage machinery. They are commonly deployed in large commercial buildings, hospitals, industrial processes, refineries, and oil & gas facilities, ensuring the protection of various devices like motors and equipment.

Europe to be second-largest region in air insulated switchgear market.

In 2023, Europe secured the second-largest position in the AIS market, holding a share of 21.7% with a market valuation of USD 14.1 billion. The European AIS market is dissected by country, including the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and the Rest of Europe.

On February 2024, the European Commission (EU) is committed to reaching 'net zero' CO2 emissions by 2050. The Commission aims to establish a clear carbon accounting framework for utilization of captured CO2 as a resource, which would reflect the climate benefits of using CO2 as a resource in industrial processes. This helps to boost the uptake of sustainable carbon in industrial sectors.

The European Union is focusing on upgrading its aging power infrastructure to accommodate more renewable energy sources such as solar and wind. As part of this modernization, there is a shift from electromechanical systems to digital air insulated switchgear. This transition is expected to increase the demand for air insulated switchgear, given the advanced maturity of Europe's power generation, transmission, and distribution systems. Additionally, efforts are being made to enhance interconnections that will improve power trading and overall energy efficiency across the region.
