The Switchgear and Switchboard Apparatus market analysis and report forecasts market growth by revenue at global, regional & country levels and provides an analysis of the latest trends and growth opportunities from 2018 to 2028.
The medium voltage (2-36 kV) segment is estimated to witness significant growth during the forecast period. In the current era of automation and technology, a major portion of everyday operations in residential, commercial, or industrial settings relies on a steady and dependable power supply. In addition, one of the main reasons that machinery, including servo motors and motor starters, as well as other infrastructure, operate inefficiently is a fluctuating power supply.
Customised Report as per your requirements!
The medium voltage (2-36 kV) segment was the largest segment and was valued at USD 34.98 billion in 2018. Moreover, the ability of electric equipment to withstand surges in electricity demand is limited, meaning that any significant changes will significantly reduce its efficiency. In addition, medium-voltage switchgear is made especially to stabilize any erratic power flow. Furthermore, by managing, metering, and regulating the flow of power within the distribution management system, it shields the networked devices. In addition, in industrial, commercial, and utility systems comprising generators, motors, feeder circuits, transmission and distribution lines, and other medium-voltage power equipment, medium-voltage offer centralized control and protection. Hence, such factors are fuelling the growth of this segment which in turn drives Switchgear and Switchboard Apparatus market growth during the forecast period.
Based on the type, the market has been segmented into GIS (gas insulated switchgear), AIS (air insulated switchgear) and others. The GIS (gas insulated switchgear)?segment will account for the largest share of this segment. This segment is a type of switchgear used to control, protect, and isolate electrical equipment in power transmission and distribution systems. In addition, it uses gas as an insulating medium instead of air, which allows for more compact and efficient designs. Moreover, the use of GIS has become increasingly popular in the global market due to its numerous benefits, such as high reliability, low maintenance, and space-saving design. Hence, such factors are fuelling the growth of this segment which in turn drives Switchgear and Switchboard Apparatus market growth during the forecast period.

Switchgear and switchboard apparatus are an important part of power T&D networks worldwide. In addition, the growing demand for power from end-users across all sectors will require the expansion of these networks, which will fuel the demand .Furthermore, the main factors contributing to the rise in power demand are the increase in the global population and urbanization, which, in turn, will lead to rapid growth in industrialization.
Moreover, these factors will result in an exponential increase in the demand for electricity. In addition, many remote and rural areas, especially in Asian and sub-Saharan African countries, have limited access to electricity. Therefore, some countries have already started taking measures by planning to increase the number of power generation and electrification grids in the coming years. Hence, these efforts in increasing grid connectivity and meeting the growing demand for electricity will drive the switchgear and switchboard apparatus growth during the forecast period.
The market is expanding rapidly with advancements in infrastructure and manufacturing facilities. In addition, smart play an important part in the distribution of energy to residential areas. Furthermore, the adoption of intelligent power distribution equipment, such as smart, is critical to ensure better performance, power continuity, and resource optimization while reducing transmission, operation, and maintenance costs.
Moreover, new flexible, energy-efficient, and future-proof. For example, ABB smart switchgear provides state-of-the-art technology that is simple to use and install, enabling both immediate investment and operational savings as well as simple future upgrades. Hence, such factors are positively impacting the market. Therefore, it is expected to drive the switchgear and switchboard apparatus growth during the forecast period.
Stainless steel, aluminum, copper, and steel are the main raw materials that are used in production. In addition, all vendors invest heavily in procuring these raw materials. Furthermore, volatility in the prices of copper and aluminum, as well as other necessary raw materials, such as iron, resin, epoxy resin, fuel, and energy, lead to significant fluctuations in the cost of production and revenue for switchgear and switchboard apparatus manufacturers.
Moreover, companies try to recover the fluctuations in the cost of metals via negotiated price changes in the final product. Thus, when raw material prices escalate, companies can expect a rise in their gross profit margins only if they can increase the final selling price to recover the increase in the cost of raw materials, provided there is enough demand for the product. Hence, fluctuations in raw material prices are anticipated to hinder the growth of the switchgear & switchboard apparatus market during the forecast period.
