Report Description
Low Voltage Switchgear Market Outlook 2031:
The global low voltage switchgear market size was valued at USD 71.21 Billion in 2022 and is projected to reach USD 115.30 Billion by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period 2023 - 2031. The market growth is attributed to rising investment in renewable energy.
Three types of switchgear such as low-voltage, medium-voltage, and high-voltage are used in various industries. Low voltage switchgear is a three-phase power distribution product. It is designed to supply electric power at voltages up to 1,000 volts and current up to 6,000 amps. Metal-clad switchgear is enclosed with two different types of metals and offers medium-voltage capacity.
In addition, high-voltage switchgear deals with a voltage above 36KV. Industrialization and urbanization require continuous electricity supply, and the reliability of the electricity depends on the performance of switchgear. The production of energy is the basic need for the rural and urban areas development. Many industries use digital switchgear for better efficiency.
Digital switchgear uses collected information to analyze the performance of current levels, temperature, operating cycles, and load levels that aid in improving the performance and reliability of switchgear. Smart switchgear allows grid optimization, improved quality, and reduces both transmission and operating losses.
According to World Health Organization (WHO) the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the demand and supply of the low voltage switchgear market. Adverse situations similar to lockdowns across the globe, mess in the supply chain and oscillating supply of raw materials enforced the manufacturers to shut down production leading to a decline in market growth.
Low Voltage Switchgear Market Trends, Drivers, Restraints, and Opportunities
- Rising inclination towards digital low voltage switchgear is expected to boost the market during the forecast period.
