According to the International Energy Agency's (IEA) Electricity Market Report 2022, global electricity demand grew by 6% in 2021 after a slight decline in 2020. It was the largest percentage increase since the 2010 financial crisis and the largest annual earnings in absolute terms (almost 1500 TWh).

For instance,

  • Under the Asia-Pacific region in India, as of March 2022, the power consumption stood at 128.47 billion units, which was higher than 120.63 billion units in March 2021.
  • Saudi Arabia’s electrical energy consumption rose by 4.23% year-on-year (YoY) to 301,600-gigawatt hour (GWh) in 2021, compared to 289,330 GWh in 2020, data from the General Authority for Statistics (GASTAT) showed. Additionally, total electric energy production rose 3% YoY to about 358,640 GWh in 2021.
  • China Electricity Council, the power demand increased to 8,673 TWh in 2022 and rose about 3.6% from the previous year.

In addition, economic recovery, severe weather, and a colder-than-average winter led to an increase in global electricity demand in 2021. The demand was mainly driven by the industry sector, commercial, service, and residential sectors, significantly contributing to global electricity demand globe. Therefore, the market for pad-mounted switchgear is expected to rise in the upcoming years.

Investment in Renewable Energy

The global pad-mounted switchgear market is anticipated to improve due to the increasing investments in developing renewable energy sources, favorable government laws, and subsidies to support new technologies across the region. Countries including India, China, United States, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Australia, and Japan among others are rising their investment in the renewable energy industry and focusing on clean energy & declining carbon emission by the end of 2050, as per the Paris Agreement.

For instance,

  • In March 2023, in Australia, the Clean Energy Council announced in its quarterly report that USD 2.8 billion was invested in renewable energy generation and storage projects in the fourth quarter of 2022. In addition, the Australian Labor government decided to invest USD 13 billion in the restoration and modernization of the national electricity grid. It aims to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 43% by 2030 and reach zero by 2050.
  • In February 2023, India invested around USD 4.3 billion in clean energy including green electricity, green hydrogen, and build irrigation systems for farming & drinking water among others across the country. India aimed to develop huge solar projects in the Himalayas region of Ladakh and produce green hydrogen. Additionally, the union government has implemented various programs for green fuel, green energy, green farming, green mobility, green buildings, green equipment, and policies for efficient use of energy.
  • In November 2022, the United States and the United Arab Emirates signed USD 100 billion investment & planned to produce more than 100 gigawatts of clean energy. The UAE-US partnership to accelerate clean energy enables climate action while improving global energy security and affordability for the people of the UAE, the US, and the nations around the world.
  • In 2017, United Arab Emirates invested USD 163 billion in renewables projects across the country. The country’s energy mix by 2050 comprises 44% from renewables, 38% from gas, 12% from clean fossils, and six percent from nuclear energy. Additionally, the plan aimed to increase usage efficiency by 40% and increase clean-energy contributions to 50%.

Therefore, the use of switching equipment would increase as efforts to minimize carbon emissions and consumer knowledge of the advantages of renewable energy production grew. The construction of new T&D lines by bulk power generation facilities using onshore and offshore solar, wind, and hydro sources is anticipated to drive both the adoption of switchgear components and the demand for pad-mounted switchgear across the globe.

Challenges: Growing Competition from Un-organized Sectors

The unorganized sector of switchgear has grown steadily.
