Gas-insulated Switchgear Market: Surging government initiatives to improve electricity access in rural areas


According to the new market research report "Gas-insulated Switchgear Market by Voltage Rating, Insulation Type, Installation (Indoor, Outdoor), End User (Transmission Utility, Distribution Utility, Generation Utility, Railways & Metros, Industry & OEM), and Region - Global Forecast to 2025",published by MarketsandMarkets™, is projected to grow from USD 16.9 billion in 2020 to USD 26.5 billion by 2025, at a CAGR of 9.5%.

The SF6segment is anticipated to constitute the majority of the Gas-insulated Switchgear Market share. A gas-insulated switchgear uses the dielectric gas sulfur hexafluoride, also known as SF6, at moderate pressure for phase-to-phase and phase-to-ground insulation. High-voltage conductors, interrupters, circuit breakers, switches, voltage transformers, and current transformers are in SF6 inside a metal enclosure.

A global increase in the demand for electricity is expected to drive the demand for gas-insulated switchgears across various sectors, such as the power distribution utility, power transmission utility, and power generation utility. Due to COVID-19, the US has a negative growth rate of -2.45% in the manufacturing sector in the first quarter when compared to China’s -3.25%. India, Japan, and Europe registered a negative growth of -3.98%, 2.77%, and -2.89%, respectively, in their manufacturing sectors.

The power transmission utility segment is expected to be the most significant Gas-insulated Switchgear Market
The power transmission segment has the largest share of the Gas-insulated Switchgear Market owing to the global growth in the production and consumption of electricity. Transmission utilities own and operate the transmission system. Thus, the growing demand for power will necessitate the expansion of the transmission network, thereby enhancing the demand for electrical components, e.g., gas-insulated switchgears. But due to COVID-19 lockdowns, utilities are at a standstill, which has resulted in losses for companies. This has a negative impact on the growth of the Gas-insulated Switchgear Market.

The SF6 segment is expected to be the largest Gas-insulated Switchgear Market
The SF6 segment is expected to have the largest market share during the forecast period. SF6-filled gas-insulated switchgears are preferred over air-insulated switchgears where space is a constraint because air-insulated switchgears require meters of air as an insulation medium to do what SF6-filled switchgears can do in centimeters. Therefore, SF6-filled gas-insulated switchgears can be 10 times smaller than air-insulated switchgears. A majority of the existing and new gas-insulated switchgears use SF6 gas as the dielectric medium. Thus, the demand for gas-insulated switchgears is expected to grow due to the space constraints in urban areas.

Asia Pacific is expected to dominate the global Gas-insulated Switchgear Market
In this report, the Gas-insulated Switchgear Market has been analyzed for 5 regions, namely Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Middle East & Africa, South America. Asia Pacific is expected to lead the market during the forecast period.

The rapid increase in the demand for electricity and an increase in the power generation capacity in developing countries such as India and China, along with the growth in industrial and commercial sectors, will lead to an increase in the number of substations. Growth in the number of substations will propel the demand for gas-insulated switchgears in Asia Pacific. However, COVID-19 has negatively impacted the power industry globally in the past 2 months. The demand curve for electricity has taken up new shapes, mainly in those countries where the impact of COVID-19 is high. The decreasing demand for electricity is caused by lockdowns across countries to mitigate the spread of the virus. This will have a negative impact on the growth of the Gas-insulated Switchgear Market for a considerable period of time.

Pad-Mounted Switchgear Market: Increasing Development in Transmission & Distribution Infrastructure


The global pad-mounted switchgear market is projected to reach USD 7.2 billion by 2024 from an estimated market size of USD 5.5 billion in 2019, at a CAGR of 5.4% during the forecast period. The factors driving the market include increasing investments in distribution infrastructure to meet the growing electricity demand along with investments in underground distribution due to functional and aesthetic advantages. For high-priority loads such as commercial and industrial loads, which require high reliability, underground cables with pad-mounted switchgears are used.

The solid dielectric segment is expected to be the fastest growing segment in the pad-mounted switchgear market
The solid dielectric segment is expected to grow at the highest rate during the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to the increased demand for SF6 alternatives in response to the stringent restrictions imposed on the use of SF6. In the US, which holds the largest market share in the North American market, many utilities such as PG&E have proper plans in place to carry out the replacement of SF6 equipment. In solid dielectric switchgears, epoxy is used as the insulating medium, which is environmentally safe and inert.


The industrial segment is expected to hold the largest share of the pad-mounted switchgear market
The industrial segment is expected to be the largest pad-mounted switchgear market, by application, during the forecast period.  Industrial loads are high-priority loads that face major revenue loss in the event of power loss. The demand for reliable and continuous power supply is driving the utilities to adopt underground distribution systems increasingly. It is likely to drive the demand for pad-mounted switchgears in industrial applications.

Europe is expected to dominate the global pad-mounted switchgear market
The growing demand for underground distribution and its preference for the overhead lines in many parts of Europe are the driving factors for the growth of European pad-mounted switchgear market. Many countries, such as the Netherlands, have a 100% underground distribution network. Even in other European countries, in urban areas and densely populated areas, it is a common practice to adopt an underground distribution system. Investments in distribution networks are on the rise in response to the increased adoption of renewable energy. The increased investments in distribution networks are expected to drive the European pad-mounted switchgear market.


The major players in the global pad-mounted switchgear market include Eaton (Ireland), Hubbell (US), G&W Electric (US), Federal Pacific (US), S&C Electric (US), ABB (Switzerland), Powell (US), and EEIC (Saudi Arabia).
