Market Analysis

Switchgear Monitoring Market size is projected to reach USD 2.16 Billion by 2024 from an estimated USD 1.52 billion, with a CAGR of 7.86% during the forecast period.

Multiple Factors Contributing to Market Growth

Rising power consumption, desire for secure electrical distribution systems, and expanding investments in renewable energy sources are the primary drivers driving the worldwide switchgear monitoring market's growth. The power sector is experiencing a surge in demand for switchgear as investments in transmission and distribution networks expand. According to the OECD, cumulative power sector investment from 2017 to 2040 will be around USD 5.9 trillion for transmission and USD 2.1 trillion for distribution networks. As a result, demand for switchgear monitoring systems is expected to rise during the forecast period.

 

Furthermore, the worldwide switchgear monitoring market is expected to expand rapidly during the forecast period due to an increase in the usage of renewable energy sources. According to the IEA, renewable energy sources account for the majority of investment in power generation, accounting for around USD 350 billion per year. Countries all over the world are changing their focus to renewable energy generation. For example, the Chinese government planned to invest USD 360 billion in renewable energy in 2020, increasing demand for switchgear in the country. The global expansion of data centers will provide an opportunity for the switchgear monitoring market. 

 

 

Regional Analysis

APAC to Dominate the Global Market
