The global Wires And Cables market size is expected to be worth around US$ 270.16 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Vision Research Reports.
The global Wires And Cables market size was valued at US$ 193.20 billion in 2020 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 4.10% during forecast period 2021 to 2030.
Growth Factors
Wires and cables are one of the essential components of infrastructure development across the world. The growing emphasis on investments and government initiatives to generate power from renewable sources has enforced the adoption of wires and cables across the globe. Increasing funds in the upgradation of infrastructure and the demand for refined power transmission and distribution systems are the key factors driving the market over the forecast period.
Infrastructure development, modernization, and upgradation of infrastructure such as railways, tunnels, tunnel-lighting and signaling; commercial, residential, and industrial buildings; and implementation of smart grid technology is expected to drive the global market. Sectors such as defense, aerospace, and telecom are moving towards new infrastructure and construction, which increases the demand for cables and wires across the globe. Technological upgrades require various services, such as internet access and communication. Expansions and upgrades will directly increase the demand for cables such as communication cables, instrumentation cables, Ethernet cables, and others.
The government initiatives in rural electrification also play a vital role in the growth of the overall market. Rural electrification entails actions, including setting electricity infrastructure, improving communication, and providing connectivity to households. Rural electrification is anticipated to drive the demand for wires and cables in the coming years. For instance, according to the Ministry of Power - Government of India, 26.3 million homes below the poverty line have been electrified under the Rural Electrification section of Deen Dayal Upadhyay Gram Jyoti Yojana (DDUGJY). Smart grids diminish the general cost incurred in traditional systems, including the operational cost encountered due to loss of power. It also lowers the pressure on energy prices and total customer bills. The Indian government, under the "Make in India" campaign, has targeted the installation of 130 million smart meters by 2021 under Smart City Initiatives. The installation was done at the consumer base, where the monthly consumption is above 200 units by 2019. There are various steps taken by the government in other countries, such as the U.S., to encourage the smart grid implementation.
Report Highlights
The low voltage segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2020, with around 43% market share, owing to the high usage of low voltage cables in building wires, LAN cables, appliance wires, distribution networks, and others. These wires and cables support the smart grids in delivering superior electric supplies and offer an improved provision of electric supply for end-use consumers. The energy and power sectors across the world are experiencing a rapid alteration. Most of the developing and developed countries are experiencing heavy demand for electricity and are moving towards the incorporation of large-scale renewable resources.
The high voltage wires and cables are used for transmission of electricity from 1,000 volts. These cables are coated with paper and oil, to avoid direct contact of the cables with an individual or any other material. The quality of high voltage cables depends upon the insulation material type used. The high demand for these cables from the end-users such as power distribution, oil and gas, telecom, aerospace, and defense is the major factor responsible for the growth of the high voltage cable market over the forecast period.
The overhead installation segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2020, with around 64% market share. The overhead installation technique is the most widely used approach across the world. The overhead approach of wires and cables is the easiest and cheapest form of installation. The overhead installation technique is mostly adopted in countries with a lower population. However, countries with a high risk of natural calamities such as earthquakes and floods tend to have overhead cable installation.
The underground installation segment is expected to expand at the highest CAGR over the forecast period. The underground cable installation lowers the maintenance costs, incurs fewer transmission losses, and hence, effortlessly sustains the power loads. The demand from various sectors such as commercial, residential, automotive, telecom, and energy and power industries are leading to expansion and upgradation of infrastructure, which in turn is anticipated to drive the demand for the wire & cables market. The developing countries such as India, China, Vietnam, amongst others are spending a significant portion of their GDP on infrastructure development.
The energy and power segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2020, with around 37% market share. Several technological upgrades such as shifting the old transmission lines to high/extra high voltage lines to avoid the transmission losses are been made in the electricity T&D ecosystem. These changes aim at making the ecosystem stable in contradiction of the alternating nature of renewable sources of energy. Moreover, the introduction of new methodologies such as synchronized charging of electric vehicles and net metering for solar homes have aggressively affected the utilities sector. However, the growing renewable power capacity and energy generation have further augmented the need of countries to interrelate their transmission systems. This link-up is expected to balance the power generation and demand through the export and import of electricity. With the rise in the generation of renewable energy, the electricity trade is anticipated to increase, thus resulting in the construction of high-capacity interconnection lines, in turn driving the market.
Building and construction segment is expected to expand at the highest CAGR of 5.0% over the forecast period. However, refurbishment in aging commercial, residential, industrial buildings, and new construction worldwide supports the growth of the market. Developing countries in the Middle East and Africa, South America, and the Asia Pacific region are undertaking new construction infrastructures, including rail signaling, rail tunneling, and expansion in power generation and distribution. Further, owing to factors including infrastructure development, economic growth in developing countries, and increasing internet penetration, the wire and cable market is anticipated to grow over the forecast period.
Asia Pacific accounted for the largest revenue share in the wires and cables industry in 2020, with a 37.2% market share. The demand for wires and cables is observed to be stable in North America; however, the European region is expected to grow over the forecast period owing to initiatives such as Digital Agendas for Europe 2025. In addition, the North American region has seen a vast increase in data consumption, which has resulted in investments by prominent telecommunication companies such as AT&T and Verizon in fiber networks. For instance, in April 2020, Belden Inc. developed new fiber solutions that allow data centers to create a reliable, robust, and high-performance infrastructure. These solutions include DCX Optical Distribution Frame, FiberExpress Flexible Ribbon Cable, 1.6 mm Multi-Fiber Trunks, and Fiber MPO Trunks. Thus, these significant investments in the IT and telecommunications sectors are expected to drive the overall market.
The market in Asia Pacific region is anticipated to expand at the highest CAGR of 4.7% over the forecast period. The growing demand for light, power, and communication is anticipated to fuel the market over the forecast period. The government initiatives such as “Make in India”, and “Go Green” policy is expected to drive the market in India. According to the Indian Electrical Equipment Industry Mission Plan 2012-2022, the government of India has planned to make the country one of the electrical equipment producers and obtain productivity of USD 100 billion by matching the exports and imports, hence, driving the demand for cables over the period 2012-2022.
