The rising adoption of smart grid technology is notably driving the market growth, although factors such as the volatility in raw material prices may impede the market growth. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
Key Driver
The rising adoption of smart grid technology is the key factor driving the market growth. The smart grid brings analog or digital information and computer-based remote control and automation to electricity networks. Smart grid systems are being increasingly deployed in many countries. A smart grid refers to an electricity grid that delivers an economical, sustainable, and secure supply of electricity by intelligently integrating the actions of all users, whether they are generators, consumers, or those capable of both in an efficient manner.
Rising investments in smart grids in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries and those in APAC are expected to be a significant factor in market growth during the forecast period due to the continuous growth in the demand for electricity in these regions. Moreover, the world is gradually moving toward the adoption of smart grids, which will trigger an immense demand for such accessories in the future. This will influence vendors to focus on the development of cables and accessories that can serve the smart grid network. Many major vendors are also providing cables for smart grid networks. Such factors will increase the market during the forecast period.
Key Trend
The increasing trend to replace existing overhead power distribution lines will fuel the market development. Electricity is transmitted and delivered using either an overhead or underground cable system. A cable is an insulated conductor that is used to transmit and distribute power underground or overhead. One or more conductors with their own insulation, individual covers, assembly protection, and protective coverings make up a cable. Insulation protects the conductor by covering it and isolating it from the environment.
The primary reasons driving market expansion are the increase in urbanization and infrastructure development. Power and energy demand in the commercial, industrial, and residential sectors have all been affected by the aforementioned reasons. Increased expenditure on smart power transmission and distribution system upgrades, as well as the development of smart grids, are expected to propel the industry forward. Smart grid technology has been used to meet the increased demand for grid interconnections, resulting in a boom in new investments in underground cables. Such factors will increase the market growth and trends during the forecast period.
Key Challenge
The volatility in raw material prices is a major challenge to the market growth. Various environmental factors play a role in the changing priorities of power transmission and distribution (T&D) projects. The installation of transmission and distribution lines and cables involves multiple stages of approvals and several procedures. Also, environmental clearance is one such approval needed, which includes various agreements as well as approvals for forest or vegetation clearance. In addition, the risks of using hazardous substances, such as cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) cables make it difficult to obtain approval for power projects.
The volatility in the prices of copper, aluminum, and other raw materials such as energy and fuel results in fluctuations in cost and revenue for cable and accessory manufacturers. Moreover, instability in the cost of raw materials is often recovered by negotiated changes in the price of the final product. However, in such instances, changes in the selling price may lag behind metal price variations by a particular period. This delay happens as time is required to implement the necessary modifications to the customer pricing strategy. Such factors will hinder overhead cable growth during the forecast period.

The infrastructure segment showed a gradual increase in market share with USD 66.06 billion in 2017 and will continue to grow by 2021. In the infrastructure segment, steel is one of the most vital engineering and construction materials, as it is used in almost every industry. It is required in producing construction products, automotive, electronics such as washing machines and refrigerators, medical devices, cargo ships, and numerous other products. Countries such as China and India, with rapid economic growth and rising infrastructural activities, have emerged as major consumers and producers of steel. Favourable global economic momentum and rising urbanization are key factors for the stable demand growth for steel. Steel is majorly produced in blast furnaces or electric arc furnaces. Both production methods include processes such as smelting, which requires high operational temperature, and hence, high-temperature cables are needed as a critical component. Such factors will increase the market growth during the forecast period.
