Overview of the global transmission towers market
Research analysis on the global transmission towers market identifies that the T&D expansion leading to the rise in transmission tower installations will be one of the major factors that will have a positive impact on the growth of the market. Manufacturing sectors in APAC are significantly increasing resulting in demand for electricity that is driving the public and private power sector companies in numerous regions to start projects of scheduled network capacity expansion. These projects will raise the demand for electric power towers as they involve the setting up of numerous transmission towers for effective transmission of electric power, which in turn, will lead to the growth of the market. Countries such as China, India, Japan, Thailand, the Philippines, Vietnam, and Australia are witnessing substantial economic growth along with industrialization and commercialization. Our industry analysts predict that this market will grow at a CAGR of nearly 8% by 2021.
Modernization of power grids by adopting smart grids that use digital and IT to keep a track of the power flow efficiently and effectively are increasingly being used in the market. This is driving the need for smart grid T&D equipment, such as synchrophasor, HVDC, reclosers, and Volt-VAR control equipment. Moreover, upgrading technologies assist in collaborating and altering the grid to accommodate more number of low-carbon polluting technologies, such as renewables, distribution generation, and energy storage for power generation. The shift from traditional power grids to smart grid is expected to be one of the leading trends that will gain traction in the transmission towers market during the forecast period.
