Overhead Conductor Market by Product (Conventional, High Temperature), Current (HVAC, HVDC), Voltage, Rated Strength, Application - Global Forecast 2024-2030
The Overhead Conductor Market size was estimated at USD 1.42 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 1.54 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 9.46% to reach USD 2.68 billion by 2030.
Overhead conductors are typically used in power transmission and distribution networks, installed on overhead power lines, and used to transport electricity over long distances. The rapid urbanization and growing electrification worldwide, increasing usage of overhead conductors for grid interconnection, increasing smart grid investment, and modernizing power transmission and distribution systems have significantly fueled the demand for overhead conductors. However, the susceptibility of overhead conductors to lightning and the possibility of fatigue and safety concerns in overhead conductors have hampered the market growth. Furthermore, adopting overhead conductors for large-scale integration of renewable energy and the emergence of green overhead conductors are expected to boost the market in upcoming years.
