Key Trends in the Market

Wires are solid electricity conductors made using elements like aluminium and copper. They are usually thin and are used to establish electrical connections between two devices. A cable is a thick wire or a group of wires inside a rubber covering that transfers electricity or electrical signals. It is generally made using insulating material to ensure a smooth, secure, and reliable flow of electricity with minimum power loss. Electric wires are essential for all electronic products and significantly aid the power generation and distribution processes.

• To cater to the growing energy requirements of several sectors in North America, there is an increased pressure on the power generation and distribution sectors to expand their operational capacity. Wires and cables are extensively used across the power generation sector to maintain a reliable and secure flow of electricity. The growing inclination towards renewable energy is also projected to support the North America wires and cables market growth.
• Rapid urbanisation, rising disposable incomes, and improved standard of living have resulted in the expansion of the infrastructure and construction sector in North America. The rise in both public and private construction activities has resulted in a surge in the demand for wires and cables as they are widely employed in building wirings. Hence, the North America wires and cables market demand is being supported by the growing demand for products from various sectors, including commercial, residential, telecom, energy and power, and automotive, among others.
• There is a growing inclination towards smart grid technologies, including advanced metering and distribution automation systems, in North America to reduce operational costs, minimise loss of power, and improve profit margins. Moreover, the rising demand for swift, reliable, and secure data networking and telecommunication services is one of the key North America wires and cables market trends. The emergence of 5G technology that offers high frequency with ultra-low latency is further expected to bolster the market demand in the forecast period.
