Global Medium Voltage Cables & Accessories Market Research Report 2023-Competitive Analysis, Status and Outlook by Type, Downstream Industry, and Geography, Forecast to 2029
Medium Voltage cables, or MV cables, is a category defined by the International Electro technical Commission (IEC) as having a voltage rating of above 1kV up to 100kV. But not everyone uses this specific range to classify MV cables. The voltage range of MV cables depends on the country and the particular system that is being used. Some common medium voltages are 5,000v, 8,000v, 15,000v, 25,000v, 35,000v. Cable accessories for medium voltage have similar design and performance requirements as that of cables of same voltage range.
Market Overview:The latest research study on the global Medium Voltage Cables & Accessories market finds that the global Medium Voltage Cables & Accessories market reached a value of USD 47716.75 million in 2022. It’s expected that the market will achieve USD 61127.83 million by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 4.21% during the forecast period.
Rapid industrialization and urbanization
Rapid industrialization and urbanization has been the key driving factor sustaining the growth of the medium voltage cables market. Industrialization and urbanization has been increasing at a much faster pace in the developing economies, resulting in more requirement for power generation, transmission, and distribution and thus is expected to boost the requirement of medium voltage cables. This factor is likely to increase the growth of medium voltage cables industry. Innovations in the design of medium voltage cables has positively impacted the medium voltage cables market. Several players have taken steps and introduced improvements. Prysmian, a leading player in the cables market, introduced P-laser, which has high-performance insulating system technology (HPTE) that can replace the commonly used medium voltage cross-linked polyethylene insulated XLPE cables. These technological advancements ensure the attractiveness of this market and is expected to drive further innovations and the growth of medium voltage cables market.
Stiff competition
With major manufacturers and suppliers in the Medium Voltage Cables & Accessories industry competing at globally, the intensity of competition within the Medium Voltage Cables & Accessories industry has increased. The vendors adopt strategies like price premiums to stay competitive in the market. Meanwhile, the local vendors in developing nations are providing tough competition to the global players based on product pricing. The fierce competition is not conducive to the sustainable development of the industry. At the same time, small companies or small retailers enter the business consequently as venturing into a Medium Voltage Cables & Accessories business does not require immense capital or investment. However, this leads to the proliferation of sub-standard or duplicate products which then hampers the competitive scenario in the market as established Medium Voltage Cables & Accessories manufacturers are compelled to lower the price of their products, which ultimately impacts their profit margins and sales volumes. The fierce competition is not conducive to the sustainable development of the industry.
