It’s expected that the market will achieve USD 24651.56 million by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 4.15% during the forecast period.
Influence of COVID-19 Outbreak on Medium Voltage (MV) Switchgear Industry
Development
Impacts from the short-term
In the short term, the medium-voltage switchgear product's sharp year-on-year decline was due to the impact of the epidemic. Downstream projects such as power plants, commercial departments, natural gas and petrochemical companies resumed slower than the same period. However, considering that the construction period of the related projects downstream of the medium-voltage switchgear is long, and the demand has a certain rigidity. Small and medium-sized medium-voltage switchgear companies suffered from the epidemic and faced tight funds and increased credit risk, which in turn caused a certain negative impact on the cash flow of operating activities of mediumvoltage switchgear companies.
Impacts from the long-term
In the long term, the impact of the epidemic is more of a delay in the demand for medium-voltage switchgear than it is to eliminate it. In many countries, after the epidemic, investment in infrastructure investment fields such as power grids is a highly probable event, which will benefit the sales of the medium voltage switchgear market. Since the demand for equipment renewal that drives this round of mediumvoltage switchgear sales growth has been gradually released, it is expected that the growth rate of medium-voltage switchgear sales of major enterprises will increase.
Strength
The increasing demand for electrification in emerging countries and the adoption of smart grid technology are one of the main factors that are expected to drive the market demand for medium voltage switchgear in the next few years. Emerging countries have always had electrification problems, which has hindered the growth of industry and construction. In addition, the lack of proper electrification in the industry has hindered the use of switchgear and other advanced equipment that requires electricity.
Weakness
Due to the high operating costs of switchgear, market growth may be hindered. More and more environmental concerns in various countries, such as the recycling and management of electronic waste. The increasing prevalence of local manufacturing dominance and the increase in foreign companies have led to increased competition. Overcapacity of medium-voltage switches, many countries generally implement low-price tender policy, regardless of technical level and quality, often the lowest price or close to the lowest bid. The quality control system is not perfect, and many small and medium-sized enterprises continue to buy prototypes to do formal tests.
Opportunities
Large-scale suburban immigration and favorable regulatory measures to ensure the healthy lives of family residents have led to urbanization and commercial expansion worldwide. The apparent increase in peak load demand has forced utilities and installers to upgrade and upgrade to universal power components to ensure the reliability and safety of the power grid. In the future, the increase in demand for effective power distribution networks will promote the growth of energy demand, which will benefit the market share of mediumvoltage switchgear.
Threat
The high-end medium-voltage products that are popular in the medium-voltage switch market, such as vacuum circuit breakers, all originate from a small number of manufacturers. There are really few independent and innovative products developed by small and medium enterprises. Because the financial resources and talents of SMEs are insufficient, development means are limited. Advanced technological equipment and techniques are important conditions for organizing mass production of modern electromechanical products. At present, in the medium-pressure field, vacuum pole column epoxy casting process equipment, switchgear cabinet body water assembly production line, etc., even if the enterprise has already produced a certain scale enterprise, it is still not perfect enough, and has not reached the advanced process level.
