Utility Poles Market Forecasts to 2028 – Global Analysis By Type (Transmission Poles and Distribution Poles), Pole Size (Above 70ft, Between 40ft and 70ft and Below 40ft), Material(Wood, Steel, Concrete and Composites), Application and By Geography

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Utility Poles Market is accounted for $47.5 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $64.1 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 5.1% during the forecast period. A utility pole is a concrete or a shaft structure that carries and shields the power lines made of fiber optic cables and electrical cables. They bear the weight of these power-generating wires insulating them from external adverse conditions and surfaces according to the positioning of these cables. They are made of different varieties including concrete, sheet, wood, or composite materials. These poles contribute and strengthen the power lines by increasing their durability and ability to withstand heavy electrical pressures.

According to the Department of Energy (DoE), there are about 175-180 million utility poles in total in North America. According to the Public Utilities Regulatory Policy Act in the US, the generation of electricity started shifting from public utilities to industrial firms and non-utility generators. In addition, the EU had set an energy-saving target of 20%.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Growth in energy consumption

Energy transmission and energy distribution of the utility poles also play a significant role in supporting utility infrastructure and fulfilling energy needs as per the demand. Increasing power generation capacity and replacement of aging networks, growing energy consumption, expansion of the telecommunication industry, and approval of steel as a green material are some of the factors that drive the market growth.

Restraint:

Increase in the underground connection

The rise in trend for underground cables and wiring networks is restraining the growth of the market. There has been a recent infrastructure modification in the connection of telecommunication wires. Most of these wires have been planted underground to avoid any climatic erosion and physical disturbances. This factor poses a challenge to the growth of the utility poles market as it would affect the demand for the product.

Opportunity:

Technological advancements

Technological advancements on composite materials as utility poles are creating ample growth opportunities in the market. These composite materials in the recently observed utility poles are trending across the globe. They are also composed of cost-effective materials which will directly impact the market positively.

Threat:

Spacious requirement

Utility poles are concrete structures that need spacious positioning requirements for them to run across the locality to carry power transmission sources. This installation comes with lots of cost and cumbersome effort with an additional requirement of ample spaces for the poles to be erected in the stipulated areas. This is another challenge for the market.

Covid-19 Impact

The entire utility pole business sector was impacted during the pandemic period. The demand for electricity tapered down globally which led to a slump in the market during that period. The reduction in electricity demand and crippled innovations in telecommunication sectors because of lockdowns and curfews led to a poor supply of utility poles. There were also sudden closures of major telecommunication industries across the world during that period which hampered the growth of the global utility poles market excessively.

The between 40ft and 70ft segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The between 40ft and 70ft segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth, due to they are used in both energy transmissions well as energy distribution applications. An increase in the size of the pole offers the ability to handle greater load tension. Apart from this, the telecom industry is also a significant consumer of this category poles wherein increase in broadband users is mainly surging demand for the segment growth.

The wood segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The wood segment is anticipated to witness the fastest CAGR growth during the forecast period, due to it is used in the pole making therefore it is highly adopted in the utility poles. Utility poles that are made from wood are pressure treated with specific additives to keep woodpeckers, insects, fungi, and fires away from the pole. Thus, these factors are boosting the segment growth.

Region with largest share:

Asia Pacific is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period owing to increase in demand for telecom service. The region is witnessing growth in demand for electricity, and therefore, has undertaken major transmission and distribution projects for upgrading the transmission network with ultra-high voltage technologies. In addition, rise in focus on technological advancements and presences of several new players are projected to augment the growth of the market.

Region with highest CAGR:

North America is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period, owing to rise in usage of electricity in the countries leading to rise in the installation of utility poles in the region. Moreover, the growing demand for power supply by various industries and consumers for commercial and residential activities will prompt regional market growth.
