The rising demand for electricity in the emerging economies will fuel the growth of the distribution board market. The surging requirement for electrical equipment protection and the safeguarding of network components will offer a boost to the distribution board's demand. The rising construction activities and the continuous requirement for energy from a slew of industries, and the rapid development of strong energy infrastructure will eventually fuel the distribution boards' market growth globally. The increasing deployment of solar panels and wind power turbines and the requirement for distribution boards in the energy utilities section will spread the scope of the market demand globally. The large-scale adoption of smart grid systems and the development of old power infrastructure will provide new growth avenues for market growth.
The replacement of mechanical breakers with new digital circuit breakers in different electricity management applications is driving the market growth as they help in simplified and rapid power management than the mechanical breakers. The inclusion of IT and OT (Operational Technology) in different sections to enhance the distribution system performance is providing a change in the distribution board market. The manufacturers, by providing imroved customer satisfaction, are trying to improve the organizational performance and are also trying to improve the system reliability and efficiency. The operational assets in the electric network in real-time are boosting the market. Therefore, electric distribution systems are increasingly becoming mainstream in OT intelligence for voltage regulators. Thus, driving the Distribution Board market revenue.
However, the rising product recalls due to product failure and also the latency in the execution of power distribution projects, creating panic among the vendors involved in the market projects, is a hindrance to the market growth globally. This further affects the financial status of the vendors due to the differing payment from the utilities. The easy availability of alternative products at a subsidized rate is also a restraint to the growth of the market.
The Distribution Boards' market segmentation, based on voltage type, includes Low Voltage and Medium Voltage. The medium voltage segment dominates the market, accounting for the largest market revenue. This rise in the segment is due to the increase in the investment of funds for enhancing the transmission & distribution infrastructure and building up of renewable energy units in the countries of North America and Europe. Further, the increase in offshore wind farms will fuel the expansion of this segment globally.
