Surge arresters are essential to protect electrical equipment in transmission and distribution networks. They are installed in substations, transmission lines, and other parts of electrical networks. One of the prime factors driving the surge arrester market is increasing investments in transmission & distribution (T&D) networks. Expansion and upgrade of T&D networks have a direct impact on market growth. According to IEA World Energy Outlook 2020, USD 2.3 trillion was invested globally in the electric network during 2012-2019, with an average annual investment of about USD 283 billion during the same period. Investment in electrical networks is necessary to meet the towering electricity demands reliably. With the growing electrification of traditionally non-electric sectors, such as transportation, due to the adoption of electric vehicles, the electricity demand is expected to further augment during the forecast period. This factor drives the Market CAGR.
Additionally, investments in renewable energy technology have increased during the last decade. Rapidly falling installation prices due to rapid technology breakthroughs and various countries converting to green energy power generation are assisting in the rise of renewable energy technologies. This is deployed in the upcoming renewable energy projects at connection points and substations. A substation is a built-in grid-connected renewable energy installation to allow grid connectivity. This is used in these substations. Globally, the proportion of renewable energy generation is expanding, and increased investment in renewable energy projects presents prospects for manufacturers.
Furthermore, energy network regulators' typical approach has been to avoid the risk of over-investing in well-meshed electrical systems, particularly in industrialized economies. Electricity is supplied by a few major utility-scale plants to meet slow-growing consumer demand. Thus, driving the lightning arrester market revenue.
The Surge Arrester market segmentation, based on Type, includes Polymeric, Porcelain. The polymeric segment dominated the market and the market for polymeric is likely to increase due to its wide adaptability across various voltage ranges. Compared to porcelain, the product will be more popular due to its ease of handling and installation, dependable performance in challenging settings, inexpensive production, operational costs, and superior breaking resistance under overload situations. Furthermore, growing demand from numerous businesses to effectively combat system faults and significant investments to enhance existing power infrastructure would significantly improve the market globally.

Based on voltage, the Surge Arrester market segmentation includes Low, Medium, and High. The high segment dominated the market; It has a wide application in switchgear, transformer, and over-the-line to protect the device's overvoltage transient. The growth of the medium voltage segment will be fueled by economic diversification and the need to protect heavy equipment from voltage surges. Unprecedented demand for transformers and switchgear will add to the industry's landscape. This is because old systems are being replaced and upgraded, which will add to the landscape.
Based on class, the Surge Arrester market segmentation includes distribution, intermediate, and station. The station segment dominated the market; Station class surge arrestors guard against lightning and overvoltage, which occur when an electrical item draws more current than it is designed to manage in the system. These arrestors protect equipment with a voltage greater than 20 MVA. Significant aspects driving the station class market size include high-pressure relief capability, high durability, improved contamination resistance, and outstanding cantilever strength.
The Surge Arrester market segmentation, based on Application, includes Industrial, Commercial, and Residential. The industrial segment dominated the market, and increasing attention to power quality issues in industrialized economies due to widespread voltage spikes and surges will substantially impact the adoption of these units. In addition, as the economy grows and develops, electricity's part in total industrial energy consumption is expected to rise.
By Region, the study provides market insights into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Rest of the World.
