Wire and Cable Voltage Market Trends




  • Increasing Investments in Transmission & Distribution of Electric Power Fuels Demand for Wires and Cables is driving the market growth




The increase in spending in the Transmission & Distribution (T&D) sector, which is in charge of effectively distributing power to various electrical equipment at various stages of the network, is a significant factor contributing to the market's growth. The Indian government boosted overall investments by eight state-owned power companies, including REC Ltd, by almost 19% to USD 7.86 billion (*59,990.52 crores) for 2021–2022, compared to the revised estimate of USD 6.59 billion (50,311.03 crores). The transmission and distribution industry played a significant role in this increase. In September 2021, the government was working assiduously to spend the whole budget of Rs. 1.5 lakh crore on smart metering projects across the country in an effort to fix the failing discoms. The government wants 25 billion smart meters installed by the end of 2025. As a result, there will likely be a greater requirement for wires and cables. According to World Energy Investment data, there would be a USD 6.8 trillion rise in T&D infrastructure investments between 2014 and 2035.


Data centers are necessary for networking, communications, and IT services. Data centers are crucial for the storage of data and the routing of traffic via them. The rise of Big Data has resulted in a strong demand for data centers, which is partly driven by the Big Data phenomenon. In order to save money and avoid the headache of operating data centres, which would cost billions of dollars, businesses have started favouring cloud storage. The need for wires and cables will expand as there are more data centres, which will boost the availability, security, and inexpensive connection of IT infrastructure.


The industry is expanding as a result of rising renewable energy output, expanding smart grid technology reserves, and international government initiatives for improving distribution and transmission systems. Submarine infrastructure has become more and more common as content and cloud service companies try to increase customer numbers and offer bandwidth-intensive services. A undersea cable is anticipated to last 25 years. The demand for electrical wires and cables has also significantly increased as a result of the Indian government's goal of producing 100 GW of solar energy by the end of the fiscal year 2022 and policies like the excise duty exemption for ferro silicon magnesium used to manufacture components of wind-operated electric power generators. One component that is anticipated to play a significant role in the next generation of cable is deep fibre. To improve service, MSOs (Multiple System Operators) can move fibre closer to clients. In addition to pursuing strategies like HERD (Headends Re-Architected as a Data Centre), adoption of the telco CORD (Central Office Re-Architected as a Data Centre) initiative for the MSO market, and adoption of virtualization technologies, MSOs cable are trying to simplify numerous operations by bringing the digital technologies closer to a number of users. Thus, driving the Wire and Cable Voltage market revenue.
