Global Air-Insulated Switchgear Market Size is valued at USD 67.5 Bn in 2024 and is predicted to reach USD 112.1 Bn by the year 2034 at a 5.4% CAGR during the forecast period for 2025-2034.
Key Industry Insights & Findings from the Report:
Air-insulated switchgear (AIS) is a form of electrical switchgear that insulates the elements that transport current with air. This form of switchgear, which can be enclosed or open, is utilized in high-voltage applications. When air is used as an insulating medium, larger voltages and currents can be handled without the risk of electrical arcing. In response to environmental concerns, many countries around the world have enacted laws and regulations to minimize the use of hydrocarbons in electricity generation, which is projected to expand the growth of the global air-insulated switchgear market.
Significant investment by developing countries in electrifying rural areas, as well as increasing network development, have fueled the growth of the worldwide air-insulated switchgear market. Furthermore, the growing demand for resilient and highly reliable electric networks across various business verticals has fueled market expansion.
However, The COVID-19 pandemic reduced worldwide economic growth, which slowed industrial and commercial activity, and hindered the air-insulated switchgear market development.
Furthermore, the use of gas-insulated switchgear (GIS) as an alternative to air-insulated switchgear is anticipated to hinder market growth during the projection period, as air-insulated switchgear substations require high maintenance, resulting in increased operational expenses.
The air-insulated switchgear market is segmented on the basis of voltage range, installation, and application. Based on voltage, the market is segmented as Low, medium, high. The installation segment includes indoor and outdoor. By application, the market is segmented into transmission & distribution, industrial, commercial & residential, transportation, and other applications.
The medium voltage category is expected to hold a major share in the global air-insulated switchgear market in 2024. It is intended to protect electrical equipment against excessive quantities of energy present in an electric field. This sort of switchgear, also known as an EMI filter, can help limit the amount of interference that electronic equipment experiences.
The transmission & distribution segment is projected to grow rapidly in the global air-insulated switchgear market due to the presence of a robust electrical grid network throughout major economies such as North America and Europe. This issue has resulted in increased demand for air-insulated switchgear from countries such as the United States, Canada, Mexico, China, Japan, and others, who have spent heavily in developing their power grid networks in recent years.
The Asia Pacific air-insulated switchgear market is expected to record an augmented market share in revenue shortly, owing to the rising demand for higher-voltage power distribution systems in growing markets such as China, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand. Furthermore, rising investments in new power generation facilities and increased demand from end-use sectors are expected to boost growth in this region throughout the projection period. Increasing investments in the renewable energy industry in North America and aging power infrastructure will likely provide market participants with significant business prospects in the next years.
