According to the Facts & Factors report, the global switchgear market size was nearly $91.1 billion in 2022 and is set to increase to about $121.2 billion by 2030 along with securing the highest CAGR of 5.8% from 2023 to 2030. 
A switching device is an integration of a slew of components including switches, current & voltage transformers, relays, isolators, fuses, switches, circuit breakers, and various other devices for improving operations. The rise in the use of switching equipment in transmission & distribution networks is likely to boost the demand for switchgear in the upcoming years. Furthermore, a switchgear device finds a plethora of applications in complex electric substations, thereby helping the latter withstand oscillating voltage operations in a volatile environment.

Rising industrialization and urbanization will translate into humungous demand for switchgear in various sectors. An increase in renewable energy trends will boost the growth of the switchgear market across the globe. Emerging economies such as India are upgrading as well as deploying new transmission lines & distribution networks for infrastructural development, thereby driving global switchgear market trends. Favorable government laws for restricting power outages along with the need for reinforcing power distribution networks will boost global market trends. A rise in funding for developing strong power infrastructure will propel the global market expansion.
Nevertheless, strict laws limiting GHG emissions and strict EU laws as well as the Paris Agreement related to reducing environmental degradation can put brakes on the growth of the global switchgear industry. However, the onset of the Industrial 4.0 revolution and the launching of smart technologies will open new growth opportunities for the industry across the globe.
Segmental Overview:
global switchgear market is segregated into insulation, installation, voltage, end-user, current, and region.
The insulation segment of the switchgear market is subdivided into gas-insulated switchgear and air-insulated switchgear segments. Furthermore, the gas-insulated switchgear segment, which accrued over 50% of the global market share in 2022, is anticipated to retain its segment dominance in the years ahead. The segmental surge in the upcoming years can be attributed to the massive use of thermoplastics in the food & beverages sector owing to its high mechanical strength, production ease, and cost proficiency. Additionally, thermoplastics find large-scale applications in lightweight constructions, storage tanks, window frames, and panels.
On the basis of current, the switchgear industry across the globe is divided into AC and DC segments. The AC segment, which amassed nearly 40% of the industry share in 2022, is anticipated to record the fastest CAGR in the upcoming years. The expansion of the segment in the projected timeline can be subject to the penetration of AC switchgear tools in the utility and residential sectors.
In terms of end-user, the switchgear market across the globe is segmented into transmission & distribution utilities, commercial sector, and residential sector segments. Moreover, the transmission & distribution utilities segment, which dominated the segmental growth in 2022, is anticipated to record the fastest CAGR in the forthcoming years. The segmental growth over the forecast timeline can be owing to a massive increase in the renewable and non-renewable energy demand.
Based on the installation, the global switchgear market is divided into indoor and outdoor segments.
On the basis of voltage, the switchgear industry across the globe is sectored into low, medium, and high segments.
Regional Overview:
Furthermore, the Asia-Pacific region, which amassed over half of the global switchgear market share in 2022, is anticipated to register the fastest CAGR over the anticipated timeframe. The regional market growth over 2023-2030 can be subject to the presence of giant industries such as manufacturing & processing in the countries such as India and China.
Furthermore, developing countries are allocating huge funds for power infrastructural growth requiring a strong grid infrastructure. In addition to this, the large-scale presence of product manufacturers in the sub-continent will account lucratively for regional market growth.
