Egypt Switchgear Market

Egypt Switchgear Market Overview

The switchgear comprises of various electrical disconnect switches, fuses, and circuit breakers that are used to control, protect, and isolate the electrical equipment. These switchgears are used both to de-energize equipment to enable work to be done and for clearing faults downstream. Electrical switchgear regulates, protects, and isolates a power system with a range of controls housed in a metal enclosure. The protection of switchgear plays an important role in the modern power system network, starting from generation through transmission to distribution end.

Major Egypt Switchgear Market Drivers

The major factors that are responsible for driving the growth of the Egypt switchgear market include the increasing need to replace the aging power infrastructure, followed by the rising number of investments, particularly in the renewable energy sector in Egypt. Moreover, nationwide urbanization and modernization are certain other factors that are indirectly surging the growth of the market in the next six years. There has been a drastic increase in private sector investment for the development of power plants in the country. This factor will open new doors for the growth of the market. The strong demand for energy driven by the growing requirement for a stable and reliable T&D network is another factor that is attracting a new end-user base towards the market. The switchgear is installed in several operational safety, cost-effective, and uninterrupted operations. They are often used in low, medium, and high voltage systems to handle the abnormal operating voltage network between the load centers and generating stations.

The increasing number of investments for sustainable power generation technology, will support the growth of the Egypt switchgear market. Thus, the accelerating adoption of switching equipment having advanced features is an emerging trend in the market that will have a positive impact on the market’s demand. On the other edge of the spectrum, harsh environmental conditions such as high temperature, pressure, and humidity, is a major factor that will hamper the growth of the market. In addition to this, the high cost of switchgear equipment and the requirement of high capital investment in the switchgear industry will further hinder the accelerating demand of the market.

Based on the Insulation, the air insulated switchgear (AIS) segment is projected to grow at a faster CAGR during the forecast period. The air insulated switchgear (AIS) is one of the most common type of medium-voltage switchgear that is being increasingly used these days. The increasing usage of AIS, especially in the transmission & distribution, manufacturing and processing, infrastructure and transportation, and various other industries, is the key driver that is contributing to the growing demand of the segment in the market. The air insulated switchgears are highly cost-effective, pollution-free, and easy to maintain ass compared to the GISs, thus encouraging the end-users to opt for AISs over the coming years.

On the basis of end-user, the T&D utilities segment is predicted to witness a higher CAGR during the forecast period. The T & D utilities is one of the largest end-user segment in the switchgear market. The T & D utilities, such as non-renewable and renewable sources of energy, are often used to capture the growing demand for electricity. The switchgear has various applications as it is a highly reliable and high-performance communication network to deliver centralized visibility and reporting. This is a significant factor that is emerging the growth of the segment in the market.

On the basis of installation, the outdoor segment is anticipated to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period. This is mainly due to the increasing usage of switchgears to improve the transfer of electricity over long distances and larger tools, this offering reliable switching operations. Furthermore, the increasing usage of outdoor switchgears, particularly in the transmission and sub-transmission sector is further enhancing the segment growth.
