Similarly, according to IEA, approximately USD 3,180 billion would be invested globally between 2014 and 2035 on the net addition of 3.2 million kilometers of transmission lines. This would in turn increase the demand and installation of GIS globally.

The global Gas Insulated Switchgear market is expected to grow at ~8.77% CAGR during the forecast period.

Market Segmentation

Global Gas Insulated Switchgear Market

Global Gas Insulated Switchgear market is expected to witness substantial growth during the forecast period owing to growth in renewable power generation and increasing investments in the transmission & distribution infrastructure. For instance, as per OECD, the global electricity Transmission & distribution (T&D) infrastructure would increase from USD 282 billion in 2016 to USD 351 billion in 2026 with a compounded growth rate of 2.2%. this investment is driven by increasing demand for electricity and electricity capacity additions especially in emerging economies which are in need for electricity generation. Countries such as China, Japan, and India are investing in their grid expansion projects to increase distribution grid reliability. China is an export-oriented economy and has witnessed high growth in the demand for electricity in the past couple of decades, fueled by industrialization and infrastructural developments. Moreover, India, China, and Indonesia are investing heavily in their hydroelectric power projects. This has led to rise in investments in the transmission & distribution sector by connecting renewable energy generation to the grid and are expected to drive the growth of the gas insulated switchgear market in Asia Pacific.
