Substation Automation Market Size, Top Key Players, Latest Trends, Regional Insights and Global Industry Dynamics By 2022
The substation automation market value is expected to top US$ 37.48 Bn in 2021. High demand for retrofit conventional substations will improve sales through 2031. Application of substation automation will remain high across manufacturing units. Future Market Insights (FMI) also projects sales in commercial & civic power utilities and oil & gas terminal to catch up over the assessment period.
Besides this, surging number of data centers intended to support the expanding digital activities worldwide post COVID-19 will enable the substation automation market size to grow by 6% CAGR between 2021 and 2031. As per FMI, substation automation market will account for 18% of sales in industrial automation market in 2021.
Due to the global pandemic, demand for substations declined slightly in 2020. The effect of COVID-19 on demand from several end-use industries like power generation, mining, and general manufacturing was less, which drove substation automation sales in various regions.
Expansion of manufacturing units in developing countries will create a conducive environment for substation automation sales. This trend will continue resulting in high demand for both substation automation hardware and software.
