By application,
Increasing investments in power distribution networks due do the rise in urbanization in developing countries, along with the space constraints in densely populated areas, are expected to drive the market for ring main units in the distribution utilities segment. Global distribution utilities are facing various challenges such as aging workforce that cannot be replaced because of lack of skilled workforce. Also, COVID-19 has further exacerbated the situation because manual intervention in the field is still required. Because of the lockdown situation, utilities are at a standstill, which has led to losses for companies. This has had a negative impact on the ring main unit market.
The outdoor segment is projected to account for a significant share of the ring main unit during the forecast period
The outdoor ring main unit segment is likely to dominate during the forecast period. Growing power consumption, ultimately leading to the expansion and upgradation of power grid, and increasing solar and wind energy installed capacity are expected to boost the demand for outdoor ring main units. COVID-19 has negatively impacted the power industry globally during the past two months. The demand curve for electricity has taken up new shapes, mainly in those countries where the impact of coronavirus is high. The decreasing demand for electricity is caused by lockdowns across countries to mitigate the spread of the virus. This will have a negative impact on the growth of the outdoor ring main unit market for a considerable period of time.
The gas insulated segment is projected to account for the largest share during the forecast period
The gas insulated segment is predicted to dominate the ring main unit market based on application. Growing demand from countries such as India, Japan, and China is the driving factor for the gas insulated ring main unit market. However, due to COVID-19, the market size for the gas insulated segment fell in 2020. Gas insulated ring main units require SF6 gas, and manufacturers of gas insulated ring main units are finding it hard to procure SF6 gas due to the ongoing lockdown restrictions.
