Gas Insulated Substation Market predicted to grow at more than 19.50% by 2030

Pune, India, December, 2018 /MRFR Press Release/- Market Research Future published a half-cooked research report on global Gas insulated substation market. The Gas insulated substation market is expected to expand at ~ 19.50% CAGR during the period 2022 to 2030.

Market Highlights

Gas insulated substation is a compact and multi-component assembly which is enclosed in a ground metallic housing. It is a significant component of power system infrastructure that uses a superior dielectric gas, and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6). The major component of gas insulated substation consist of busbar, circuit breaker, earthing switch, current transformer, feeder disconnector, cable termination, and control panel. The main advantages of gas insulated substation include compact size, high flexibility and reliability, less outages, and maintenance free. Moreover, factor such as non-availability of sufficient space also drive the market of gas insulated substation which requires very compact space. These substations find their application in high voltage installations, urban installation, and urban infrastructure, among others.  

Based on voltage, the market is segmented into medium voltage, high voltage, extra-high voltage, and ultra-high voltage. Medium voltage gas insulated substation segment dominates the market due to rapid improvement in the power distribution sector through the implementation of smart grid and smart metering technologies. Moreover, these substations are majorly used in distribution sector where space is a big issue. Therefore, the compact design of gas insulated substation allows the best utilization of space and offers most efficient and economical solutions to the end-users.     

The global gas insulated substation market is expected to grow at 19.50% CAGR during the forecast period.
