Packaged Substation Market Trends

• 
  

  An enhanced facility in the power generation system boosts market growth

  
  

Market CAGR for packaged substation is being driven by the improved facilities in the power generationThe packaged substation market is expected to develop during the forecast period because to the continual evolution of energy demand, since key infrastructure, such as data centres, relies on electricity for ongoing services. In the foreseeable future, rising industrialisation and urbanisation in emerging and industrialised countries will add to the growing demand for packaged substations. During the forecast period, improved infrastructure in the power generation system is projected to boost growth in the market for full generating stations. Furthermore, the growing share of renewable energy in power generation is another important factor that is expected to drive the market. High voltage, low voltage, transformer, and other types of commercially available packed substations are available.

Product acceptance will be aided by a paradigm change towards upgrading and refurbishing subsurface and overhead transmission networks. The commercial picture will be augmented further by emerging trends in energy-efficient technologies and increased investments in the development of new grid infrastructure. For example, in April 2022, The Power Grid Corporation of India Limited (PGCIL) announced that investments totalling Rs. 821.29 crores had been sanctioned for five projects across the country. The Power Grid Corporation of India was established by the Government of India (GoI) to act as the country's major transmission corporation. As a result, growing spending on new grid infrastructure is propelling the substation industry forwards.

Increased investment in cutting-edge technology improvements, together with the continuous digitalisation of the industrial periphery, will boost product penetration. Substation digitisation implies increased operational effectiveness through the use of contemporary technology and procedures. In terms of investment and operational costs, digital substations outperform analogue versions. Furthermore, the devices provide benefits like as security, safety, interoperability, and high grid reliability. Backwards compatibility, a feature of digital substations, allows for the smooth integration of cutting-edge communication technologies with older systems in a utility.

Furthermore, due to the utilities' ability to continuously monitor and alter settings, the system provides a lower cost-benefit of maintenance. Substation automation also minimises the physical footprint, allowing utility operators to rent smaller premises for the same purpose or make better use of the space that is still available. Utilities around the world are building digital substations and expanding networking through new levels of digitisation. Developing countries have also made great progress in this area. Thus, driving the Packaged Substation Market revenue.

Packaged Substation Market Segment Insights:

Packaged Substation Type Insights

Lucy Group Ltd, formerly W. Lucy & Co. Ltd, is an Oxford-based privately held international conglomerate. The company's roots go back more than 200 years, when its primary business was metal castings. Since then, the company has grown and evolved into a collection of four unique business areas. The company employs approximately 1200 employees and works in eight countries from 16 sites. The company began in 1812, when William Carter started an ironmongery shop in Oxford. Carter established a brass and iron foundry at Summertown, Oxford, in 1821, which he expanded into the Jericho section of Oxford in 1825, constructing a major plant, the Eagle Ironworks, adjacent to the strategically important Oxford to Birmingham canal. In March 2019, Lucy Group Ltd successfully bought the Brazilian Arteche Electrical Switchgear company. Lucy will continue to manufacture medium voltage switchgear for South America.

Rio Tinto Group is a multinational Anglo-Australian firm that is the world's second-largest metals and mining conglomerate (behind BHP).  It was created in 1873 when a group of businessmen purchased from the Spanish government a mine complex on the Rio Tinto in Huelva, Spain.
