0-15 kV Segment Garnered the Largest Share in 2022
The largest share in the recloser market is expected to be held by up to 15kV segment during the forecast period owing to the demand for safe substation equipment, especially automatic circuit reclosers. The ability of these products to operate in various low-voltage ranges is expected to boost market growth, propelled by the increasing construction of residential and commercial properties and urbanization. Infrastructure and power industry applications are anticipated to fuel the growth of 38 kV reclosers.
Electronic Segment is Projected to Hold the Largest Segment in 2022
The electronic segment is expected to hold the largest share of the recloser market in the coming years, given its extensive use in energy infrastructure and devices. The growth of electronic reclosers is attributed to various factors, including the increasing adoption of smart grids, distribution automation systems, and the growing demand for voltage disturbance protection. On the other hand, hydraulic reclosers are expected to contribute to the market growth, given their cost-effectiveness, low maintenance, and reliability in areas with limited access to power sources.
The vacuum-type segment has registered significant market growth due to its superior worthwhile properties, improved reliability, cost-efficiency, environmental friendliness, and recycling ability. This type of recloser is more durable, has lower mechanical stress levels, reduces costs, and provides maximum operational safety, making it a popular choice among consumers. The recloser market is driven by various factors, including the availability of different types, such as oil-insulated, gas-insulated, and epoxy-insulated. Among these types, the epoxy insulation medium is expected to experience the fastest growth due to its hydrophobicity and permanent flexibility, which require minimal routine maintenance in distributed feeders and substations.
Single-Phase Category to Hold a Significant Share During the Forecast Period
The transmission and distribution sectors of the power industry are expected to be a significant growth factor segment in the three-phase recloser market due to the advantages they offer over single-phase reclosers, including the ability to handle high currents, smaller conductor size, and lower installation costs, making them more suitable for high voltage industrial and utility distribution networks. While the single-phase recloser market remains significant due to its versatile application in various areas, such as education, communication, data centers, and public departments, where they protect three-phase feeder branches and taps.
Asia Pacific is Expected to Have the Largest Market Share During the Forecast Period
The recloser market is expected to be dominated by the Asia Pacific region during the forecast period due to the growing demand for electricity, reliable power supply, and increasing investments in grid infrastructure. The region has the largest population in the world, and the electricity demand is expected to continue to grow due to urbanization and industrialization. Investments in grid infrastructure, such as smart grids and distribution automation, are expected to drive the growth of the recloser market. Adopting new technologies, such as IoT and cloud-based solutions, is also expected to increase demand for advanced recloser devices that can provide more accurate and efficient control of power distribution networks.
Moreover, the fastest growth is witnessed by North America, which is being driven by the rising adoption of smart grid technologies, government initiatives to enhance grid reliability and the replacement of aging infrastructure. Digital reclosers and distribution automation will improve grid efficiency and reliability. Infrastructure upgrades are needed for the region’s mature power grid. Companies operating in the recloser market will benefit from the growing investment in renewable energy sources. Further, S&C Electric Company and Hubbell Power Systems innovate products to contribute to market growth.
