London, 6 July 2015: Technavio, the independent tech-focused global research firm, has published a report on the global high voltage switchgear market 2015-2019, which is expected to grow at a CAGR of 12.89% during the forecast period of 2014-2019.

Increasing investment in renewable energy projects drives the demand for high voltage switchgears in this market. Growing investment opportunities in eco-friendly schemes like solar and wind power projects also boost the prospects of growth in this market. Projects undertaken by developing countries like India and China for the transmission of power, obtained from sustainable resources, also drive the potential for growth in this market.
“The steady shift from conventional switchgears to innovative modular switchgears is one of the major trends in the market. Conventional air-insulated switchgear includes various components such as circuit breakers, current transformers, and disconnectors. These components need individual installation spaces, which makes the installation of these components very complex,” says Faisal Ghaus, Vice President of Technavio.
“Innovative modular switchgears overcome these issues by integrating these functions into the breaking chamber of the circuit breaker, which results in easy installation and optimizes overall operational costs.”
