In addition, the exponential rise in the adoption of electric vehicles globally, that necessitates the development of new advanced charging infrastructure and increased integration of several IoT devices into these cables, are likely to impact the market growth in a positive way.
- For instance, in December 2022, NKT, announced its new low-voltage power cable developed using low-carbon materials. The new cables are being manufactured with low-carbon aluminum and polyolefins at their manufacturing facility in Falun, Sweden, that is completely running on renewable electricity. With this project, the company strengthens its position in the sustainability efforts and become a key partner in the EU market.
Moreover, the rapid development of various types of advanced insulation materials such as cross-linked polyethylene and ethylene propylene rubber, which has significantly improved the durability and performance of overhead cables, increasing their resistance to environmental factors, and extending their operational life are likely to create huge growth potential for the market over the coming years.
However, the high initial investment costs associated with the installation of overhead cables infrastructure and emerging trend towards the undergrounding power transmission and distribution lines due to aesthetical and environmental reasons, are major restraints for the growth of the market.
- For instance, in July 2023, Kolkata Municipal Corporation, announced that they have decided not to accept any new applications for the laying of overhead cables even for telephone, internet, and television and will allow only to repair the existing overhead lines.
The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the growth of the overhead cables market. The emergence of the pandemic led to huge disruptions in manufacturing and supply chains worldwide, as countries have imposed restrictions on movement, lockdown measures, and trade restrictions, that largely affected the production and distribution of overhead cables. The pandemic also caused fluctuations in electricity demand patterns, as commercial establishments and industries were temporarily closed or operating at reduced capacities.

By Type Analysis
Low voltage segment accounted for the noteworthy market share in 2022
The low voltage segment accounted for significant share. The growth of the segment market can be largely accelerated to its widespread use and applications on both commercial and residential sectors, as it provides more reliable and energy-efficient power distribution along with cost-effectiveness, making them highly preferred among majority of the consumers globally. Beside this, the rapidly surging consumer inclination towards the renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power and significant expansion of global population, that requires the expansion of power distribution networks is also likely to propel the segment market. As low voltage overhead cables have become crucial or vital for connecting renewable energy sources to the grid and delivering the generated power to consumers, the demand for these cables have drastically increased.
The high voltage segment is expected to gain substantial growth rate over the anticipated period, mainly due to rising demand for electricity all over the world due to rapid urbanization, drastic population growth, and higher industrialization. Additionally, the aging power infrastructure in many countries leading to greater need for modernization and upgrades, and resulting in increased demand for high voltage cables due to its ability to cover long distances and cost-effectiveness.
By Application Analysis
Residential segment is expected to witness highest growth over forecast period
The residential segment is projected to grow at highest growth during the projected period, on account of surging rate of urbanization in countries like India, China, and Indonesia that lead to increased demand for residential infrastructure including power distribution networks to meet the rising electricity need and growing number of public initiatives focused on improving power distribution and increase access to electricity in residential areas. For instance, according to a report published by European Commission, the total consumption of final energy across the households represented approx. 27% of total final energy or 18% of gross inland energy consumption in the European Union.
The industrial segment led the industry market with considerable share both in terms of revenue and volume in 2022, that is largely accelerated to significant expansion of existing industrial units and the focus on the establishment of new industrial zones coupled with the increased number of companies expanding their operations, which require additional power supply infrastructure to cater to the increased energy needs.
Regional Insights
North America region dominated the global market in 2022
The North America region dominated the global market with substantial revenue share in 2022, and is projected to maintain its dominance throughout the study period. The regional market growth can be largely attributable to region’s increased demand and need for efficient and reliable power transmission systems and higher focus on government and large private organizations towards innovations and technological advancements. Moreover, growing government support for energy infrastructure projects and regulations promoting the use of efficient power transmission systems have also encouraged the adoption of overhead cables in the region.
Asia Pacific expected to grow at rapid pace, owing to rapid increase in the demand for electricity as a result of booming population across the region and higher implementation on various smart city projects with integrated and efficient power distribution systems coupled with the surging focus on modernizing the power grids in countries like China and India. For instance, according to our findings, the total energy consumption in India increased by over 9% in 2021 to Mtoe 951 and is surging rapidly over the last few years. The electricity consumption per capita also reached approx. 920 kWh in 2021, which almost accounts for a third of the Asian average.
