Electric Insulator Market by Type (Ceramic, Glass, and Composite), Voltage (Low, Medium, and High), Category (Bushings), End-User (Utilities, Industries), Application (Transformer, Cables, Busbar), and Region

The electric insulator market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.58%, from 2018 to 2023.

The electric insulator market is projected to reach USD 13.34 billion by 2023, from an estimated USD 10.17 billion in 2018, at a CAGR of 5.58%. This growth can be attributed to the growing adoption of renewable energy sources, increasing investments in T&D networks, and refurbishment of existing grid networks across the globe. However, increasing availability of low-quality gray market products can hinder the growth of the market.

The composite segment is expected to be the fastest growing market in the electric insulator market from 2018 to 2023.

The composite segment is estimated to be the fastest growing segment the forecast period. Composite insulators consist of silicone rubber housing and sheds, fiberglass core rod and metal end fittings. Composite insulators have certain advantages such as lightweight, improved transmission line aesthetics, less gunshot damage, high shock resistance, and ease of installation. These advantages make composite insulators more suitable over conventional porcelain insulators.

Transformer: The fastest growing market for electric insulators

The transformer segment, by application, is estimated to be the fastest growing during the forecast period. Increasing installation of various transformer types for meeting the rising electricity requirements has led to the largest share of the transformer segment in the total electric insulator market.

Asia Pacific: The fastest growing market for electric insulators

Asia Pacific is estimated to be the fastest growing market for electric insulators by 2023 and is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Increase in population, urbanization, and growth of the industrial sector have increased the demand for power in China and India. The governments of Asia Pacific countries are planning to develop more electrical grid and power generation capacity, which would further boost the demand for insulators in the region. Therefore, increasing demand for power and upgrade of existing electrical infrastructure are expected to boost the electric insulator demand in the region.
