Global Smart ring main unit market is valued at around USD 1.6 bn in 2020 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of around 6.6% during the forecast period (2021-2027). Smart Ring Main Unit is a fully enclosed, compact, factory assembled cabinet used for medium-voltage power distribution. This is a switchgear unit that is easily replaceable, requires low maintenance, and is highly protected in nature. To cover the wide breadth of user demands, smart RMUs can be found in various voltages, ideal for outdoor and indoor installations. In addition, smart ring main units (RMU) are tested to provide increased safety and reliability even in the harshest environments.
Factors such as increasing energy demands from the industries and rapid infrastructure growth in the energy sector are likely to drive the ring main unit market. Also, due to the increasing number of renewable energy installations that require a ring main unit at the substation level, the electricity distribution segment is expected to be the largest growing segment for the ring main unit market during the forecast period.
The coronavirus pandemic was declared a public health emergency worldwide by World Health Organization (WHO). Government across nations implemented lockdown and ban on traveling, the shutdown of manufacturing industries, commercial activities this had severely disrupted the supply chain. Moreover, the COVID-19 outbreak had a negative impact on demand on the smart ring main unit market for some energy sectors owing to a substantial slump in the electricity consumption in the industrial and commercial sectors. The shutdown of activities across the various sector had negatively influenced the market outlook.
For instance: According to IEA, prior to the global pandemic, India’s energy demand was projected to increase by almost 50% between 2019 and 2030, but growth after a pandemic is closer to 35%, and 25% in the Delayed Recovery Scenario. However, India is an expanding economy, population, urbanization, and industrialization expected to increase the energy demand in the forecasted period which is expected to escalate the market size of smart ring main unit.
