ELECTRIC TRANSMISSION & DISTRIBUTION EQUIPMENT (US industry forecasts for 2013 & 2018) published by The Freedonia Group in June, 2009. This report consists of 323 PAGES and the price starts from US $ 4600.
Abstract
US demand to reach $24 billion in 2013
US demand for electric transmission and distribution equipment is expected to
grow 2.5 percent annually to $24 billion in 2013. Growth will be supported by
continued growth in electricity demand and the rising use of renewable energy
sources, many of which will require significant investment in the electric
grid to enable these remote generators to deliver power to consumers.
In addition, investments to modernize and upgrade the US electric grid --
including technologically advanced systems that are part of the so-called
“smart grid” -- will support demand for many types of electric
transmission and distribution equipment. The maturation of deregulation
efforts and regulatory changes designed to ensure returns on investment in the
electric grid will also support demand from electric utilities.
Moderating prices for many types of electric transmission and distribution
equipment, following sharp raw material price increases starting around 2005,
will prevent even more rapid growth. In addition, slower growth in
nonresidential construction and capital spending will limit gains.
Electric utilities, industrial sectors to remain dominant
By their very nature, the largest and most traditional markets for electric
transmission and distribution equipment are the electric utilities and
industrial sectors. In 2008, electric utilities accounted for nearly half of
total demand, with the industrial sector -- including nonutility generators --
accounting for an additional third. Growth in these markets will be supported
by increasing electricity generation by independent power producers and
cogenerators, combined with continued, albeit slowing, capital spending by
utilities and regulatory changes designed to ensure returns on investment in
the electric grid. The ongoing deregulation of the electric power industry
will continue to shift demand from utilities to industrial firms and
nonutility generators
The smaller government and institutional market will register the fastest
increases through 2013, with gains supported by growth in transportation
construction spending and government fixed investment. Both the commercial and
residential markets will see below average increases, with particularly weak
prospects in the commercial market due to modest gains in commercial
construction. Still, the continuing penetration of consumer electronics and
electric transmission and distribution product innovations will provide
opportunities in these applications.
The best opportunities will be in meters and power switching equipment. Demand
for meters will grow 4.8 percent annually, benefitting from the growing demand
for more advanced and expensive “smart meters” that provide
customers with pricing signals and thereby help limit demand. These smart
meters form an important part of the developing smart grid. Demand for power
switching equipment will rise five percent annually through 2013, supported by
the trend toward automated and remote controlled equipment among electric
utilities and by strong growth in substation construction to serve remote wind
farms and other renewable energy sources.
US shipments of electric transmission and distribution equipment are expected
to advance 1.5 percent annually, trailing demand. Foreign trade plays an
important role in the industry, with the US running a sizeable trade deficit.
