Market Overview

Mobile substation market size was worth US$ YY million in 2021 and is estimated to record significant growth by reaching up to US$ YY million by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 5% within the forecast period (2022-2029).

Mobile substations are autonomous systems that offer maximum flexibility and mobility. The substation can be prepared, transported and operational in less time, thus making it ideal for addressing a range of contingencies that utilities may face.

A trailer-mounted substation includes a power transformer, switchgear, disconnected switches, metering transformers, surge arresters, protection and control equipment, AC and DC auxiliary power and control systems. A mobile substation can be built in a small space because it is trailer-mounted. It can also be readily relocated.

Mobile substations are useful as backup units in emergencies and can also be beneficial when electricity distribution must be provided or restored in a short period. The mobile substation market is fragmented, with several small and mid-sized businesses providing solutions for utility applications and mostly serving local markets.

Some primary benefits projected to fuel the growth of mobile substations throughout the forecast period include portability, quick startup and commissioning times, a smaller mechanical footprint and the absence of construction work.

Market Dynamics

The growing demand for emergency power during disasters and wars has escalated the demand for the mobile substation market.

The growing demand for emergency power supply during disasters and wars has escalated the demand for the mobile substation market

Mobile substations are temporary power systems requiring emergency power supply in various areas. It's easy for operation managers to believe catastrophes and natural disasters won't touch their locations. Still, they're rather prevalent - there have been quite a few in recent years alone.

Unexpected catastrophes such as earthquakes, high winds and floods can disrupt power supply and create weeks or months of downtime for site managers without a plan. Taking the necessary steps can dramatically reduce any ensuing downtime and protect against Mother Nature's vulnerabilities.

For instance, in 2020, the occurrence and intensity of worldwide natural disasters were typically lower than the average over the previous 30 years (1990-2019). Major natural catastrophes were 4% less often in 2020, with 73% fewer deaths, 50% less people affected and 29% greater direct economic losses.

In 2020, the frequency of extreme temperatures globally was low, but the number of deaths from such events was the highest, reaching 6343; flood disasters were the most common, occurring 43% more frequently than historical levels and causing 6171 deaths, though flood-related deaths were 7% lower than the historical average; direct economic losses from storm disasters were large, reaching USD 93.2 billion, 64 percent higher than historic levels; there were few

In 2020, Asia had the highest frequency of natural catastrophes, followed by Africa; Asia had the highest frequency of natural disasters across all continents. Disasters killed the most people in Europe, followed by Asia; disasters caused the biggest economic losses in North America, followed by Asia; developing countries were more severely affected by disasters, primarily floods and storms, than industrialized countries.

Thus, to overcome the growing drastic effects of natural disasters, various natural disaster-prone countries have increased mobile substations' usage to maintain the power flow in the affected area. In order to support the growth of mobile substations and overcome the growing demand for mobile substations, various companies are bringing their latest technology.

For instance, on September 3, 2020, Hitachi ABB Power Grids pioneered a modular mobile substation system that decreases the time to restore power after significant disruptions like a natural disaster. The world-first 400 kV multi-voltage modular mobile substation system can be quickly deployed and erected to restore electricity in as little as seven days, compared to 18 months for a new build of a traditional substation. Each mobile substation is compact and ready for quick energization, with high-voltage hybrid switchgear and protection and control technologies.

Difficult designing and installation of the mobile substation is the primary hurdle hampering the market growth of the product

A mobile substation is an equipped electrical system mounted on a semi-trailer and can be readily relocated.

Designing and installing a mobile substation are constrained in ways that are not present when dealing with conventional substations, which is a major hurdle for the product's market growth. Specific constraints are transportation constraints, including trailer dimensions and weight, road regulations and electric clearances, particularly for equipment higher than 100 kV. Furthermore, the need for a quick installation in places where lifting equipment is unavailable and, finally, the specific problems of connection and integration of the substation to the generating station. These constraints make designing mobile substations far more difficult than just putting the equipment of a standard transformer bay on a semi-trailer.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has caused a severe impact on a variety of significant processes and industries, including automotive, chemicals, oil & gas, energy & power, mining and manufacturing. The virus's rapid spread has prompted governments worldwide to impose stringent human and vehicle movement restrictions.

Furthermore, due to the statewide lockdown, the supply chain, production of components, equipment and systems and the supply of raw materials for manufacturing components utilized in a mobile substation are all being disrupted. The overall market revenue for the mobile substation market is being restrained by constrained manufacturing activities and reduced demand from end-use industries, resulting in a decline in the market growth over the next few years.

Segment Analysis

The global mobile substation market is segmented based on type, voltage, power rating, mobile transformer, application and region.

A significant increase in urbanization and industrialization around the world has improved the overall demand for the distribution transformer segment

The global mobile substation market is segmented into power transformers and distribution transformers based on the mobile transformer. In 2020, the distribution transformer sector had the dominant share of the market. During the projection period, a significant increase in urbanization and industrialization worldwide is likely to enhance the distribution transformer segment.

A distribution transformer is the type of transformer that performs the final voltage transformation in a distribution grid. It reduces the voltage in transmission lines to 240 volts, adequate for residential and commercial use. If the transmission lines are above ground, the transformers are pole-mounted; if the transmission lines are underground, as in many suburban areas, they are pad-mounted. The pad-mounted transformer is usually green and may be seen on many people's front lawns. The distributed transformer offers various advantages, such as the transformer converts high voltage electrical to low voltage electricity and hence is majorly utilized in homes and businesses.

The major purpose is to lower the voltage and provide isolation between the primary and secondary windings. The transformer transmits electricity generated by power plants to faraway places. Generally, this transformer transmits electrical energy to enterprises with lower voltages (less than 33 kV) and 440 to 220 volts for home use. Thus growing demand for distribution transformers in commercial and residential buildings has improved the overall business of the market.

Geographical Analysis

The rising demand for mobile substations in the Middle East and Africa due to the significant increase in oil and gas and mining industries

The global mobile substation market is divided into five regions: North America, Asia-Pacific, Europe, South America, the Middle East and Africa. In 2019, the Middle East and Africa (MEA) dominated the global mobile substation market. Natural resources such as oil, gas and metals abound in the Middle East and Africa. The demand for mobile substations in the region increases due to a significant increase in oil and gas and mining industries.

However, countries in these regions, Iraq, Algeria and Nigeria, have seen numerous political and social upheavals, resulting in infrastructural destruction. As a result, these countries have a tremendous need for energy and power. As conditions improve, administrations in these areas attempt to reestablish basic utilities. Iraq's Ministry of Electricity has placed orders for mobile substations from Siemens (Germany), Meidensha (Japan), CG Power (India) and Aktif (Iraq) (Turkey).

Another important market for mobile substations is Asia-Pacific. The demand for power in the region has risen dramatically due to the region's growing population and industrial sector.
