真空遮断器の市場規模は2030年までに13億米ドルに達すると予測され、予測期間中にCAGR 5.5%で上昇する見込みです。
KBVカーディナルマトリックスに掲載された分析によると、シーメンスAGとシュナイダーエレクトリックSEがこの市場の先駆者です。2020年1月、シーメンスAGはスイッチギアを専門とするC&Sエレクトリック社を買収しました。C&Sエレクトリックの製品が加わることで、シーメンスの製品は補完され、強化されます。さらに、この買収はシーメンスのポートフォリオをインド国内だけでなく、競争力のある国際市場への輸出もサポートすることになります。Eaton Corporation PLC、ABB Ltd、三菱電機などの企業は、この市場における主要なイノベーターです。
市場成長要因
再生可能エネルギー発電への投資の増加
国際エネルギー機関(IEA)によると、世界の電力セクターへの投資は、2020年の横ばいから2021年には約5%上昇し、8,200億米ドル以上に達すると予想されています。2021年にすべての新規発電設備に投じられると推定される5,300億米ドルのうち、70%が再生可能エネルギーに投じられます。太陽光発電や風力発電のような再生可能エネルギー発電には、保護メカニズムが必要です。その結果、発電プラントを配電所や電力網に接続するためのサーキット・ブレーカーが必要となります。予測期間中、これは市場全体の成長を促進すると予想されます。
電力消費の増加と電気インフラの成長
「スマートシティ」とは、一般インフラ、通信、交通、市場の実行可能性が高度化した大都市圏を指します。エネルギー効率の向上、スマートな水管理、強力な交通網、スマートグリッド、最先端の医療・教育施設などが"スマートシティ"の特徴です。現在、スマートシティプロジェクトはほとんどの地域で急速に拡大しています。このため、家庭、商業、工業分野での電力使用量が増加し、電気部品の需要が高まっています。設置された電気システムや電気機器が定期的に点検されない住宅や商業施設では、過負荷やショートのリスクが高まっています。そのため、予測期間中、電力消費量の増加が市場成長の原動力となると思われます。
市場抑制要因
スイッチング時の過電圧の可能性
真空遮断器(VCB)関連のスイッチング過渡現象は、長い間記録されてきました。最近では、変圧器のスイッチングに真空遮断器を使用することが増えたため、変圧器の故障の相当数がこの現象に起因しています。特定の状況下で変圧器のような誘導性の高い負荷をスイッチングする場合、サーキットブレーカに複数の再ストライクが発生する可能性があることは一般的な知識です。複数の再ストライクは、ケーブルを伝わって変圧器の端子に到達する短時間の電圧スパイクです。波は様々なサージインピーダンスのため、端子で反射・吸収されます。真空遮断器に関連するスイッチング時の過電圧のリスクは、予測期間中の市場成長を阻害する可能性があります。
電圧の展望
電圧に基づき、市場は中電圧と高電圧に区分されます。2022年には、中電圧セグメントが市場で最も高い収益シェアを占めました。電流は、中電圧(MV)真空遮断器を使って緊急時に遮断することができます。短絡、過電圧、高温から機械を保護するのに役立つため、あらゆる電気設備で最も重要な部品の1つです。MV VCBには、ドライサイト保護や水、火災、その他の危険から保護するガスケットなど、さまざまな定格と種類があります。
設置場所の展望
設置場所に基づいて、市場は屋内と屋外に細分化されます。2022年には、屋内セグメントが市場で最大の収益シェアを占めました。屋内では、真空遮断器は、小型、軽量、頻繁な操作に適している、メンテナンスなしで遮断できるなどの利点があります。3kV~40.5kVの配電網で最も一般的に使用されています。また、電力系統の一部が故障した場合、保護装置や自動装置と連携して故障部分を系統から速やかに排除し、停電の範囲を縮小し、事故の拡大を防ぎ、系統内のさまざまな電気機器を保護し、系統の故障のない部分の安全な運転を確保します。
産業別展望
産業別では、市場は住宅、商業、工業、公益事業に分類されます。住宅用セグメントは2022年の市場で大きな収益シェアを獲得しました。この市場セグメントは、可処分所得の増加、消費習慣の変化、家庭用電化製品の需要増加により拡大しています。また、真空遮断器は、住宅建築の増加や既存物件の近代化により、この応用分野で高い需要があります。
地域別展望
地域別に見ると、市場は北米、欧州、アジア太平洋、LAMEAで分析されます。2022年には、アジア太平洋地域が最大の収益シェアを獲得して市場をリードしました。この地域の市場は主に、工業化、電力需要の増加、都市化、送電網安定化ニーズの高まり、再生可能エネルギー源の拡大、電力セクター投資の増加、送配電インフラ重視の高まりといった要因によって牽引されています。

Market Growth Factors
Rising investment for power generation, especially for renewable energy sources
Global power sector investment is anticipated to climb by around 5% in 2021 to reach more than USD 820 billion, up from a flat 2020, based on the International Energy Agency (IEA). 70% of the USD 530 billion estimated to be spent on all new generation capacity in 2021 will go toward renewables, which currently dominate investment in new power generation. A protective mechanism is necessary for renewable energy sources like solar and wind generators. Consequently, the circuit breaker is needed for connecting power-generating plants to switchyards and the electrical grid. During the projected period, this is anticipated to promote market growth overall.
Growing consumption of electricity and growth in electric infrastructure
"Smart city" refers to metropolitan areas with advanced general infrastructure, communications, transportation, and market viability. Enhanced energy efficiency, smart water management, a strong transit network, smart grids, and cutting-edge medical and educational facilities are some features of the "smart city." Nowadays, smart city projects are expanding rapidly across most regions. This has increased electricity usage in the home, commercial, and industrial sectors, increasing demand for electrical components. In residential & commercial buildings wherein installed electrical systems and equipment are not regularly checked, there is a heightened risk of electrical overload and short circuits. So, during the forecast period, an increase in electricity consumption will likely fuel market growth.
Market Restraining Factors
Possibility of overvoltage during switching
Vacuum circuit breakers (VCB)-related switching transients have long been documented. Recently, a substantial number of transformer failures have been attributed to this phenomenon due to the increasing use of vacuum circuit breakers for transformer switching. It is common knowledge that several restrikes in the circuit breaker can happen when switching highly inductive loads like transformers under certain circumstances. Multiple restrikes are brief voltage spikes that travel down the cable and arrive at the transformer terminals. A wave is reflected and absorbed at terminals due to various surge impedances. The risk of overvoltage while switching that is associated with vacuum circuit breakers could impede market growth over the projection period.
Voltage Outlook
Based on voltage, the market is segmented into medium voltage, and high voltage. In 2022, the medium voltage segment held the highest revenue share in the market. Electric current can be cut off in an emergency using medium voltage (MV) vacuum circuit breakers. It is one of the most crucial parts of any electrical installation since it helps safeguard the machinery against short circuits, overvoltages, and high temperatures. The MV VCBs come in various ratings and varieties, including dry site protection and gaskets for protection against water, fire, and other hazards.
Installation Location Outlook
On the basis of installation location, the market is fragmented into indoor, and outdoor. In 2022, the indoor segment witnessed the largest revenue share in the market. In the indoor setting, the vacuum circuit breaker provides benefits like small size, light weight, suitability for frequent operation, and interrupting without maintenance. It is most commonly used in the 3kV-40.5kV distribution network. Also, when a part of the power system fails, it collaborates with protection devices and automatic devices to swiftly eliminate the faulty part from the system, decrease the scope of power outages, prevents accidents from escalating, and protect various electrical equipment in the system, ensuring the safe operation of the fault-free part of the system, which is aiding the segment's growth.
Industry Outlook
By industry, the market is classified into residential, commercial, industrial and utilities. The residential segment garnered a significant revenue share in the market in 2022. This market segment is expanding due to growing disposable incomes, shifting consumer habits, and increasing demand for household appliances. In addition, vacuum circuit breakers are in high demand in this application area due to rising residential building construction as well as modernizing existing properties.
Regional Outlook
Region wise, the market is analysed across North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and LAMEA. In 2022, the Asia Pacific region led the market by generating the largest revenue share. The market for this region is primarily being driven by factors such as rising industrialization, electricity demand, urbanization, rising grid stability needs, expansion of renewable energy sources, rising power sector investment, and rising emphasis on transmission and distribution infrastructure.
