The submarine cable systems market is projected to grow from USD 13.8 billion in 2021 to USD 22.7 billion by 2026; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.5%from 2021 to 2026.  

Submarine power cables are widely used to link shore-based power grids. These cables carry power from one country to another, as well as from one offshore installation to another, and transfer power from offshore renewable energy generation plants, which use wind, wave, and tidal energy for electricity generation to other installations, consumers, regional electrical transmission networks, etc. 

“By insulation type, the market for Oil-Impregnated Paper (OIP) segment is expected to hold largest share during the forecast period”

OIP-insulated submarine power cables offer high voltage insulation and are usually employed for high-voltage DC transmission. These are also called mass-impregnated cables and are sustainable for the environment. This insulation type is the go-to for insulation for submarine power interconnectors, as it is suited for long-distance transmissions at extreme depths.

“The offshore wind power generation segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR of the submarine power cable systems market during the forecast period.”

Increase in use of submarine power cables for long-distance power transmission by offshore wind power generation plants is expected to fuel the demand for submarine power cables for offshore wind power generation during the forecast period. 

“Asia Pacific region is expected to hold the largest share of the submarine power cable systems market during the forecast period.”

 Planned investment for using renewable power sources in China, advanced research and development activities in Japan, and related government initiatives in Asian countries are expected drive the regions revenue generation from submarine power cable systems market.
