Global Submarine Power Cable Market Insights

Global Submarine Power Cable Market size was valued at USD 28.50 billion in 2022 and is poised to grow from USD 30.18 billion in 2023 to USD 47.74 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 5.90% during the forecast period (2024-2031).

Power and telecom applications frequently use submarine cables. Transmission of electricity to offshore wind farms and power plants, as well as links between nations and islands, all take place using underwater power cables. The need for low-power cables is being influenced by the rising need for linking the electrical systems of different nations. Communications between regions and countries are conducted using submarine communication cables. Undersea cables carry approximately 97% of all internet traffic worldwide, and as internet usage grows, so does the demand for undersea cables.

The rise of the market around the world has been fuelled by the growing focus on integrating offshore renewable energy generation and greater energy security. These communication cables facilitate quicker communication and transport lots of data. Nearly 90% of global data traffic travels over undersea communication cables. For OTT and communication providers like Google, Amazon, Facebook, and Microsoft, they are therefore the most valuable cable. NEC, a Japanese IT corporation, for instance, has revealed plans to construct a massive underwater cable with four crore fibre optics for Facebook. The submarine will have 24 fibre pairs and a maximum bandwidth of 500 mbps.

Most nations have laws protecting underwater cables from dangers because they view them as an essential part of their economies. As an illustration, the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) has established safety zones that forbid activities that might harm the cables connecting Australia and the rest of the world. The laying of fresh undersea cable projects is also made permissible.

US Submarine Power Cable Market is poised to grow at sustainable CAGR for the next forecast year.

FAQs

Global Submarine Power Cable Market size was valued at USD 28.50 billion in 2022 and is poised to grow from USD 30.18 billion in 2023 to USD 47.74 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 5.90% during the forecast period (2024-2031).

Alcatel-Lucent, TE SubCom, and NEC Corporation were the main companies that dominated the global submarine cable market in 2023. The other small- and medium-sized submarine cable companies concentrate on smaller projects in different locations. Numerous subsea cable suppliers are also involved in offshore oil and gas projects, underwater power cables, and other marine infrastructure projects all over the world.

Interconnecting power grids across countries and regions has numerous benefits, including enhanced grid stability, efficient load balancing, and access to diversified energy sources. Submarine power cables enable the interconnection of power grids, facilitating the exchange of electricity between different countries or islands. This helps to optimize energy resources, improve grid resilience, and foster energy cooperation, thereby driving the demand for submarine power cables.

The trend of increasing offshore wind farm installations is driving the demand for submarine power cables. Offshore wind farms are being developed in various regions globally to harness the abundant wind resources available at sea. Submarine power cables are essential for transmitting the electricity generated by offshore wind turbines to the onshore grid. As countries aim to increase their renewable energy capacity, the demand for submarine power cables for offshore wind farms is expected to continue growing.

At over 38.3% of the entire market in 2023, the Asia Pacific region held the greatest share. Wind farm acceptance and deployment are at their highest levels in this area, with China leading the pack. In operation offshore wind power capacity in China was 4.6 GW1, according to IEEFA. 40% of the entire 4.5GW added globally throughout the year was installed by the 1.8GW of offshore wind capacity it installed alone. With a combined capacity of 6.7GW and an investment boost of USD 18 billion, China approved 24 offshore wind power projects off the coast of Jiangsu Province in January.
