Growing energy demand, rising power transmission & distribution network, increasing infrastructure development activities, and shift towards power generation from renewable sources of energy are anticipated to drive the demand for package substation market in Saudi Arabia.

According to 6Wresearch, Saudi Arabia Package Substation Market is projected to reach $842.9 Million by 2022. Package Substation market in Saudi Arabia grew over the past five years on the back of increasing power requirements due to the growing population, infrastructure development, and rapid industrialization. Though, during the forecast period, the growth of the market is expected to decline owing to lower infrastructure spending due to lower oil prices.

According to Ravi Bhandari, Research Analyst, 6Wresearch, In Saudi Arabia, the industrial sector has captured major revenue share in the overall market, however, power sector revenues are expected to rise with the expansion of transmission and distribution network and the setup of new power plants in the country.
