12 kV segment by Voltage held the highest revenue share in Brazil Ring Main Unit Market -6Wresearch
In 2024, the 12 kV segment led Brazil's RMU market, driven by its widespread use in urban and suburban areas and compatibility with secondary distribution networks, which predominantly operate at 12 kV. Ongoing infrastructure growth in industrial parks, residential complexes, and renewable energy integration further fueled demand for 12 kV RMUs, ensuring efficient and reliable power distribution.
According to 6Wresearch, Brazil Ring Main Unit Market revenue is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.9% during 2025-2031. Brazil's Ring Main Unit (RMU) market is growing rapidly, driven by efforts to modernize energy infrastructure, enhance grid reliability, and expand renewable energy capacity. Although the COVID-19 pandemic temporarily disrupted supply chains and delayed projects due to dependencies on imported copper and electronics, the market rebounded strongly as restrictions eased and projects resumed. In 2024, total investments in the power sector reached R$ 259.3 billion (US$ 45.5 billion), marking a 15% increase compared to 2023. This surge in investment has significantly boosted the RMU market, supporting Brazil's transition toward a more reliable and sustainable energy infrastructure.
Additionally, Brazil operated 890 wind farms across 12 states in 2023, with 85% located in the Northeast, according to the Brazilian Wind Power Association (ABEEOLICA).Key government initiatives, such as the National Energy Plan (PNE 2050) and the Energy Transmission Expansion Program (PET), are pivotal in advancing grid modernization. Investments in distributed generation, transmission, and distribution projects are projected to surpass $100 billion by 2029. Emerging trends, including the integration of big data, AI, and machine learning into grid operations, are set to further boost demand for intelligent RMUs, ensuring efficient and reliable energy distribution across the country.
According to Shubham Deep, Senior Research Analyst, 6Wresearch, Air-insulated Ring Main Units (RMUs) held the largest share of the Brazil RMU market in terms of revenue. These RMUs are suitable for a wide range of applications, including rural and semi-urban areas. Additionally, air-insulated RMUs are considered an environmentally friendly alternative to gas-insulated RMUs, as they do not contain SF6 gas, a potent greenhouse gas.
