Sulfur Hexafluoride Market Analysis
The Sulfur Hexafluoride Market size is estimated at 77.69 kilotons in 2024, and is expected to reach 98.26 kilotons by 2029, growing at a CAGR of greater than 4% during the forecast period (2024-2029).
The Sulfur Hexafluoride market was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic as the electricity demand has been reduced significantly. Governments around the globe were compelled to reduce business activity in response to minimize the impact of coronavirus. The COVID pandemic changed lifestyles globally as people mainly stayed at home and worked from home. Hence, there is a significant increase in residential load demand while there is a substantial decrease in commercial and industrial loads. However, post-COVID pandemic in recent years with surplus supplies, the energy market is presently at a historic low, which is expected to affect the demand for the sulfur hexafluoride market.
- The growing demand for electricity in developing countries and the increasing applications in the medical sector are expected to drive the market for sulfur hexafluoride.
- The stringent environmental regulations against sulfur hexafluoride are expected to hinder the market's growth.
- The adoption of high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission in developing nations is expected to create opportunities for the market during the forecast period.
- The Asia-Pacific region is expected to dominate the market. It is also expected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period due to the rising demand for sulfur hexafluoride in the power, energy, and electronics end-user industries.
