SUPERCONDUCTOR WIRE MARKET REPORT OVERVIEW

Global superconductor wire market size was USD 0.56 billion in 2023 and is projected to touch USD 1.09 billion by 2032, at CAGR of 7.7% during the forecast period. Asia-Pacific is dominating the superconductor wire market share in 2023.

Superconducting elements are used to create superconducting wires, which display negligible electrical resistance when chilled under a low temp (the transition temperature). The superconductor material is frequently employed as a filament and, in theory, permits an electric charge to travel across any circle of superconductor wire without interruption. Mass spectroscopy, beam-steering magnets in subatomic particles, MRI/NMR equipment, and other devices all make substantial use of superconductor magnets. Superconducting wires have recently been used in electric engines, converters, smart grid technology, and energy storage systems.

Due to the rising use of superconductors in numerous sectors, the market for the wire is anticipated to experience significant expansion in the upcoming years. Additionally, the market for superconducting wire is anticipated to grow due to the major benefits of employing wires rather than a traditional cable. Compared to the commonly used normal cables, a superconductor wire may carry a significant amount of voltage.

COVID-19 IMPACT

"Close Down of Manufacturing Plants due to the Pandemic"

In many different parts of the world, the COVID-19 pandemic has had an impact. To slow the pandemic's rapid spread, governments all across the world put in place stringent lockdown regulations and social segregation standards. During the pandemic's early phases, manufacturing plants all over the globe were closed down. Additionally, the economic downturn that followed the pandemic may cause a large postponement in the commercial launch of the market for superconductor wire. As a result of the supply chain disruptions that were noticed, market participants faced several difficulties. On the other hand, as more supplies went online, things got better in the second quarter of 2022.

LATEST TRENDS

"Creation of Second Generation HTS Materials for the Purpose of Commercial Use "

Scientists have made headway in creating "second generation" HTS materials that work at temperatures beyond the liquid nitrogen boiling point and have thicknesses that are comparable to first-generation elements, making them potentially more useful for commercial exploitation. In general, superconductor research is primarily focused on enhancing their functionality and lowering their price, which will render them increasingly universally available for usage in real world applications.

DRIVING FACTORS

"Increasing Attention on Boosting Power Efficiency and Cutting Power Loss are Promoting Growth of Industry"

Cables with superconductivity are known as superconducting cables and are created from composite materials. They are able to transmit electricity with great efficiency without wasting energy or crowding the electric current. The heat of the wires is less compared to a typical conductor since they lose less heat. Higher cooling capacity allows use of thin wires, which results in smaller conductors, and increases maximum power rating. New methods of transmitting power are being used all over the world to keep up with the demand for transporting electricity with the fewest losses possible. By decreasing transmission losses and enabling better control of supply peaks or troughs, the greater efficiency would assist in reducing environmental harm in addition to energy consumption. Superconductors, such as steel tape covered in tin oxide, could take the role of conductive material in a power wire, saving money as the tape is simple to make.

"Growing Utilization in the Medical Industry is Contributing to the Current Increase of the Market "

There are many factors contributing to the current increase in the market for high temperature superconductor. Engineering, electricity transmission, and medical science are just a few of its many fields of application. These wires' superconducting properties can be employed in MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) machines to diagnose many disorders inside the human body without subjecting the patient to damaging radiation. This has a big advantage over traditional medical diagnostic technologies such as CT scans, which expose people to radioactive fallout. In addition, high temperature superconductor wire is utilized in equipment including electron accelerators, particle beam therapy, and magnetic resonance spectrometers.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

"Costs Associated with these Wires as well as Absence of Skilled Labor are Anticipated to Disrupt the Market Expansion "

The forecasted expansion of the market may be hampered by the expensive production and maintenance expenses of superconducting wires. The high costs of the wires may make it difficult for small and medium-sized manufacturers to expand, as a result of their inability to absorb these expenditures. A major hindrance to the superconductor wire market growth may be the absence of qualified specialists in the sector.
