The global market is being supported by the growing demand for energy and the refurbishment of ageing grid technology. Many developed economies are currently investing in the renovation of ageing grid infrastructure, further developing sustainable electrical networks in order to deliver electricity generated from renewable sources. The increased demand to adopt renewable energy sources owing to the rising environmental concern is a crucial trend in electric insulator market.
One of the main functions of insulators is to provide protection against the harmful effects of electricity, making them useful in networks for electricity transmission and distribution (T&D). Furthermore, because of properties such as low thermal expansion and high dielectric strength, insulators find extensive applications in various industries as a safety measure.
Moreover, rapid urbanisation and growing industrialisation in the developing nations is leading to increased demand for energy, thus, leading to the expansion of transmission and distribution (T&D) infrastructure in electric insulator industry. The government in such regions are also encouraging the adoption of renewable energy sources by providing subsidies and other benefits to consumers and electric insulator manufacturers. This is expected to further aid the global electric insulator market growth over the forecast period.
As per the electric insulator market dynamics and trends, Aerogel Core, a spin-out company of the University of Bath announced that they have developed ultra-light ‘aerogels which offer soundproofing and can be used in the aerospace and automotive industries.
As per the electric insulator industry analysis, there has been an increase in studies on the behaviour of exotic materials. Scientists are studying topological insulator which allows electricity conduction along the edges but provides insulation in the overall remaining body. This insulator can find promising applications in the next generation of electronics such as spintronic devices.
Engineers in Australia in collaboration with the University of New South Wales, have developed a new way to make power-pole insulators more resistant to fire and electrical sparking, which can contribute to the growth of the electric insulator industry. They published their findings in the journal Advanced Composites and Hybrid Materials, which stated that they have enhanced the performance and safety of insulation materials for power poles at the lab scale.
CWI and the Eindhoven University of Technology have initiated a Green Sparks project in collaboration with Hitachi Energy Ltd, to determine eco-friendly alternatives to the electric insulator, SF6, which is used in high-voltage switches and emits a large number of greenhouse gases. Sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) is known for its excellent insulation properties but is one of the strongest greenhouse gases, which necessitates the demand for viable alternatives, that can also enhance the electric insulator industry revenue in the long run.

An electric insulator is a material with weak electrical conductivity due to lack of free-flowing electrical charges. When an electromotive force (EMF) source is applied, it displays characteristics such as high resistivity and helps to regulate the electric current flow efficiently. Besides this, electric insulators prevent the current from flowing in the direction where it is not needed. Thus, electric insulators are commonly utilised in coating wires, in electricity distribution networks, and as dielectrics in capacitors.
