Description
Electrical steel market size and outlook report, grain oriented electrical steel (GOES), by non-grain oriented electrical steel (NGOES) by applications (transformers, transport, wind energy, white goods, electric motors and others), by demand, by volume and value terms, 2020- 2029
Market Insight
Electrical steel demand is expected to grow moderately over the next ten year. However, year-on-year demand growth will be trending upward owing to factors such as rising production of electric vehicles, smart transformers and wind turbines. Commodity Inside ascertains that electrical steel demand will reach nearly 20 million tonnes by 2029.
China will continue to be the largest producer and consumer of electrical steel in the world as it is the most significant consumer of electricity as well as the largest exporter of electrical goods. In China, future demand for grain oriented electrical steel (GOES) demand would be mainly driven by the up-gradation of conventional power infrastructure to the smart grids equipped with highly efficient smart transformers. China’s fast deployment of electric vehicle charging infrastructure is also driving the demand for GOES as it is used in transformers of fast-charging stations.
Substantial growth in the Chinese wind energy and industrial sectors is also driving demand for non-grain oriented electrical steel (NGOES) for wind turbines and industrial motors. The fastest-growing electric vehicles industry is further creating a huge demand for high-efficiency NGOES in China. China’s 14th Five-Year Plan to be launched in 2020 is expected to bring some challenges and opportunities for the electrical steel market.
China will play a key role in demand and supply dynamics for the global electrical steel industry going forward. Commodity Inside expects that the global GOES market is likely to turn to the deficit by the end of the forecast period if not enough capacity added. GOES prices to be volatile at the end of the forecast period and are likely to be on a high plateau with demand in a full swing. So far, there have not been made any serious announcements for capacity additions publically, though China is regularly adding capacity quietly.
