Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/0d17f7/southeast_asian_tr)
has announced the addition of Frost & Sullivan's new report "Southeast
Asian Transmission and Distribution (T&D) Cables Market" to their
offering.
This research service focuses primarily on the growing transmission and
distribution cables market in Southeast Asia. The transmission and
distribution cables market in Southeast Asia is well developed and is
growing at a high rate. The structure of the cables industry is quite
stable and the market demand for both transmission and distribution
cables is expected to hit the rising trend. The factors that fuel the
growth of transmission and distribution cables market are increase in
power demand , keen interest shown by government to raise
infrastructural developments and the building and industrial
construction development.
Sound Economic Growth Delivers Positive Momentum for the Southeast Asian
T&D Cables Market
During the last ten years, the T&D cables market in Southeast Asia has
seen rapid development, responding to strong economic growth. The
increase in power demand, building and industrial construction
development, government interest in raising infrastructural
developments, and the power sector reforms that support overall energy
infrastructure development are the prominent factors driving growth in
domestic markets. Exports to other regions such as the Middle East,
Australia, America, Vietnam, and Indonesia also provide a fillip to the
growth of the cables market in the short and medium terms.
"Indonesia is the largest power cables market in Southeast Asia with its
intention to complete the power interconnecting line between major
islands and achieve electrification ratio up to 90 percent in the next
ten years," notes the analyst of this research service. "The recent boom
in the building and industrial construction sector in Vietnam is also
opening up new avenues for cable suppliers." The structure of the cables
industry is quite stable and the demand for both transmission and
distribution cables is expected to continue on an upward trajectory.
Both Vietnam and Indonesia had the highest T&D cables market compound
annual growth rate (CAGR) during the period from 2005 to 2008. The
Philippines offers the greatest potential for submarine electric cables.
Volatile Copper and Aluminum Prices Impact Market Dynamics
The recent fluctuation in the price of copper and aluminum has affected
the selling price of cables. Price and lead time are the major
competitive factors in the market. Aluminum and copper prices in South
East Asian countries had increased by almost 30 to 40 percent during
2007 to 2008 due to limited supply but are expected to decrease during
the coming years. The Southeast Asian countries import 60 percent to 70
percent of non-ferrous metal from countries such as China, Korea, and
Europe. "The high dependence on imported raw material adds further risks
to South East Asian manufacturers from fluctuation in global costs and
exchange rates," says the analyst. "End users and investors are
reluctant to make significant investments as doubts have emerged over
economic performance and the extent of the government's commitment."
Participants must work toward enhancing flexibility and adaptability
with changes in the business environment and standards and provide
comprehensive packages or customized solutions specifically designed for
each end-user group. For instance, in response to the dip in aluminum
and copper prices by 60 percent and 70 percent respectively, during the
third quarter of 2008, manufacturers in the Southeast Asian region
slashed cable prices using aluminum and copper conductors by 60 percent
and 50 percent, respectively. While lead times are variable and depend
on the production capacity of each company in the region, of late,
robust demand has considerably ratcheted up the lead time required to
supply cables. As companies are striving to provide a broader portfolio
of products, the industry is experiencing increasing consolidation.
