Submarine Power Cable Market Analysis

The submarine power cable market is experiencing significant growth globally. This growth is attributed to the increasing investment in offshore wind energy plants and the rise in cross-country submarine connections for power transmission. Moreover, the rise in the development of the underwater data center is anticipated to drive market growth in the coming years.

Submarine Power Cable Market Overview

A submarine power cable is a transmission cable for holding electric power below the surface of the water. These are called "submarines" because they generally carry electric power beneath salt water (seas, arms of the ocean, straits, etc.). Still, it is also possible to use submarine power cables beneath fresh water (large lakes and rivers).

Submarine Power Cable Market Drivers and Opportunities

Increasing Investment In Offshore Wind Energy Plants to Favor Market

The increasing investment in offshore wind energy can significantly drive the submarine power cable market. The increasing demand for infrastructure by the offshore wind farms to transmit the generated electricity to the terrestrial areas. Furthermore, the number of online offshore wind farms is increasing. For instance, offshore wind farms are growing in Europe. 2023 saw a record 4.2 GW of new offshore wind farms come into use, up 40% in 2022. And US$32 billion in new investments were announced, covering 9 GW that’ll be built over the coming years. The supply chain is also seeing a turnaround, with new factories announced in Denmark, Germany, Poland, the Netherlands and Spain.

Development in Underwater Data Centres.

Underwater data centers are submerged facilities endowed with power and cooling infrastructure that house computer servers and related IT equipment. These facilities aim to grow sustainability and efficiency in computing operations while also surveying new frontiers in data storage and processing technology. Several countries are investing in underwater data centers. For instance, in December 2023, China installed the data center module 35m deep on the seabed off the coast of Lingshui Li County, Hainan Province, by HiCloud, a division of Highlander. This company developed the data center in tests dating back to 2020.
