The Global DC Circuit Breaker Market is Growing Rapidly, and the Scale will Exceed 27 Billion Yuan in 2026

    DC circuit breakers can be widely used in electric power, power supply, electric vehicles, rail transit, ships, data centers and other fields.

    The DC circuit breaker is a circuit breaker used to break the DC circuit, and realizes the DC breaking when the current crosses the zero point. DC circuit breaker has a unique current limiting and arc extinguishing system, with strong current limiting capability, high accuracy of relay protection, automatic protection from overload and other properties, which can quickly determine the DC distribution system fault for opening and closing operation. DC circuit breaker is one of the main equipment of DC transmission lines. With the continuous expansion of DC power network construction scale, especially the rapid development of UHV DC power network, superimposed on the demand of other application fields, the DC circuit breaker market scale is growing.

    According to the different key breaking devices of DC circuit breakers, DC circuit breakers can be divided into three categories: mechanical DC circuit breakers, solid-state DC circuit breakers, and hybrid DC circuit breakers. Among them, the commonly used mechanical DC circuit breakers mainly include vacuum circuit breakers, sulfur hexafluoride circuit breakers, etc., which have the widest application range; the core component of solid-state DC circuit breakers is the thyristor, and the research in the field of application in China mainly focuses on ships, Aerospace and other fields; Hybrid DC circuit breaker is the product of combining mechanical and solid-state DC circuit breaker, which has the advantages of both and has become a hot spot for research and application.

    DC circuit breakers can be widely used in electric power, power supply, electric vehicles, rail transit, ships, data centers and other fields. In the field of electric power, with the adjustment of energy structure, the demand for grid connection of new energy power generation continues to increase. Since DC transmission lines can realize multi-power supply and multi-drop power supply, they can solve various problems caused by new energy grid connections. The scale continues to expand, driving the growing demand for DC circuit breakers. In addition, the rapid increase in the amount of data generation and the continuous increase in the number of data center construction have also become another important driving force for the increase in demand for DC circuit breakers.

    According to the “2022-2026 DC Circuit Breaker Industry In-depth Market Research and Investment Strategy Suggestion Report” released by the Xinsijie Industry Research Center, in 2021, the global DC circuit breaker market size will be about 16.3 billion yuan. Benefiting from the development of downstream power, data center, transportation and other industries, it is expected that from 2022 to 2026, the global DC circuit breaker market will grow rapidly at a compound annual growth rate of about 10.6%, and the market size will reach more than 27 billion yuan by 2026. . The global DC circuit breaker industry is developing strongly.

    According to industry analysts from Xinsijie, in the world, DC circuit breaker manufacturers mainly include ABB in Switzerland, Schneider in France, Legrand in France, Siemens in Germany, Eaton in the United States, Sensata Technologies in the United States, Mitsubishi in Japan, and Fuji Electric in Japan. In China, the leading manufacturers of DC circuit breakers mainly include Guodian NARI, Xuji Electric, Slocable, etc. Among them, ABB of Switzerland and Schneider of France are the world’s largest manufacturers of DC circuit breakers, with a combined market share of about 25%.
