Global Distributed Fiber Optic Sensor Market Key Driver

Growing Hydropower Projects – Some of the Nordic nations, including Asian countries like China, India, Pakistan, etc., have been majorly focusing on the development of hydropower projects, owing to the increasing demand for power solutions from various sectors. This, in turn, catalyzes the construction of dams over rivers as well as the expansion of power transmission networks, hence increasing the demand for distributed fiber optic sensors. The distributed fiber optic sensors are also used for dam monitoring & developed dams are utilized for irrigation purposes.

Furthermore, hydroelectricity has been considered a renewable energy resource, therefore high penetration of renewable energy resources globally is expected to escalate the potential demand for distributed fiber optic sensors in the forecast years. Also, to construct hydropower projects, several companies are collaborating, hence aiding in driving the Distributed Fiber Optic Sensor Market share.

Global Distributed Fiber Optic Sensor Market Growth Opportunity

Expansion of Electric Utilities in Rural Areas – The rising urbanization in several regions, such as Africa, Asia-Pacific, some parts of the Middle East, etc., has necessitated the requirement for electricity. Due to this, various electric utilities are in the development stage in rural parts of the world. This is also leading to the diversification of transmission lines, thus accelerating the installation.

Moreover, the expansion of solar and wind power projects in nations across Europe, Asia-Pacific, etc., are also resulting in the expansion of electric utilities. Therefore, the rising expansion of electric utilities would likely fuel the demand for distributed fiber optic sensors in the forthcoming years. For instance, in 2022, Jordan’s National Electric Power Company started the construction of the Jordan-Iraq power transmission project. In addition, the 400KV and 300Km long transmission lines would connect the Al-Risha substation in Jordan with the Al-Qaim electrical transformation station in Iraq and the project would be accomplished by Dubai Cable Company.

Global Distributed Fiber Optic Sensor Market Challenge

High Cost of Distributed Fiber Optic Sensors – In various end-user industries, distributed fiber optic sensors have become desirable due to their various advantages like monitoring of difficult work environments and gaining real-time data with high accuracy. However, the relatively high cost of distributed fiber optic sensors is restricting its installations in many areas and its maintenance cost is also considered high, which is still not affordable by many companies requiring real-time monitoring and sensing. Therefore, this negative aspect related to high cost is posing a challenge to the Global Distributed Fiber Optic Sensor Market.

Global Distributed Fiber Optic Sensor Market Key Trend

Technological Advancements in Distributed Fiber Optic Sensors – Currently, the integration of advanced technologies, such as Real-Time Thermal Rating (RTTR) and intelligent Distributed Acoustic Sensor (iDAS) technologies, etc., are some of the prominent trends observed in the industry. In parallel, a rising number of investments by distributed fiber optic sensor companies to carry out research & development for introducing innovative fiber cables and providing reliable connectivity at high speed and the lowest possible price is emerging as a trend across the Distributed Fiber Optic Sensor Industry.
