Will Electrical Industry Succeed In Phasing out SF6 From MV Switchgear?

Medium-voltage switchgear is entering a period of rapid transformation.
Driven by rising renewable integration, evolving climate-policy targets, and accelerating global electrification, the MV switchgear market is expected to expand significantly in the coming years. At the same time, regulatory pressure on SF₆ — the most potent greenhouse gas used in electrical equipment — is reshaping technology choices, investment priorities, and long-term grid strategies.

In this webinar hosted by Power Technology Research (PTR), our market analysts provide a data-driven overview of the MV switchgear landscape, SF₆ usage across industries, environmental implications, and the future of SF₆-free technologies. This webinar presents an overview of the climate-change policies and current legislation governing the use of SF₆ in MV switchgear. Additionally, we analyze the impact on the global MV switchgear market following the European Commission’s recent proposal to ban SF₆ in all new switchgear after 2030.

Drawing on PTR’s comprehensive market intelligence, the session covers:

  • Current MV switchgear market sizing and trends

  • Key differences between AIS and GIS technologies

  • The role of SF₆ and its associated environmental challenges

  • Renewable-driven demand shaping the next decade of MV switchgear

  • Global and EU-specific policy developments and their market impact

  • Market-ready SF₆ alternatives and their adoption outlook

Whether you’re a manufacturer, utility, EPC, or investor, this session provides essential insight into how regulatory, technological, and market forces are converging — and what that means for the future of MV switchgear.
