A number of emerging economies in Asia Pacific present lucrative options for players in the traction equipment market and several companies have been capitalizing on this opportunity in the recent past,” the lead author of the study states. A case in point would be Alstom SA, which has strengthened its footprint in China’s blossoming railway sector. Under the joint venture Shanghai Alstom Transport Electrical Equipment Co. Ltd, the company has supplied traction equipment not just for the Shanghai metro line but also the Nanjing metro line since 2014. Development and Expansion of Railway Networks Sole Driving Force “The global market for traction equipment is entirely dependent on the growth of the railway sector and investments in railways networks globally will impact the demand for traction equipment,” a lead analyst at TMR states. The surge in investments, the development and expansion of railway networks in countries such as the U.S., India, China, South Africa, and Spain, and the increase in favorable policies and regulations to curb emissions from transportation are the factors that have driven the demand for traction equipment thus far. However, TMR predicts that the global market will witness a rather slow growth in demand over the course of the forecast period. This is mainly due to the fact that the manufacturing and delivery time in this market is quite high and compared to the automobile sector the unit-wise shipment in the railway sector is exceptionally low. “Off-the-shelf sales are rare, as are replacement requests,” the analyst reports. This limits the demand for traction equipment. Asia Pacific Surges Ahead in Demand for Traction Equipment Transparency Market Research 2
