The E-house market in Middle East & Africa is expected to grow from US$ 435.35 million in 2022 to US$ 625.04 million by 2028. It is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.2% from 2022 to 2028.
Middle East & Africa Region Anticipated to Provide Growth Opportunities for E-House Market
The rapid growth of the mining and oil & gas sectors in the Middle East & Africa and increasing demand for E-houses from the utility industry in Africa will likely boost the market growth. Adding to this, Middle East & Africa countries, such as Iraq, recovering from a long civil war, are anticipated to provide lucrative growth opportunities in the near future. Iraq's government focuses on restoring basic amenities such as power supply to business entities and people. For instance, the Ministry of Electricity in Iraq ordered 12 mobile substations for its utility sector in 2017. The increasing power supply led to installing new substations, thus overcoming the power shortage issue in Iraq. Mozambique, Angola, and Libya are a few major countries with significant demand for E-house in the Middle East & Africa. One of the major E-house companies operating in the Middle East & Africa is Kontrolmatik; it manufactures turnkey prefabricated and containerized E-house at its Mobile Energy Solutions Factory in Ankara, Turkiye. The company is involved in the overall E-house system and associated processes, such as equipment supply to system integration, engineering to produce the entire system, factory tests to field testing, and commissioning. The increasing number of oil & gas projects (such as Upper Zakum - Production Capacity Enhancement, Ruwais Refinery Complex - Refinery Expansion, Zubair Oil Field - Rehabilitation Phase and Enhanced Re-Development Phase, Ras Laffan - Qatargas - NFE, Basra Gas Gathering Project, and Al Zour Refinery) in the Middle East & Africa is also providing growth opportunities for the Middle East & Africa E-house market . As per the International Union of Railways, the government of the gulf region is working toward formulating the gulf railways program. It is also investing in developing the railway infrastructure in the Middle East. For instance, the Railway Assembly of the Middle East (RAME) was formed to meet the future needs of freight and passengers. Moreover, railway systems mostly prefer E-house power substations as they are mobile and can be easily transported to the operation facility. The government is focusing on reducing railways expenditure, which is expected to propel the growth of the Middle East & Africa E-house market in the region. Moreover, the tight/rough working conditions at mining facilities puts the workforce at the greatest risk, leading to the shutdown of various mining operations. For instance, the platinum mines of South Africa have been idled since the last week of March 2019. Such instances negatively impact the demand for mobile substation E-houses. However, the South African government allowed the mining sector to operate with 50% of its production capacity during the lockdown. Such initiatives are likely to provide growth opportunities in the Middle East & Africa.
Market Overview
Saudi Arabia, UAE, South Africa, and the Rest of Middle East & Africa are the key contributors to the E-house market in the Middle East & Africa. The prominent industries across the region are mining, oil & gas, and telecommunications. Due to the growing mining sector, international players are heading toward South Africa to grow their businesses. For instance, in August 2022, Theta Gold Mines, an Australian gold mining company, announced to restart the construction of Transvaal Gold Mining Estate's (TGME) underground gold mines in South Africa by December 2022. Further, the Council of Economic and Development Affairs in Saudi Arabia launched a strategic framework 'Vision 2030' to increase the country's dependency on several public sectors such as healthcare, education, infrastructure, and tourism. Under Vision 2030, the development of several infrastructure projects is expected to undergo construction in the country. In September 2022, URB is developing the 'Dubai Urban Tech District' in Al Jaddaf, Dubai. The district covers 140,000 square meters of land and will be able to host various events such as conferences, business incubation programs, and seminars; the project is expected to start by 2024 and is set to be completed by 2030 in two phases. Such developments will require E-house during the construction process, which is likely to boost the Middle East & Africa E-house market.
