Market Trends and Five Popular Cable Types in the Energy Cables Market in the Second Half of 2025

With the global energy structure transformation and the acceleration of infrastructure construction, energy cables, as an important component of the power system, are experiencing a strong growth period. Whether in clean energy, urban distribution, or high-end industrial applications, choosing the right cable solution is crucial for ensuring the stable operation of projects.

This article will introduce the five most notable types of energy cables in the second half of 2025, along with their respective application fields and market prospects, to help overseas clients and foreign trade exporters better grasp the industry trends.

Ⅰ.What changes are taking place in the global cable market?

The acceleration of green energy projects: Wind power, photovoltaic, and energy storage are driving the rapid growth in demand for high-voltage and photovoltaic cables.

Infrastructure-intensive construction: Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Africa and other regions are making large-scale investments in power, power grids and industrial parks.

Safety regulations are constantly being upgraded: fire-resistant, explosion-proof, low-smoke and halogen-free cables have become the "must-haves" for high-standard projects.

The Rise of Intelligence and Data Centers: The Construction of Smart Grids and Data Centers Promotes the Expansion of High-Performance Cable Applications.

In future power development, high-performance energy cables will become a core component to support green energy projects and smart grid construction. Especially in India, the Middle East, Africa and other countries, the large-scale application of energy cables will become a trend.

II. Analysis of Five Popular Energy Cables' Types in 2025

1️⃣ High Voltage/Ultra High Voltage Cables

Suitable for power transmission systems of 66kV and above, such as wind farms, photovoltaic power stations, and large industrial parks. They feature strong insulation, high-temperature resistance, and long lifespan, making them one of the core products for large-scale new energy transmission projects.

Recommended markets: India, the Middle East, Africa, and emerging power countries.

2️⃣ Medium-voltage power cables

They are commonly used in 6~35kV distribution networks, substations and heavy industrial supporting facilities, and are  one of the energy cable products of urban power grid renovation and industrial upgrading.

Recommended markets: Industrial parks and infrastructure projects in Southeast Asia, Latin America and South Asia.

3️⃣ Low-voltage power cables

Commonly used in 0.6/1kV building power and civil distribution systems, suitable for residential buildings, shopping malls, factories, and other projects.

Recommended markets: Conventional construction markets in almost all countries, suitable for bulk supply.

4️⃣ Solar PV Cable

Designed specifically for solar power stations and rooftop photovoltaic systems, it features UV resistance, high-temperature endurance, and corrosion resistance, which is ideal DC energy cables solution for connecting clean energy equipment.

Recommended markets: Europe, the Middle East, South America, Southeast Asia, and other regions with rapid growth in photovoltaic installations.

5️⃣ Fire-resistant / Flame-retardant Cables

Such as BTTW, YTTW, MICC and other models, they have excellent fire resistance and smoke control performance, and are widely used in critical facilities such as subways, hospitals, data centers, and tunnels.

Recommended markets: Countries and projects with high requirements for building safety standards, such as the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and European and American countries.
