What is the market outlook for copper core cables?


Power cables, as an important resource in human society, involve many factors such as resources and environmental protection. It also advocates the widespread application of transformers and energy-efficient motors in the electrical field. Using copper core cables with excellent conductivity can greatly save energy, protect earth resources, and play an important role in helping most countries avoid global warming and protect the ecological environment.

  Power cables, as an important resource in human society, involve many factors such as resources and environmental protection. It also advocates the widespread use of transformers and energy-efficient motors in the electrical field. Using copper core cables with excellent conductivity can greatly save energy, protect earth resources, and play an important role in avoiding global warming and protecting the ecological environment for most countries.

  In recent years, China has had a significant gap with developed countries and international advanced levels in promoting the use of energy-saving power cables, which is largely related to the use of energy-saving materials and technologies. Surveys show that the application of copper in the US industry grows by 5% annually, and in France, Germany, Italy, and the UK, it grows by 2.3%~4.2% annually. In order to narrow the gap between China and international advanced levels in energy saving, huge energy-saving potential can be obtained by promoting the use of energy-saving electrical appliances and copper core cables.

  Due to copper's excellent performance in power transmission, it is widely used as insulated and non-insulated cables for transmitting high, medium, and low voltage power, as well as measuring the conductivity of other materials. Copper has excellent conductivity, flexibility, corrosion resistance, ductility, and renewability. This makes it a safer conductor for buildings. Copper is an important component of motors and transformers, widely used in manufacturing, engineering decoration, transportation, and home environments.

 In the past, urban residents mainly used electricity for lighting and household appliances. Now they use electricity for heating, and in the future, they will use smart sweeping robots, electrostatic dust removers, electric vehicles. The demand for electricity from high-rise buildings, modern entertainment and business centers, and modern office automation equipment is still changing rapidly.

  To cope with this rapid development and change, the maximum margin has been adopted in power supply design. Even so, it may not be able to meet the needs of urban development. When copper core cables still need to be designed with the maximum margin, if they are replaced with aluminum alloy cables with a cross-sectional area 1.6 times larger than that of copper, plus a certain percentage of margin, this is unimaginable and unachievable.

  In recent years, China has had a significant gap with developed countries and international advanced levels in promoting the use of effective energy-saving power cables, which is largely related to the use of effective energy-saving materials and technologies. Therefore, energy saving and environmental protection are also issues that power grid enterprises must consider. The recycling rate of aluminum cables is very low, while all copper core cables can be recycled. Aluminum is easily oxidized, while copper is not, and aluminum is afraid of corrosion. All these have led to the actual expenditure of power enterprises on copper core cables being far higher than the cost reduction brought about by its low price. Data show that the production process of aluminum cables has a greater impact on social environmental protection than copper core cables. In addition, from the perspective of energy saving, aluminum cables are clearly inferior to copper core cables.
