Oct 18, 2023

The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) provided a USD 50 million loan to United Metals Company (UMC), an Egyptian copper rod manufacturer. This funding will support UMC's working capital needs, particularly for importing copper cathodes crucial for cable production.

Sep 23, 2022

Saudi Geological Survey announced the discovery of new gold and copper ore deposits in the holy city of Madinah, with gold deposits found within the Aba Al-Raha boundaries and copper ore discovered in the Al-Madiq area of Wadi Al-Faraa.

Robust growth of the construction sector

Saudi Arabia is considered the most active player in the Middle East construction sector, with the country’s total value of capital projects estimated to be USD 1.2 trillion. Further, the UAE comes second with about USD 713 billion.

Copper products are vital in the industrial sector

In the GCC countries, the oil sector contributes about one-third to the total GDP. Copper finds application in pump impellers, valve stems, pump shafts, and other industrial equipment. Further, in the aviation sector, copper square bars are used in the engines of rockets, helicopters, and other aircraft.

Copper products are 100% recyclable

The incorporation of copper products greatly improves life-cycle costs and energy efficiency. On average, copper products comprise over 35% of recycled content, which lowers the copper's impact on the environment. Further, copper is fully recyclable making it an ideal material to help end users boost their sustainability.

Rising adoption of EVs aids the demand for copper products such as busbars

Copper is used in motors, batteries, inverters, wiring, and charging stations for electric vehicles. Copper busbars play pivotal roles in EVs to distribute electric current from the batteries to the vehicle’s components and systems.

Middle East Copper Rod and Busbar Market Trends

Solar energy investments in the Middle East are anticipated to triple between 2022 and 2027. Copper busbars are widely employed in solar panels as they enhance panel performance and durability.

Additionally, copper is a vital component in rechargeable batteries and renewable power systems, crucial in producing green energy in the region. The increasing government investment in clean energy projects is expected to aid the Middle East copper rod and busbar market.

Copper rods are employed in the automotive sector in radiators and brake tubing as well as in EV charging stations. Further, copper wire rods are deployed in the automotive sector for wiring harnesses, ignition systems, and connectors. By 2025, Saudi Arabia aims to install 50,000 domestic charging stations to promote the adoption of EVs.

Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 programme is supporting the growth of its construction sector by envisioning mega-projects. Renowned mega construction projects in the Kingdom include Jeddah Economic City, the Red Sea Project, and the NEOM housing development project.

By end use, the construction sector dominates the Middle East copper rod and busbar market share

Saudi Arabia is the largest economy in the Middle East. The Saudi Arabian construction sector is backed by the Public Investment Fund, Saudi’s sovereign wealth fund. It is financing major giga-projects like Neom, a USD 500 billion futuristic city, and Red Sea Global, a USD 23.6 billion luxury tourism project. The UAE is also a prosperous country, with consumers increasingly investing in mega-construction projects. The ease of financing contributes to the growth of the region’s construction sector, which, in turn, supports the Middle East copper rod and busbar market expansion.

Within the industrial equipment sector of Middle East, the demand for transformers is driven by power generation, petrochemical, and infrastructure projects in countries, such as the UAE, Oman, and Saudi Arabia. The UAE and Saudi Arabia are among the major markets of transformers in the Middle East region.

The transformer is a crucial component in a substation. Power transformers for instance increase the voltage to transmit electric energy to the electricity-consuming area but also lower the voltage to the voltage used at all levels to meet the needs of electricity consumption. The expansion of the industrial sector in the region is expected to drive the growth of the Middle East copper rod and busbar market.
