The power distribution unit market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $3.84 billion in 2024 to $4.27 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increased data center demand, regulatory compliance, increased automation in industries, demand for high availability, globalization of businesses, increased focus on resilience.
The power distribution unit market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $6.55 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to smart cities development, focus on energy storage solutions, focus on sustainable practices, rising energy efficiency concerns, enhanced security features. Major trends in the forecast period include advancements in battery technologies, hybrid cloud adoption, ai and machine learning integration, remote management and automation, customization and scalability.
The growing number of data centers is anticipated to drive the expansion of the power distribution unit (PDU) market in the future. A data center is a physical facility that houses essential applications and data. A power distribution unit (PDU) supplies standard electrical outlets for data center equipment. For example, in February 2022, the Korea Data Center Council (KDCC), a Korea-based organization focused on advancing the data center industry in Korea, reported that the total capacity of colocation data centers' information technology (IT) load reached 430 MW, which constitutes 11% of the total IT load in the Asia-Pacific region. According to projections by Savills Korea, the overall commercial data center IT load in Korea is expected to grow by 700 MW between 2021 and 2023, representing 15% of the total capacity in the Asia-Pacific. Therefore, the increasing number of data centers is propelling the growth of the power distribution unit (PDU) market.
The rising adoption of IoT is projected to drive the growth of the power distribution unit (PDU) market in the future. The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the network of interconnected physical devices, vehicles, appliances, and other objects that are equipped with sensors, software, and network connectivity. Integrating IoT into power distribution units provides scalability and flexibility, allows for real-time monitoring and predictive maintenance, improves energy efficiency, optimizes energy consumption, and enhances overall system management. For instance, in March 2023, Exploding Topics, a U.S.-based online platform that offers insights into emerging and trending subjects, indicated that by 2030, there will be an estimated 25.4 billion IoT devices. Thus, the increasing adoption of IoT is fueling the growth of the power distribution unit market.
Leading companies in the power distribution unit market are concentrating on innovative products, such as intelligent PDU outlets, to boost their revenues. An intelligent power distribution unit (PDU) is a device that manages and distributes power to multiple devices. For instance, in October 2023, Panduit Corporation, a U.S.-based provider of network infrastructure solutions and services, launched the SmartZone 4-in-1 Outlet PDU. The SmartZone intelligent power distribution unit (PDU) outlets are engineered to provide exceptional reliability and previously unmatched outlet density. This innovative device is specifically designed for data centers that require greater flexibility in their energy monitoring and power distribution units. The G5 iPDU 4-in-1 outlets continuously monitor environmental conditions and electrical circuit overloads that could threaten critical IT equipment. Furthermore, the G5 iPDU 4-in-1 outlets offer superior connection flexibility with a compact design that allows a single outlet to function as either a C13/C15 or a C13/C15/C19/C21, accommodating C15/C21 high-temperature-rated power cords. They also deliver best-in-class outlet density and enhanced reliability.
