South Korea Cathodic Protection Market to Reach USD 304.4 Million by 2035 - Growth Accelerates in Offshore Wind, Hydrogen, and Pipeline Infrastructure Across Key Provinces
The South Korea cathodic protection (CP) market is set for robust expansion through 2035, fueled by offshore wind energy, hydrogen pipeline networks, and stringent corrosion regulations. According to Future Market Insights (FMI), the market is valued at USD 186.9 million in 2025 and is projected to hit USD 304.4 million by 2035, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.0%.The FMI report, "Cathodic Protection Industry Analysis in South Korea Size, Share, and Forecast Outlook 2025 to 2035," projects an additional USD 117.5 million in revenues over the decade, driven by investments in renewable energy, marine infrastructure, and smart corrosion monitoring technologies.
A Decade of Growth Anchored by ICCP Advancements and Hydrogen Initiatives:
Sacrificial anode cathodic protection (SACP) currently leads due to cost-effectiveness in marine and offshore applications, while impressed current cathodic protection (ICCP) gains momentum for large-scale projects. From 2025 to 2030, the market is expected to add approximately USD 52.3 million, propelled by offshore wind farms and subsea cable expansions.
Between 2030 and 2035, FMI anticipates another USD 65.2 million in growth, supported by AI-integrated remote monitoring, predictive maintenance, and the Uljin Nuclear Hydrogen National Industrial Complex-a KRW 400 billion (USD 300 million) project launched in 2024 to advance carbon neutrality by 2050.
"ICCP systems with IoT and AI enhancements are revolutionizing long-term asset protection in high-stakes environments like hydrogen pipelines and nuclear cooling systems," said an FMI research analyst. "These technologies minimize downtime and operational costs while ensuring regulatory compliance."
