2025 Electrical Distribution Outlook: A Mixed Bag with Bright Spots Ahead 

According to DISC Corp’s latest construction vertical forecast, 2025 is expected to be nearly flat, with 2024 down just -0.1% overall. While Q2 may bring a deceleration driven by tariff uncertainty and economic ambiguity, the landscape quickly shifts:

📉 Q2: Down -3.44% sequentially | YoY -0.7%

📈 Q3: Rebound with +11.77% sequential growth | YoY +0.42%

📉 Q4: Pullback of -12.35% sequentially | YoY still up +1.06%

Despite the bumps, long-term indicators are promising. The rise of AI, robotics, 3D printing, and sustainable manufacturing is setting the stage for a stronger, more resilient industrial sector. The momentum behind “Made in the USA” is real — and it’s driving historic investment:

-$500B from Apple

-$100B from TSMC

-$27B from Eli Lilly

-Major projects from Panasonic Energy, Corning, and Flex

These projects will fuel the need for advanced electrical solutions across the country.
