Power
transformers connect electrical networks or systems of different
voltages to allow power exchange between them. Power transformers are
used for power generation, power transmission, electro-intensive
industrial applications, and consumer applications. The demand for
power transformers is expected to continually increase due to
increasing electrification ratio in emerging as well as mature
economies. The continual enhancement of technology and progressive
research and development initiatives are driving the market for large
power transformers with improved features and specifications
considering the regional and global environmental regulations.
Large
Power Transformers Market Description:
Favorable
government regulations for production of green energy and power are
also expected to fuel the growth of the power transformers market
over the forecast period. Global environmental concerns highlight the
need for lower emissions and water conservation in both existing and
new power plants. As a result, leading companies such as Alstom have
developed and introduced green transformers for environmentally
delicate zones. Similarly, Crompton Greaves Ltd. designed, produced,
and installed extremely low noise power transformers for
environmentally critical regions. Such innovative and environmentally
friendly products are expected to witness strong demand in the future
due to rising environmental concerns. Therefore, the degree of
competition is analyzed to grow from medium to high over the forecast
period.
Based
on the geographical segmentation of the global large power
transformers market, Asia Pacific region occupied the largest market
share in 2013, which can be attributed to rising energy demands
coupled with technological advancements in this region. The Asia
Pacific region is expected to account for majority of the global
growth over the forecast period. However, this region has a large
unorganised sector and the market in this region is highly fragmented
with the presence of many local players. Rest of the World economies
such as the Middle East and Africa are expected to steadily expand
their power infrastructures, attracting intense competition from
global as well as regional market players. Mature economies in North
America and Europe regions are expected to observe steady growth
owing to the various modernization and upgradation initiatives. The
countries in these regions are undertaking such initiatives to boost
the power generation in order to meet rising demands.
The
global large power transformers market has been segmented by power
rating into 100 MVA to 500 MVA large power transformers, 501 MVA to
800 MVA large power transformers, and 801 MVA to 1200 MVA large power
transformers. Large power transformers between the power ratings
range of 100 MVA and 500 MVA are expected to exhibit the fastest
growth until 2019, with an estimated CAGR of 8.0% in terms of revenue
from 2013 to 2019. This growth is attributed to the fact that lower
rating transformers are the most widely used by utilities around the
globe.
High
Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) transformers fall under the 501 MVA to
800 MVA large power transformers segment. HVDC transformers are
either built as single-phase or three-phase units, depending on
voltage, power and transportation considerations. The 501 MVA to 800
MVA large power transformers segment is expected to witness a steady
growth in the next six years. Furthermore, the large power
transformers between the power ratings of 801 MVA and 1200 MVA are
expected to be used for HVDC and UHVDC power generation in the Asia
Pacific and Middle East regions on account of rising energy demands
in these regions over the forecast period.
