According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Solid State Transformer Market is accounted for $117.58 million in 2022 and is expected to reach $248.73 million by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 13.3% during the forecast period. Solid-state transformers (SST) are made up of high-power semiconductors, control circuits, and high-frequency transformers. It is also known as a smart transformer or an intelligent universal transformer. Smart transformers provide increased control flexibility in power distribution networks, enabling for seamless AC-DC and DC-AC conversions as needed. It is being used in a variety of applications, including alternative energy generation, traction trains, the power grid, and the electric industry. When linked to the electricity grid, solid-state transformers handle voltage changes independently.

According to the Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Promotion Alliance, the country had 1.2 million stations in 2019 and is planning to increase this count by 600,000 by the end of 2020.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Modernization of aging power distribution infrastructure

The upgrade of ageing power distribution systems is projected to fuel SST market growth. The industry is projected to benefit from the growing demand for intelligent and upgraded power distribution infrastructure. Furthermore, government regulations to improve grid efficiency are driving the adoption of smart transformers across multiple utility and energy sectors. In addition, the market is likely to expand as a result of the benefits provided by SST. SST has a number of advantages, including efficient power transmission, AC to DC conversion, and bidirectional power flow.

Restraint:

Lack of knowledge and awareness

Solid-state transformer adoption is projected to decline dramatically in both developing and developed countries. Because end users, such as utilities and industrial players, have little expertise of Solid-state transformer technology. This can make it difficult for firms to understand the technology's benefits and possible applications. Solid-state transformers are viewed as a vital facilitator for the development of future electric power systems. The lack of awareness of the utilisation of semiconductor transformers in numerous applications is projected to impede market expansion even more.

Opportunity:

Growth in new power electronics

When compared to traditional transformer technology, solid-state transformer technology is in its infancy; periodic improvements in many design features will improve the functionality and lifespan cycle of solid-state transformers. Because they are composed of several high-powered power electronic components, any innovation in these areas will benefit the solid-state transformer market over the forecast period. Various research institutes throughout the world are actively engaged in solid-state technology research and development. Proactive research investigations are also required and are currently being conducted around the world to accelerate the product development process.

Threat:

High implementation cost

Solid-state transformers are now more expensive than other types of traditional transformers due to the use of high-powered power electronic components and streamlined technology. As a result, smart transformers are not widely accepted in impoverished and emerging countries around the world. Furthermore, SSTs have performance limitations due to their reliability and are not widely commercialised. The high implementation cost of solid-state transformers limits industry growth.

COVID-19 Impact

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant influence on the global smart transformer market, with the majority of companies/industries going out of business. The regional lockdown impacted the operations of various power distribution firms, resulting in a decrease in demand for transformers across industries. Renewable energy generation is the most important smart transformer application, and it has been seriously impacted by the pandemic. The pandemic's detrimental impact on renewable energy generation has caused a delay in the development of a solid-state transformer project. As a result, this has a significant impact on the commissioning of various renewable projects.

The power solid state transformer segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The power solid state transformer segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth. The increasing rate of greenhouse gas emissions, combined with the rising usage of non-renewable energy sources such as uranium, coal, oil, and other fossil fuels, is expected to drive the use of solid-state transformers in power grids. Because these SSTs are inexpensive, they are projected to be more widely used in developing regions such as Asia Pacific and Latin America. Power transformer demand is also rising as a result of increased industrialization and modernization, supporting the global solid-state transformers market.

The renewable power generation segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The renewable power generation segment is anticipated to witness the fastest CAGR growth during the forecast period, because of the acceptability of these transformers for alternative power generation using non-conventional energy sources such as solar, wind, and tidal energy. The renewable energy generation section is further subdivided into wind, tidal, and solar power. Smart transformers are required for better power management in renewable energy generating such as wind turbines and solar panels.

Region with largest share:

Asia Pacific is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period owing to the increased investment in smart grid technologies and growing demand for electricity, there has been an increase in investment in power infrastructure throughout the region. The numerous infrastructural initiatives promoted by developing countries to create necessary demand for commercial trade provide great room for growth in this region's semiconductor transformer industry. China has the greatest market share and dominates the regional market. Due to the region's high need for smart grids and energy, especially traction locomotives, China has the fastest expanding solid state transformer market.

Region with highest CAGR:

Europe is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period, owing to the presence of key players in the region. The need for power distribution systems is likely to rise as numerous foreign corporations boost their investments. New technical breakthroughs in the industrial sector, together with an increase in the number of electric vehicles in the region, are likely to enhance the market outlook even further. Furthermore, various current contracts by key businesses are expected to boost the industry in the region.
