Transformer Oil Market Size, Share, Growth and Global Industry Analysis By Type & Application, Regional Insights and Forecast to 2024-2032
Growth Factors of Transformer Oil Market
The transformer oil market size was valued at USD 2.97 billion in 2022, and the market is now projected to grow from USD 3.15 billion in 2023 to USD 4.88 billion by 2030, exhibiting a CAGR of 6.4% during the forecast period of 2023-2030.
The COVID-19 pandemic affected the transportation of equipment and closed many plants, affecting the transformer oil market growth in several ways. During lockdown many companies were either unable to manufacture transformers or were unable to continue construction work, implying that there was decreased demand and therefore reduced sales of transformers. Similarly, travel bans across countries affected project delivery, as the movement was also limited. However, the transformers market recovered in the post-pandemic period, so sales increased and there was positive growth in 2021.
High-performance computing is responsible for high electricity consumption due to areas of application such as fraud detection and healthcare. With this increasing demand, the transformer oil market share is anticipated to increase. At the same time, the increasing popularity of electric cars puts pressure on governments to expand utility networks around the world. For instance, based on the statistics from the International Energy Agency, electric vehicles used approximately 110 TWh of electricity in 2022. Such escalation in transmission and distribution levels will lead to high demand for new transmission and distribution transformers.
Further, with the rapid advancement of UHV DC transmission technology, UHV power transformers have become necessary for long-distance power transmission. The energy demand is growing all over the world still need to adopt renewable energy which led to the need to transmit electricity from far areas. These renewable resources are mainly dependent on the place and therefore, the need for long-distance transmission is vital. For this process, nearly 2 kiloliters of transformer oil is used and hence UHV power transformers are crucial. Therefore, long-distance transmission is anticipated to dictate the trading of the transmission oil market in the future.
