LONDON, Dec. 19, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- "The APFC market to grow at a CAGR of 4.6% between 2016 and 2022"
The global APFC market is estimated to be worth USD 4.78 billion by 2022, growing at a CAGR of 4.6% between 2016 and 2022. A key driving factor for the growth of the market is the growing demand for power management devices in industries. The adoption of APFCs in most of the industries such as manufacturing, commercial, utility, enterprise, and military is a driving the APFC market growth. The APFCs saves power, manages power factor, and reduce electricity cost, thereby acting as the driver for the market.

"Utility industry is expected to exhibit the impressive growth in the APFC market during the forecast period"
Most of the utility industries started adopting APFCs for improving the quality of reactive power and also for reducing power losses in distribution systems. Utility industries, such as power plants, cause current harmonics due to the presence of non-linear loads. These current harmonics reduction has been done by APFC panels; hence, protect the electronic devices from damage. Additionally, most of the utility industries put efforts to improve the power factor begin with banks of medium-voltage capacitors installed in the high-voltage and medium-voltage transformer substations. Vendors that provide APFCs for the utility industry include Eaton Corporation (Ireland), General Electric (U.S.), Schneider Electric SE (France), and Texas Instruments Inc. (U.S.), among others.

"APAC region to be the fastest-growing market for automatic power factor controllers"
The market in APAC is expected to grow at the highest CAGR between 2016 and 2022, owing to the increasing industrialization and urbanization in this region. The growing investments for infrastructure development in the Asia-pacific region have increased the demand for power management devices. Automatic power factor controller is one such device that helps to maintain the power factor and reduces losses in electric systems. Japan, China, India, and South Korea cover the maximum APFC market in the APAC region.
