The report contains comprehensive quantitative data and qualitative analysis of the transformer markets, globally and for all regions and countries.
Generator Transformers Power Network Transformers Distribution Network Transformers
The markets for power and distribution transformers in 2017 in regions and major countries are analysed, with sales and the installed base by type of transformer and ownership. In an historical record, the six StatPlan Transformer Surveys are compared, with the installed base by type of transformer and ownership from 2012 to 2017.
The report predicts market trends in volume and value from 2017 to 2022, with the factors affecting price; input costs for raw materials, labour, energy and production capacity. Transformer production capacity is assessed in MVA by country and major manufacturer. Production capacity in tonnes and manufacturers of electrical steel are analysed. Market shares in value of the leading transformer manufacturers are listed.
The changing landscape of generation and the networks with the growth of DER and renewables, energy efficiency, logistics, electrification and other issues are identified and discussed, with commentary on the impact on transformers.
The report contains comprehensive quantitative data and qualitative analysis of the transformer markets, globally and for all regions and countries. Generator Transformers, Power Network Transformers, Distribution Network Transformers.

THE TRANSFORMATION PROCESS; GSU, POWER & DISTRIBUTION TRANSFORMERS
Transformers are needed at any stage where the voltage changes up or down. The stages and parameters are mapped as power is stepped up from generating plant to the high voltage transmission grid, down to medium voltage distribution grid and down to low voltage end user.
TRANSFORMER : GENERATOR CAPACITY RATIOS - MVA :
• By region and 124 countries-
• By type - GSU, Power Network Transformer, Distribution Network Transformer
TRANSFORMER PRODUCTION CAPACITY AND MANUFACTURERS
Production capacity is assessed, for transformer manufacturers and for electrical steel, for different regions and countries and surplus capacity identified, with its effect on prices. Manufacturers of both are listed with global shares of production capacity.
N-1, N-2, 2N, 2N+1 - STANDARDS OF REDUNDANCY
LONG TERM DEMAND CYCLE 1900-2050
The long term demand cycle depends on new build and replacement. Power transformers commonly have 40 year lives and with modern life extension can last even longer so the replacement cycle is a long term issue. To determine the demand cycle it is necessary to chart the growth of the transformer fleet over many decades. StatPlan has charted this since 1900 and the cycle is plotted to determine the demand cycle over 150 years, from 1900 to 2050. The long term demand cycle is not the same as the short term sales forecast.
THE POINT OF CONNECTION, CENTRAL AND DISTRIBUTED GENERATION
SMART TRANSFORMERS
The aging power grid, increasing energy demands, spiraling cost of generating electricity and its cost on the environment all point toward the need for a smart grid. Transformers serve as a hub for collection and distribution of energy and are key components of a smart grid.
MEPS AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Losses in transmission and distribution networks constitute the single biggest loss in any electricity system and 70% of these losses occur in the distribution network. Government regulations and programmes to reduce losses with energy efficient distribution transformers are outlined for different regions.
LOGISTICS
Power transformers can be the size of a house and weigh 400-500 tons. They often have to be transported large distances over difficult terrain with poor roads, underpasses and overpasses and limited load weight limits. Logistics problems and solutions are discussed together with their implications for transformers and similar large items of capital equipment.
