Abstract

Global HVDC converter transformer market
is projected to reach $5.3 billion by
2025 at a CAGR of approximately 18 %.
The market is mainly driven by new installations
of HVDC systems for new off-shore
wind systems and long-distance power
transfer to load centers, however, refurbishment also play a significant role.
Some of the leading players in the global
HVDC converter transformer market today
are ABB, Siemens, GE-Alstom, BHEL,
TBEA, XD transformers, NR Electric, RXPE
and C-EPRI. ABB and Siemens still have
the largest market share of HVDC systems
globally and are well positioned to
win projects in Europe, North and South
America.
