The global power transformer market size is expected to reach a valuation of USD 38.91 billion by 2030 and is expected to expand at 7.1% CAGR from 2023 to 2030, according to a new study by Grand View Research Inc. Technical developments and growing electricity consumption is expected to accelerate power transformer industry growth. It is anticipated that significant infrastructure investments in power plants combined with rising demand for smart meters will have a favorable effect on demand. Furthermore, a number of government initiatives to upgrade the current grids along with the installation of cutting-edge technology will fuel the expansion of the power transformer industry.

The growing interest in low carbon emissions is expected to create significant growth prospects for transformers, which are incompatible with today's technical and environmental criteria, and are expected to be replaced by advanced characteristics offered by environmentally friendly equipment. The power transformer industry growth is expected to be hampered, nevertheless, by pricing pressure on manufacturers, coupled with shifting raw material prices.
