Solid state transformer (SST), alternately known as “smart transformer,” is an amalgamation of high-powered semiconductor components, control circuitry and conventional high frequency transformers. The smart transformers are used to provide additional flexibility to control power distribution networks, thereby facilitating the smooth conversion of AC to DC and DC to AC, as per requirement.
Solid state transformers cater to a wide variety of applications, ranging from alternative power generation to traction locomotives, power grid and electric industries, and others. Solid state transformers are used in a wide range of applications, which would facilitate the smooth transition from AC to DC and DC to AC, besides voltage conversion. Alternative power generation is the most dominant application of solid state transformers driving the market growth. Increasing adoption of renewable power sources, such as wind & solar energy, traction locomotives, are major factors boosting the adoption of solid state transformers globally.
The world solid state transformers market is driven by, increasing preference for renewable energy source, growing use of traction locomotives & electric vehicles and heavy investments in smart grids & energy systems. In addition, new renewable energy sources such as tidal energy for power generations have boosted research and development activities in the field of electric distribution network, further driving the market growth. However, high cost associated with solid state transformers and inadequate SST testing infrastructure, are expected to affect the market growth.
The report is analysed on the basis of potential as well as actual market for solid state transformers. Both the markets have been taken into consideration on the basis of increasing demand of renewable energy sources and SST in traction locomotives sector.
