Transmission over standard high-voltage alternating current (HVAC) methods that are well-established for long-distance, point-to-point power transfers are done using a high-voltage direct current (HVDC) capacitor.
New York, Sept. 28, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reportlinker.com announces the release of the report "Global HVDC Capacitor Market Size, Share & Industry Trends Analysis Report By Technology, By Product Type, By Application, By Installation Type, By Regional Outlook and Forecast, 2022 – 2028" - https://www.reportlinker.com/p06322065/?utm_source=GNW Although being a reasonably mature technology, HVDC transmission has seen significant technological advancements that have increased its capabilities and areas of application. In contrast to the more prevalent alternating current (AC) systems, high-voltage, direct current (HVDC) electric power transmission systems employ direct current (DC) to transmit electrical power. These systems are also referred to as power superhighways or electrical superhighways. Voltages used in HVDC lines typically range from 100 kV to 800 kV. However, a 1,100-kV link in China with a distance of 3,300 km (2,100 mi) and a power capacity of 12 GW was finished in 2019. Intercontinental connections are made possible with this dimension, which may help manage the variations of wind and solar energy. HVDC enables power transfer between incompatible AC transmission networks. A network can be stabilized against disruptions brought on by abrupt changes in power because the power flow over an HVDC link can be adjusted independently of the phase angle between source and load. Power can also be transferred using HVDC between grid systems that operate at various frequencies, such as 50 Hz and 60 Hz. Enabling the transfer of power between disparate networks increases the stability and efficiency of each grid. Electric power transmission uses high voltage to cut down on energy lost through wire resistance. Doubling the voltage would result in the same amount of power being transmitted with only half as much current. COVID-19 Impact Analysis The COVID-19 pandemic has had a substantial negative impact on the market for high voltage direct current (HVDC) capacitors worldwide. Due to the downturn and lack of labor, production facilities for electronics and semiconductors have been put on hold. Travel restrictions and facility closures caused by the COVID-19 outbreak kept workers away from their workplaces, which resulted in a major and prolonged decline in factory utilization. This slowed the market growth for high voltage direct current (HVDC) capacitors in 2020. Market Growth Factors The Need For HVDC Capacitors Rises As A Result Of HVDC Transmission Systems An HVDC capacitor is necessary for converting AC to DC, moving power between converter stations, and transforming DC to AC once more so that it may be fed into the power grid. It is an essential component of the HVDC transmission system. They aid in preserving voltage stability, enhancing the caliber of the power, and promptly controlling power flow. By quickly controlling the power flow in the transmission lines, they also lessen the chance of short-circuiting current. The Acceptance Of Electric Vehicles Is Expanding An HVDC capacitor is primarily used in EVs to increase DC bus voltage stability and prevent ripple currents from returning to the power source. When EVs use batteries to supply energy, they are also employed to protect semiconductor components and for decoupling purposes. DC link capacitors help EV applications’ inverters, battery systems, and motor controllers balance the effects of inductance. Additionally, they serve as filters to protect EV subsystems from voltage surges, peaks, and electromagnetic interference (EMI). Market Restraining Factors Capacitors Used In High Voltage Dc Transmission Pose Several Risks Even after the machinery has been de-energized, HV capacitors may continue to store dangerous energy and develop an unsafe residual charge on their own. Some capacitors’ liquid dielectric or its combustion byproducts may be harmful. When dielectric or metal connectivity failures take place in HV capacitors, an arc fault is produced. Within oil-filled units, the dielectric fluid vaporizes, causing case bulges and breakage. In addition, even when in regular operation, HV vacuum capacitors can emit mild X-rays. These elements pose risks to both people and the environment. Product Type Outlook On the basis of Product Type, the HVDC Capacitor Market is divided into Plastic Film Capacitor, Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitors, Ceramic Capacitors, Tantalum Wet Capacitors, and Others. The plastic film capacitor segment acquired the highest revenue share in the HVDC Capacitor Market in 2021. It is because plastic film capacitors have the potential to self-heal, which helps them guard against catastrophic failures and elevates their level of reliability vs competing technologies. Technology Outlook Based on the Technology, the HVDC Capacitor Market is segmented into Line-commutated Converter (LCC) and Voltage-source Converter (VSC). The voltage-source converter (VSC) segment recorded a substantial revenue share in the HVDC Capacitor Market in 2021. It is because more recent technology built on power transistors is VSC. Reducing the low voltage needs lowers the possibility of commutation failure. Installation Type Outlook By Installation Type, the HVDC Capacitor Market is classified into Open Rack Capacitor Banks, Enclosed Rack Capacitor Banks, and Pole-mounted Capacitor Banks. The enclosed rack capacitor banks segment garnered the highest revenue share in the HVDC Capacitor Market in 2021. Due to decreased installation and maintenance costs, it has been widely used in a variety of indoor and outdoor applications, including power generation plants, electrical substations, cement factories, chemical factories, and iron and steel manufacturing plants. Application Outlook Based on the Application, the HVDC Capacitor Market is bifurcated into Commercial, Industrial, Energy and Power, Aerospace and Defense, and Others. The industrial segment witnessed a substantial revenue share in the HVDC Capacitor Market in 2021. Due to the large concentration of industrial loads, the assembly line as a whole may be badly affected by voltage variations and disturbances, which could significantly lower productivity. Regional Outlook Region-wise, the HVDC Capacitor Market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and LAMEA. The Asia Pacific region procured a promising revenue share in the HVDC Capacitor Market in 2021. In the regional HVDC capacitor market, China, India, and Japan are mostly the market leaders.
