The distribution transformer market saw ongoing consolidation, with larger companies acquiring smaller ones to expand their product portfolios and global presence. Additionally, advancements in materials, design, and manufacturing processes were improving transformer efficiency and reducing losses. The integration of renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power, into the grid requires efficient distribution transformers to convert and distribute the electricity generated. Oil-filled distribution transformers help to connect renewable energy sources to the grid and manage the variable power output. Many power distribution systems worldwide are aging and in need of upgrades.
As part of modernization efforts, utilities and governments invest in replacing older distribution transformers with more efficient and technologically advanced models to improve overall system reliability and reduce losses. The growth of industries and infrastructure projects in emerging economies is driving the demand for electrical equipment, including distribution transformers. Oil-filled distribution transformers are widely used in industrial applications to power machinery and equipment. The adoption of smart grid technologies requires advanced distribution transformers with monitoring and communication capabilities. Smart transformers enable utilities to monitor and control power flows in real-time, improving grid efficiency and reducing operational costs.
