Dublin, April 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Transformer Report Edition 12, 2024 - Vol 1 & 2" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The composition of the transformer market is changing. By 2030 total transformer sales will increase 38% on 2023, wind and solar generator transformers sales 65% and EV fast charger transformer sales 498%.
For the last three years the global transformer market has experienced almost unprecedented high demand and rising prices. The causes: the energy transition, the take-up of EVs, escalation in costs and shortages of materials, issues in the supply chains and a shortfall of production capacity.
