Energy and Power

Static VAR Compensator Market, valued at USD 874.2 Million in 2023, and is projected to surpass USD 1,316.5 Million by 2032, indicating a robust CAGR of 4.7%

Static VAR Compensator Market Statistics

A static VAR compensator (SVC) is a power electronics-based device used in electrical power systems to regulate voltage and improve power factor. It consists of capacitors and reactors controlled by thyristors or insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs). SVCs are primarily used to counter voltage fluctuations and maintain system stability, in systems with variable loads or renewable energy sources. SVCs help to stabilize voltage levels, enhance power quality, and optimize the efficiency of the electrical grid. Moreover, due to the diverse applications of SVC key players vastly install this technology. For instance, in September 2021, Saudi Electricity Company (SEC) granted Alfanar Construction an EPC contract for the installation of SVC technology in the current Qassim power plant. However, high initial cost of static VAR compensator became a restraint for the static VAR compensator market. Furthermore, high voltage booster in railway sector prompted the static VAR compensator market. As a consequence, market participants are looking into new advancements in the static VAR compensator market.

Static VAR Compensator Market Dynamics

Grid Integration of Renewable Energy Sources Fuels the Static VAR Compensator Market Value

The grid integration of renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar, presents challenges due to their intermittent nature. Static VAR compensators (SVCs) play a crucial role in stabilizing the grid by adjusting reactive power to maintain voltage levels. As the demand for renewable energy integration grows, there is a need for SVCs, driving up their market value. For instance, according to National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), 160 GW of solar and wind capacity can serve 22% of India's power demand. This is because SVCs are efficient and reliable operation of power systems, gives smooth integration of renewable energy while maintaining grid stability. As a result, due to these factors grid integration of renewable energy sources drives the market growth in the forecast year.
