<strong>Substation</strong> <strong>Automation</strong> <strong>Market</strong> Reach US$139.34<br />

billion by 2020<br />

<strong>Substation</strong> automation is an integral part of electrical system for generation, transmission and<br />

distribution of electricity. The combination of devices used to change the characteristics of<br />

electric supply such as voltage, p.f. and frequency among others is called substation. <strong>Substation</strong>s<br />

are used to receive electricity at high voltage from the transmission and decrease the voltage to<br />

the appropriate level so that it can be used for local distribution. On the basis of the components<br />

substation automation market can be segmented into recloser controller, programmable logic<br />

controller, capacitor bank controller, digital transducer/smart meter, load tap controller,<br />

communication channel and digital relays among others.<br />

Increasing number of smart grid improving grid efficiency and reliability and increasing need for<br />

reduction in transmission and distribution loss are the major forces driving the growth of<br />

substation automation market. Apart from this, demand for distributed intelligence is also<br />

fuelling the growth of substation automation market. The increasing demand for electricity with<br />

rapid industrialization in the emerging economies of Asia Pacific is also boosting the growth of<br />

substation automation market.<br />

North America accounted for the largest market share in 2013, which is expected to lure heavy<br />

investment and at the same time high end research is expected to be carried out in the field of<br />

substation automation. In addition, increasing demand for reduction in outrage time improving<br />

the transmission efficiency is also fuelling the growth of substation automation market. The Asia<br />

Pacific substation automation market was valued at USD 19.55 billion in 2013, and is expected<br />

to be the fastest growing substation automation market in the forecast period. Increasing demand<br />

for electricity and reduction in transmission and distribution loss is the major factor driving the<br />

growth in this segment. Apart from this, the ageing infrastructure of existing power utilities and<br />

the need to upgrade them to meet rising demand of electricity is also boosting the growth in this<br />

region.<br />

Communication channel represented the largest substation automation segment by components<br />

in 2013. Apart from this, communication channel segment is also expected to exhibit fastest<br />

growth during the forecast period from 2014 to 2020. The rising demand for improvement in<br />

communication capabilities to communicate with remote locations in order to improve overall<br />

efficiency of power utilities is the major factor boosting the growth in this segment.<br />

Apart from this, communication channel also helps in early fault detection reducing the outrage<br />

time fuelling the demand in this segment. In terms of module, intelligent electronic device (IED)


holds the largest module segment in 2013. However, communication network module is expected<br />

to have maximum growth rate in the forecast period. The increasing demand for transmission and<br />

distribution efficiency by reduction of outrage time is the major factor driving the growth in this<br />

segment. Apart from this, ageing infrastructure of existing utilities switching to automated<br />

substations is also boosting the growth in this segment.<br />
