The depleting conventional power generation has drawn attention towards exploring the new prospects of power generation sources. Across the globe power consumption, demand tends to increase in near future. The major economies such as China and India, are continuously striving to develop scope to generate power from new sources such as wind farms, solar panel and tidal to satiate the power consumption demand of the cities.

The increasing demand of electricity has laid enormous pressures on the existing infrastructure of the power generation capacity. Beside power generation, transmission loss is also one of the major concerns as heavy transmission losses are being incurred by the AC system. Hence, HVDC transmission becomes an interesting preposition across the globe due to its lower transmission losses, asynchronous interconnection and the capability to deliver bulk power for long distance transmission.

High voltage direct current grid is a main step towards power generation from the renewable sources. The growing need for integrated network, transmit bulk power generated from the remotely located renewable sources and interconnection with the neighboring grids are the key driver of the HVDC transmission market. The Global transmission grid market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 16.97% in the next five years (2013-2018).

HVDC transmission market companies discussed in this report include ABB, Adani Power Limited, Aecom Technology, Aeg Power Solutions, Alstom SA, Crompton Greaves, Dnv Kema, Energinet, Epcos Ag, General Electric, Hitachi, Kalpataru Power Transmission, National Grid, Nexans S.A., Nextek Power Systems, Prysmian Group, Schneider Electric SA, Siemens Energy, Toshiba Corp. and Transgrid Solutions.

The increasing wind farms, focusing on power trading and reliable power transmission in the continent have been driving HVDC transmission market. It is expected that wind farms would produce 10,000 MW of power - 50 times more than today's offshore farms. Even the European Union, also focusing on the adoption rate of the HVDC as they have set a target of 20% of electricity from renewable sources by 2020, and much of this will come from wind farms.

Europe and APAC are considered to be the fastest growing markets due to high development in power transmission networks. American market also constitutes as a substantial share in high voltage direct current market where as the U.S. is considered as the major contributor. The ageing infrastructure and recent blackout in the U.S. is the reason behind the adoption of HVDC in the region. From these factors, it is believed that these markets will grow at a significant rate for the forecast period of 2013 and 2018.

Need for reliable transmission and increasing growth of interconnection among neighboring network are also boosting the adoption of HVDC transmission. The connecting wind farms are also been a key factor that impacts the adoption of HVDC as often as the offshore plant located distantly and generates a constant high voltage. The high power transmission from offshore plant to the load centers needs an efficient, reliable system. HVDC has the ability to carry high voltage power over long distances with low transmission loss. It is believed that wind application will be the factor that will impact the HVDC market most.

In-depth competitive landscape for each player and market share has been given in the report along with geographic analysis for HDVC grid market, covering the major regional markets, viz. Americas, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Rest of the World (ROW). Some of the major contracts, agreements, major acquisitions, collaborations, and partnerships that boost the HVDC grid are discussed in the report.
