Edition 3 of this successful global analysis of transformer markets was published in Sept 2014. It has been substantially expanded since Ed1, refined since Ed2 as more data has become available, and supported by an optional database with annual forecasts to 2020, this is a comprehensive analysis of global markets, their size, growth prospects, breakdown by transformer type and issues facing the industry.

Central to the forecasting is the nature of future markets and the importance of the replacement sector for market growth. This market segment will soon account for more than half of the entire market. But to understand when plant is to be replaced, it is essential to understand when plant was installed, the useful life of the equipment and how replacement is managed. The databases that underlie this report cover this ground and allow the report to include a level of detail that is believed to be unmatched elsewhere.

The report comprises 159 pages, 93 tables and 34 figures and illustrations.
