The hvdc capacitor market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $6.18 billion in 2025 to $7.07 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.3%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth in long-distance power transmission networks, adoption of hvdc systems in utility-scale projects, reliance on conventional capacitors, deployment in industrial power conditioning, expansion of renewable power interconnections.
The hvdc capacitor market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $11.88 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing investment in smart grid modernization, rising adoption of energy-efficient capacitor technologies, expansion of hvdc links supporting renewable integration, growth in industrial high-power electronics, development of advanced power conditioning components. Major trends in the forecast period include expansion of high-efficiency hvdc transmission projects, development of intelligent grid-integrated capacitor systems, advancement of smart monitoring for capacitor banks, adoption of electrified infrastructure components, integration of automation in power conditioning systems.
The increasing demand for electricity is expected to drive the growth of the HVDC capacitors market going forward. Electricity is a fundamental form of energy that exists in both positive and negative forms and can be produced naturally or artificially. HV grids use power capacitors with high-current capability that can withstand major voltage fluctuations and surges to help maintain stable voltage in HVDC systems during long-distance electricity transmission. For example, in September 2024, according to the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS), a UK-based government organization, electricity consumption in the road sector (for electric vehicles) increased by 55% from 2022 to 2023, and energy consumption in the transport sector also rose during this period. Therefore, the increasing demand for electricity is driving the growth of the HVDC capacitors market.
Major companies in the HVDC capacitor market are prioritizing product innovation, such as power quality systems, to maintain a competitive edge. Power quality systems are integrated solutions that employ capacitors, converters, and control algorithms to stabilize voltage, reduce harmonics, and boost transmission efficiency in high-voltage direct current networks. For example, in April 2023, Hitachi Energy Ltd., a Switzerland-based high-voltage power transmission technology provider, announced a dry-type capacitor production expansion project at its Xi’an facility, incorporating intelligent conveyor systems, AI-driven visual inspection, and robotic automation to produce higher-performance capacitors for HVDC transmission. This advancement improves grid integration of renewable energy and long-distance power transfer, although the elevated cost of advanced materials and longer qualification timelines may slow adoption in price-sensitive markets.
In February 2023, Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, a renowned Japan-based electronics and electrical equipment company, successfully acquired Scibreak AB for an undisclosed sum. This strategic move is geared towards enhancing the competitiveness of Mitsubishi's unified business. The focus is on collaborating closely to develop DCCB (Direct Current Circuit Breaker) technologies for high-voltage direct current (HVDC) systems. The aim is to support the growing global deployment of renewable energy. Scibreak AB, the acquired company, is based in Sweden and is recognized for its expertise in manufacturing high-voltage, fast-acting circuit breakers.
