In power transmission networks, an oil-immersed shunt reactor is an electrical component that absorbs excess reactive power and maintains voltage stability, especially when there is little load. Its insulating oil fills it, cooling and insulating the internal components to improve performance and longevity. Shunt reactors are made especially to use reactive power, as opposed to transmitting energy like transformers do. By doing this, high-voltage networks may operate more efficiently and overvoltages can be controlled. They are widely used in long-distance transmission lines and substations, particularly when the grid is exposed to voltage fluctuations from renewable energy sources like wind and solar.

According to SPER market research, ‘Global Oil Immersed Shunt Reactor Market Size- By Phase, By Product - Regional Outlook, Competitive Strategies and Segment Forecast to 2034’ state that the Global Oil Immersed Shunt Reactor Market is predicted to reach 22.89 billion by 2034 with a CAGR of 8.2%.

Drivers:

Due to rising energy consumption and increased grid modernization investments, the market for oil-immersed shunt reactors is expanding globally. The increasing integration of renewable energy sources such as wind and solar causes voltage instability and fluctuating reactive power levels in power systems. Shunt reactors help regulate voltage and improve grid resilience by absorbing excess reactive power. Thanks to advancements in technology, such as improved insulation, smaller designs, and better cooling, these reactors are now more reliable and effective. Government initiatives to support renewable energy transitions and build out electrical infrastructure are also driving installations.

Restraints:

Considering its promising growth, the market for oil-immersed shunt reactors is constrained by several constraints. High upfront costs for production, installation, and maintenance may deter adoption, especially in developing countries. These reactors also require space and careful planning to incorporate into existing grid systems, which may pose logistical and operational challenges. Concerns about oil spills and environmental contamination raise maintenance costs and the costs of complying with regulations. The global shortage of skilled technical personnel capable of operating and maintaining high-voltage equipment further slows deployment.

With more money being spent on updating grid systems and developing renewable energy sources, the North America market for oil-immersed shunt reactors is expected to rise significantly over the next several years. Shunt reactors are in high demand because of the increasing integration of solar and wind energy, which helps to improve grid stability and decrease idle time in power supplies. Some of the key market players are Hitachi Energy, Hyosung Heavy Industries, Nissin Electric, SGB SMIT, Shrihans Electricals and others.
