Shunt Reactor Industry Overview
The shunt reactor market is highly consolidated due to the dominance of few established shunt reactor manufacturers like ABB Ltd, Siemens AG, CG Power, and Industrial Solutions Limited, Mitsubishi Electric Corporation. The companies in this market provide similar equipment, and hence the competition among the players is intense. Innovation and better voltage protection solutions are expected to determine the dominance of major players in high-growth regions like Asia-Pacific over the forecast period. Significant partnerships and collaborations have been taking place in this industry to establish market leadership.
- June 2020 - Siemens announced that Danish customer Semco Maritime has tapped it to provide the main electrical equipment for the electrical service platform (ESP) for the offshore wind project, Mayflower Wind LLC.
