The global automatic power factor controller market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.6% and is expected to be valued at USD 4.78 Billion by 2022. APFCs help in lower the power consumption due to the presence of non-linear loads such as transformers, motors, and other machines in industries. Also, the growing demand for APFCs in the utility and manufacturing industries to improve the reactive power and reduce harmonics in the systems drive the growth of the overall APFC market.
The APFC is segmented on the basis of type that includes active and passive APFCs. The active APFCs, which allow the designers to achieve PF as high as 0.99, held the largest market share in 2015. The active APFC can be of two types: single stage or multi stage. The single-stage power factor controller use single switch and controller to rectify the input current and maintains the output voltage, while multi stage power factor controller has two or more power stages to reduce the input current harmonics.
The APFC market, segmented on the basis of components, includes relays, capacitors, displays, switches, microcontrollers, and resistors. Displays are used to show the power factor, voltage, current, harmonics, active and reactive power, and apparent power value. In the automatic power factor control panel, various types of displays are used such as LED displays and LCD displays.
Initially APFC panels were used in manufacturing and utility industry; however, APFC ICs are developed that are now being used in commercial, enterprise, and military industry due to the availability of high efficiency and reliable power management of APFCs. The utility industry market occupied the largest market in 2015 due to implementation APFCs for reduction in the power loss and improves the quality of distribution systems of utility industry.
The APAC market is estimated to grow at the highest CAGR between 2016 and 2022. The growing development of infrastructures such as commercial buildings, power plants, and others for developing economies of the APAC region would be the driving factor for the market in the APAC region.
High initial investments and installation costs for industries is a major restraint for the APAC market. The cost of designing and developing APFC panels is high due to the presence of high-capacity capacitors and inductors for low-frequency filtration. The equipment for industrial and commercial verticals are expensive and incur one-time cost.
ABB Ltd. (Switzerland) is the leader in the APFC market and has played a significant role in the development of these devices for power management. The company offers a wide range of power factor controller equipment. The vector series is one of the comprehensive solutions for power factor correction that comprise high technology solutions which deliver optimized power quality for low-voltage networks. These products are used in mining, heavy industry, chemical, pulp and paper, shipping, cement, plastics, petro-chemical, printing, and food industries. Recently in April 2016, the company launched the modular capacitor for panel builders, which is designed for direct installation in low-voltage panels, switchboards, and power factor correction equipment. These product launches enhance the product efficiency and also protect electronic equipment from damage.
