The Asia Pacific region holds the distinction of being the world's largest energy producer and consumer, with China taking a prominent role in both production and consumption. In line with its commitment to the Paris Agreement, the region has experienced a substantial twofold increase in the adoption of renewable energy sources. National targets for renewable energy, coupled with a shift towards expanding traditional electrical networks, have created a favorable business environment. Utility companies have primarily directed their efforts towards enhancing and expanding the grid infrastructure to accommodate the growing share of renewable energy sources and advanced distributed generation technologies.
According to the Renewable Energy Institute, the total renewable energy generation in the country exceeded 6,000 TWh in 2018, making China the top choice for global investors in the renewable energy sector. China attracted a significant amount of investment, totaling USD 90 billion, in its renewable energy industry.
Furthermore, favorable government incentives and regulatory reforms designed to promote the adoption of renewable energy throughout the region are expected to have a substantial positive impact on the growth of the transformer market. The implementation of stringent policies aimed at establishing a sustainable energy mix in various industries, supported by utility-led large-scale expansion of renewable energy, will further enhance the prospects of the industry.
