The instrument transformers  market is expected to grow from an 
estimated USD 7.32 Billion in 2017 to USD 9.06  Billion by 2022, 
registering a CAGR of 4.35% during the forecast period. This growth is 
primarily due to the increasing  emphasis on alternative energy 
production, refurbishment of aging  infrastructure, and huge investments
 in smart grids and energy systems across  the world.
The power utilities segment is expected to 
hold the largest share of the instrument transformers market, by 
end-user, during the forecast period
The power utilities segment led the instrument 
transformers market in 2016, and is projected to dominate the market 
during the forecast period. The total investment in the transmission and
 distribution infrastructure over 2014 to 2035 is expected to be USD 6.8
 trillion, according to the International Energy Agency. Approximately, 
56% of the total energy investment accounts for transmission and 
distribution. Refurbishment and replacement of existing assets 
contribute 40% and the grid integration of renewables accounts for 4%. 
Instrument transformers are a major part of the transmission and 
distribution infrastructure, used for measurement as well as protection 
of the system. Approximately 10% of the total substation cost is 
dedicated to procurement and installation of instrument transformers. 
With the increasing investments in the power infrastructure, the market 
for instrument transformers tends to grow.

Capacitive potential transformers to be the fastest growing segment in the instrument transformers market
With regard to the type segment, capacitive potential
 transformers are expected to constitute the fastest growing market from
 2017 to 2022. Capacitive potential transformers are used to measure 
voltages above 66 kV. In these types of transformers, capacitors are 
used as voltage dividers. These capacitors are connected in series where
 the voltage drop takes place. Unlike inductive voltage transformers, 
capacitive voltage transformers usually have a ferro resonance damping 
circuit built into the instrument transformers itself. Apart from 
voltage measurement, these capacitive voltage transformers are also used
 as high pass filters. These days transmission lines are used for 
communication purposes as well. The information at high frequencies (in 
MHz) are conveyed through transmission lines from one grid to another 
and is known as Power Line Carrier Communication (PLCC). Capacitive 
voltage transformers, when used as high pass filters, helps in PLCC.
Asia Pacific: The leading market for instrument transformers
In this report, the instrument transformers market 
has been analyzed with respect to six regions, namely, North America, 
Europe, Asia Pacific, South America, the Middle East, and Africa. Asia 
Pacific is expected to account for the largest market share of 36% in 
the global instrument transformers market in 2017. Countries such as 
China, Japan, and India are investing in grid expansion projects to 
increase their distribution grid reliability. China accounted for the 
largest share of the instrument transformers market in Asia Pacific in 
2016. It has the highest installed power generation and distribution 
capacities, resulting in an increased demand for transformers. The 
country, which is an export-oriented economy, has witnessed an 
exponential growth in the demand for electricity in the past couple of 
decades, fueled by industrialization and infrastructural developments. 
Meanwhile, the next strongest economy, India, is also adding up its 
renewable energy capacity annually. For instance, the country is the 
third-largest electricity producer in the world and is likely to 
generate approximately 30 GW of power from renewable energy sources in 
2017. This would require grid connected as well as local distribution 
networks. These factors are expected to drive the growth of the 
instrument transformers market in Asia Pacific.
