Transformer Oil Industry Overview

The global transformer oil market size was estimated at USD 2.73 billion in 2023 and is anticipated to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.3% from 2024 to 2030.

This is attributed to the steadily growing power sector globally, along with advancements in electric grids in emerging economies. Every power and distribution transformer contains dielectric insulating fluid with strong electricity resistance and the ability to keep a transformer cool. Bio-based products are more fire resistant than others, thus expected to witness the highest growth till 2030. Since bio-based oils are fully non-toxic, which further facilitates disposal, they provide reliable and cleaner products. The demand for bio-based products is also anticipated to grow as a result of an increase in the installation of transformers occurring globally. Power utilities are also focusing on upgrading the safety and performance of both new and existing transformers, which is predicted to boost demand for bio-based products globally.

Stringent regulation imposed by government bodies concerning energy wastage is expected to be the major challenge for product demand. For instance, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has set up strict regulations on oil demand to control electricity wastage. Additionally, developed and developing economies are opting for green and environmental-friendly technologies, which are expected to restrain the growth of mineral-based products.
