Dublin, Jan. 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) Transmission System Market Report 2026" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) transmission system market is poised for significant growth, expanding from $12.74 billion in 2025 to $13.99 billion in 2026, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.8%. This expansion is propelled by the development of offshore wind farms, long-distance bulk power transmission, cross-border energy trade, and rising urban energy demand. The early adoption of line-commutated converter (LCC) HVDC systems further contributes to this growth.

Looking ahead, the market is projected to reach $20.76 billion by 2030, with a higher CAGR of 10.4%. This forecasted surge is driven by increased deployment of voltage-source converter (VSC) HVDC systems, investments in renewable energy grids, and growth in multi-terminal HVDC projects. Key trends include the expansion of HVDC infrastructure for renewable integration, smart monitoring systems, and advances in converter technologies.

Power demand escalation worldwide fuels the HVDC transmission system market's expansion. The International Energy Agency forecasts global electricity demand to rise annually by 3.4% until 2026. Highlighting the significance of HVDC systems, electricity usage in data centers is expected to more than double, intensifying the demand for efficient and stable power transmission solutions. Consequently, this surge contributes to the market's growing trajectory.

Corporate strategies emphasize research investment to strengthen market positions. For instance, the U.S. Department of Energy announced funding in August 2023 for research into HVDC voltage-source converter systems. The goal is a 35% cost reduction by 2035, promoting widespread adoption. Similarly, Mitsubishi Electric Corporation's acquisition of Scibreak AB in February 2023 exemplifies strategic moves to leverage direct current circuit breaker technology for market leadership.

Key industry players include Siemens AG, General Electric Company, Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, Schneider Electric SE, and ABB Ltd, among others. The Asia-Pacific region is expected to exhibit the fastest growth, with Europe currently leading the market.

The market is not without challenges. Global trade relations and tariffs impact the HVDC sector, particularly in regions reliant on imported components such as converter valves and insulated cables. Despite these challenges, tariffs drive domestic manufacturing and innovation in cost-optimized HVDC technologies.
