The Europe HVDC Transmission Market would witness market growth of 5.3% CAGR during the forecast period (2023-2030).
HVDC interconnections between neighbouring countries or regions facilitate cross-border electricity trading. This allows for efficient utilization of energy resources and can lead to economic benefits for both parties. HVDC transmits electricity across geographical barriers such as mountains, deserts, and bodies of water. The applications of HVDC transmission continue to evolve as the energy landscape changes, with a growing emphasis on renewable energy integration, grid modernization, and cross-border energy cooperation. HVDC technology enables efficient and reliable electricity transmission in various scenarios.
In some cases, governments provide incentives and funding for HVDC projects. While HVDC technology offer many benefits, it faces challenges, such as high initial costs, technical complexities, and regulatory issues. Converting existing AC infrastructure to HVDC can be expensive and logistically challenging.
Europe’s geography includes various bodies of water, making undersea and subsea HVDC cable connections essential for connecting offshore wind farms and interconnecting islands with the mainland grid. Projects like the North Sea Link between the UK and Norway and the NordBalt interconnector between Lithuania and Sweden demonstrate the use of HVDC for these applications. Many European countries are working on developing energy islands, which are self-sufficient regions with significant renewable energy capacity. HVDC transmission can connect these islands to the mainland grid and enable energy exchange. These factors will drive the market’s growth in this region in the coming years.
