Digital Substation Industry – Enabling a Stronger, Smarter and Greener Grid

Industrial development has increased digitalization in many sectors. Innovation in the digitization market is not only related to the invention of new products, but also upgrades of the available products and technologies. One such innovation is digital substations. Substations are the part of electrical generation, distribution, and transmission systems. They transform current from high voltage to low voltage and low voltage to high with the help of transformers. Digital substations comprises the introduction of intelligence into the substation systems. The transformation of the power generation from a wired to an optical network is the reason for the evolution of digital substations. Also, it is a stable supply system for power generation. Digital substations are governed by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC)  code IEC 61850. Process level, bay level, and station level are the three major functional levels of digital substations. Signals are transmitted from the process work station.

The system protection and control processes are performed in the bay level work station. At the station level, the engineering and report activities are performed. An optical coherence tomography (OCT) is used to build the digital substations, which requires a lot less space than the analogue substations. Digital substations provide enhanced measurement accuracy and recording of the generated information. With the installation of digital substations, a substantial amount of material cost reduction can occur as fewer cables and less space are required. The maintenance of digital substations is easier than that of traditional substations due to the integrated standardized interface. The integration of advanced technology and innovative practices such as the use of Ethernet in digital substations has increased the security system of digital substations.
Intelligent electronic devices (IED), generic object-oriented substation event (GOOSE), station and process bus, global positioning system (GPS), time clock, merging units, electronic fiber optic coherence tomography (CT), and voltage transformers (VT) are the key components of digital substations. Growing emphasis on the replacement and redevelopment of aging infrastructure is one of the primary drivers of the digital substation market. Grid transition in communication and energy is also driving the market. The increasing demand for reliable power supply system is another reason for the growth of the digital substation market. The installation of digital substation requires high initial investment, which might restrain its expansion. Many companies have adapted the phase-wise installation of digital substations to tackle the budget constraints of installation. Also, in the long run digital substations could reduce cost and increase efficiency. Rapid industrialization in many emerging countries is one of the investment opportunities seen in the digital substation market.
The digital substation market can be divided into two types: transmission substations and distribution substations. Voltage segments of the digital substation market are 66kV, 66kV to 220kV, 220Kv to 550kV, and 550kV and above. Digital substations use different types of modules, such as hardware (transformers, condition monitoring system, protection device, bus bars and others), fiber optics communication, and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA). Utilities, metals, and mining are the major end-use industries of the digital substation market.
Leading players present in the digital substation market are ABB Ltd., Honeywell International Inc., Emerson Electric, Siemens AG, Larsen & Toubro Limited, NR Electric Co., Eaton Corp., Schneider Electric SE, Cisco systems, Inc., and General Electric Company.

Class D Audio Amplifier Market – Influential Factors Determining the Trajectory of the Market

Class D amplifier, also known as switching amplifier is referred to an electronic amplifier in which amplifying devices such as transistors function as electronic switches, unlike other amplifiers in which these devices operate as linear gain units. The signal that is to be amplified is a chain of incessant amplitude pulses, so that the devices which are active can switch back and forth rapidly between a completely non-conductive and conductive state. The analog signal in the process to be amplified is transformed to a series of pulses with the help of pulse density and width modulation or other different methods. The class-D amplifier works by generating a series of square pulses of a fixed amplitude but with varying separation and width, the portion in low-frequency is the actual frequency spectrum whose signal is to be amplified.

Automotive Turbochargers Market – Intense Demand for Lighter Vehicles Pushes Sales of Turbochargers

A predominantly consolidated global automotive turbochargers market was present in 2015, where the five leading players took up over 66% of the market’s value. BorgWarner Inc., Honeywell International Inc., Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd., IHI Corporation, and Cummins, Inc. have been well-known names within the global automotive turbochargers market and are likely to remain as that for the coming years.
However, according to a research report released by Transparency Market Research, the global automotive turbochargers market will witness the stiffening of several challenges and maturation of top regions which will lead to the moderation of shares held by the top players, allowing a greater scope of entry for newer names. Players such as Continental AG, Bosch Mahle Turbo Systems, Eaton Corporation PLC, and Turbo Energy Pvt. Ltd. are likely to show a steady gain in value over the coming years. The global automotive turbochargers market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 10.1% within a forecast period from 2016 to 2024, in terms of revenue. This revenue is expected to reach US$20.35 bn by the end of 2024, after ending at US$8.56 bn in 2015.
“Making vehicles lighter has always been a highly popular trend in the global automotive turbochargers market. Lighter cars, for instance, hold the advantages of reduced volume of metal, lesser maintenance, better fuel efficiency, and faster speeds. The automotive industry has lately been chasing fuel efficiency targets owing to the growing number of emission restrictions being imposed across the world. Europe, the leading region in the global automotive turbochargers market for 2015, has been especially strict when it comes to controlling fuel consumption and vehicular emissions. This is a definite driver for the global automotive turbochargers market, which has so far been a very efficient method to reduce weight of a vehicle as well as emissions,” states a TMR analyst.
Other factors driving the global automotive turbochargers market at the moment include the growing penetration of turbochargers in gasoline vehicles. Although they are primarily intended to be used in diesel engines, manufacturers have already begun developing turbochargers aimed at gasoline vehicles. The growing use of turbochargers in gasoline vehicles could possibly elevate their demand by a staggering amount from the Asia Pacific region, which holds a greater volume of gasoline vehicles.

Demand for Electric Vehicles Escalates, Hampers Turbocharger Sales
Electric vehicles are growing stronger in terms of speed, efficiency, and overall utility. They have already begun being comparable to high end gasoline and diesel vehicles and are steadily gaining popularity across the world for being zero-emission vehicles. These factors are directly driving the sales of electric vehicles, and are hindering the sales of conventional ones. As a result, the demand for turbochargers is also taking a hit. As a greater percentage of vehicle users resort to the constantly evolving electric vehicles to stick to the ever-strengthening emission norms, manufacturers of turbochargers are expected to receive a cutback in overall production numbers.
Other factors hindering the global automotive turbochargers market include the increasing cost of non-renewable fuel which is pressurizing several consumers to change to electric vehicles, bicycles, and public transport. At the same time, manufacturers of turbochargers have consistently faced a negative impact from turbo lag. The greater time taken to build up exhaust pressure required to turn the turbine is becoming more of an issue in comparison to other, more evolved emission-reducing technologies.
