2026-04-22
Summary
I. Current Status of Global Transformer Supply-Demand Imbalance
| Index | Status quo | Influence |
| North American Transformer Lead Times | 100 weeks or more | Grid Project Construction Delayed |
| Import Dependency | 80% | The supply chain is fragile and relies on external supplies |
| Global Transformer Demand | An average annual growth rate of 7% from 2025 to 2030. | Capacity expansion is failing to keep pace with the growth in demand |
| Switchgear Requirements | Synchronized Growth, Supply Chains Under Pressure | Supply of key components is tight |
The primary factors contributing to this situation include accelerated investment in power grids, tight raw material supplies, lengthy capacity expansion cycles, a shortage of skilled labor, and adjustments to global supply chains.
