The Apac Hvdc Transmission Systems Market, estimated at USD 3,188.2 Mn in 2025, is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 9.4% and reach USD 5,979.5 Mn by 2032.
The industry is witnessing significant growth driven by increasing demand for intelligent, efficient, and cost-effective automation and machinery solutions across manufacturing and industrial sectors. Rapid advancements in robotics, AI-driven systems, and IoT-enabled equipment, along with evolving market requirements, are transforming the competitive landscape. Furthermore, sustainability initiatives, supportive regulatory policies, and continuous investments in research and development are expected to unlock new growth opportunities for market participants.
HVDC systems are the ones that use direct current which enables efficient flow of electricity in a single direction preventing losses in the transmission process. These systems are particularly used for transmission of electricity over long distances. Rise in demand for electricity among the households due to the growing population of countries in Asia Pacific region like India, China, Bangladesh, etc. and the expansion of the industrial sector in the region is increasing the demand for power generation and distribution systems.. Furthermore, the growing concerns over frequent blackouts in the region pertaining to the lack of necessary infrastructure in the field of electricity transmission is increasing the demand for HVDC transmission systems and the governments across the countries in APAC region are increasingly working towards the adoption of HVDC transmission systems leading to the growth of the market in the region.
The countries in the Asia Pacific region are focused on catalyzing their economic growth through the industrial expansion. This naturally increases the requirement of electricity in the region. These countries often look for alternatives that are efficient and cost effective so that the objective can be achieved with minimum cost. The HVDC Transmission systems are the perfect alternative in this case, as they are relatively cheaper than other alternatives like HVAC transmission systems. All these factors are expected to fuel the growth of the APAC HVDC Transmission Systems Market during the forecast period.
APAC HVDC Transmission Systems Market- Drivers
Growing need to minimize electricity blackouts occurring due to faults in transmission systems:
The countries like India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, etc. in the region of Asia Pacific are increasingly facing the issue of blackouts. These blackouts are primarily the reason of inefficient transmission systems in place. Installation of HVDC transmission systems in place of the existing systems can solve this daunting challenge which lies in front of these countries as frequent blackouts would lead to loss in production and other important activities in the economy. For instance, on June 6 2025, The Communist Party Committee Secretary held a meeting to address the blackouts that are occurring in the Northern Province of Vietnam. These blackouts are affecting the industries located in the area which includes Apple Inc.
APAC HVDC Transmission Systems Market- Restraints
Growing demand for distributed and remote power plants:
The Asia Pacific region is currently experiencing high demand to expand the electricity coverage in the region. The electricity supply has not yet penetrated the remote areas of the country. These regions might not feel the requirement of large scale transmissions systems like the HVDC systems. Instead of these huge transmission systems the installation of remote and distributed transmission systems that cater to small areas would be optimum. For instance, according to the research paper named, ‘Distributed Energy System in South-East Asia’ published in Eria.org, The potential sites for establishment of distributed power plants in several locations across countries in Asia are enlisted. This shows a huge potential of distributed power plants in the region which might affect the growth aspects of HVDC transmission systems in the APAC region
APAC HVDC Transmission Systems Market - Key Developments
- In May 2025, The State Government of Maharashtra gave the approval to Adani Transmission, a subsidiary of Indian business conglomerate, ‘Adani Group’ for rhe 1000 MW HVDC Kudus-Aarey Transmission line management project.

- In October 2025, Toshiba Energy Systems & Soltions Corporation (Toshiba ESS), a global market player in energy solutions announced that the American subsidiary of the company (Toshiba America Energy Systems Corporation) completed the acquisition of the EtaPRO business from GP Strategies Corporation, a global provider of workforce strategy solutions
APAC HVDC Transmission Systems Market- Impact of COVID-19
The COVID-19 pandemic had a severe effect on businesses across the globe. The HVDC Transmission systems market was adversely impacted due to the disruption caused by pandemic. The major application of HVDC transmission systems is in the power distribution sector. The governments across the world are the primary stakeholders when it comes to the power distribution. As the governments were focused on dealing with the disruption caused by the pandemic, all their efforts were diverted towards the strengthening of healthcare systems. The governments put all other projects and activities on halt during the pandemic period including the projects undertaken in the field of energy transmission systems. This led to a temporary stagnancy in the demand for HVDC transmission system market causing the market to shrink substantially during the pandemic period.
