The traction transformer is an integral part of the electric traction system.

On the basis of types, the traction transformer is divided into three major segments, namely tap changing, tapped, and rectifier. Tapped transformers contribute the maximum revenue (93.4% in 2014) to the South American traction transformer market as they are used in locomotives due to their higher power rating. Other two types of transformers are used in models such as EMUs and trams.

The traction transformer is segmented by application (Locomotives, EMUs, and Trams), product (solid state transformer and other products) and voltage network (AC and DC).

Electric traction using traction transformers has many critical advantages over the conventional diesel-based traction systems as they offer environmental benefits, low maintenance costs, and power efficiency. The advanced traction transformers can further reduce CO2 emissions by using bio-degradable coolants instead of mineral-based coolants and minimize the energy consumption during operations.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the South American market for traction transformers. This report includes revenue forecasts, market trends and opportunities for the period from 2014 to 2019 and the overview of the competitive landscape for the period from 2011 to 2014. The analysis has been conducted on the various market segments derived on the basis of type, products, models, voltage network, and geography. On the basis of type, the market is segmented into tap changing, tapped, and rectifier; on the basis of application, the market is segmented into Locomotives, EMUs, and Trams; and on the basis of voltage stock, the market is segmented into AC & DC traction transformers market. The report also includes the key market drivers and inhibitors, along with their impact, in detail.

Apart from a general overview of the major companies in this market, this report also provides financial analysis, products, services, and the key developments of the major players in the industry. ABB (Switzerland), Siemens AG (Germany), and Alstom SA (France) are leading players covered in the South American traction transformer market.

The South American traction transformer market is estimated to grow due to various factors. The market for traction transformers in South America is estimated to grow from $51.8 million in 2014 to $64.3 million by 2019, at a CAGR of 4.4% from 2014 to 2019.
