Automatic transfer switch (ATS) controller market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 10.6% during the forecast period (2024-2031). The market expansion of ATS controllers is supported by pivotal factors such as increasing integration of automated transfer switches across the energy infrastructure, advancement in smart grid technology, increasing investments in developing backup power stations, and expansion in industrial automation. Further, the shift towards the incorporation of energy-efficient devices, and the development of modular & technologically advanced ATS controllers is also contributing to the growth of the market.
Market Dynamics
Growing Demand for Reliable Energy Infrastructure
The constant need to develop and establish a stable power supply is driving demand in the ATS controller market. This trend of setting up reliable power supply infrastructure is supported by factors such as the growing dependency of critical infrastructure on constant power supply, economic implications of power losses, and rapid expansion in urbanization & electrification. In addition, increased attention toward building resilient energy infrastructure has promoted investments & efforts in developing projects that include automated technologies such as backup power systems and automatic transfer switches in the energy ecosystem. For instance, the US Department of Energy (DOE) announced nearly $2 billion for 38 projects under the Grid Resilience and Innovation Partnerships (GRIP) program to strengthen the power grid against extreme weather, reduce costs, and expand capacity for growing energy demands. Among these, DOE is funding Hoosier Energy Rural Electric Cooperative and Southern Illinois Power Cooperative to build looped transmission feeds for 10 substations across seven counties in Indiana and Illinois. These upgrades will enhance grid resilience by reducing weather-related outages and providing backup connections to improve reliability for local communities. These growing efforts are expected to prolong rising energy requirements & uninterrupted power supply needs, benefiting the deployment of ATS & ATS controllers in the future.
Rising Advancements & Integration of Smart Grid & IoT Enabled Technologies
In addition, increasing development for resiliency in the power supply is also complemented by the advancement & integration of smart grid & IoT-enabled technologies. Currently, these technologies are embedded with features such as DER management, dynamic power management, automated technologies, and microgrids that advance the adoption of ATS controllers. Individually, these characteristics combine to use ATS controllers for smooth power supply delegation when mains power supplies are down and the integration of automated technologies including ATS for real-time monitoring & control of the power supply. For instance, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA), the European Commission unveiled its "Digitalization of the Energy System" action plan at the end of 2022. The plan estimates that approximately $633 billion will be invested in the European electricity grid by 2030, with $184 billion allocated specifically for digitalization. This includes investments in smart meters, automated grid management, digital technologies for metering, and improvements in field operations.
Market Segmentation
Closed Transition Segment is Projected to Hold the Largest Market Share
Close transition ATS controllers are projected to dominate the segment, supported by factors such as overlap in power transition (utility & backup), operational superiority among all types, and better suitability for critical infrastructure. Further, the demand is expected to rise in the future owing to the growing emphasis on integrating uninterrupted & resilient components and the development of more efficient ATS controllers.
Emergency Systems to Hold a Considerable Market Share
Emergency power systems are expected to dominate the application segment, supported by factors such as the implication of wide usage of emergency systems across diverse sectors, the utility of emergency systems in critical infrastructure, and the growing use of automated components in emergency systems, among others. Further, the expansion of the application of ATS controllers in emergency systems can be attributed to regulatory requirements to develop resilient & automated emergency power systems, the growing need for deploying emergency systems in remote areas, and the expanding deployment of emergency systems.
Regional Outlook
The global ATS controller market is further segmented based on region including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and the Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (China, Japan, South Korea, India, and Rest of Asia-Pacific), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America).
Global Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) Controller Market Growth by Region 2024-2031
Asia-Pacific Dominates the Global ATS Controller Market
Asia-Pacific dominates the ATS controller market, contributed by rapid expansion in energy demand & related infrastructure, development of critical infrastructure equipped with backup power supply solutions, government emphasis on deploying smart & automation-enabled devices across energy projects, and low-cost manufacturing & wide availability of smart & IoT-enabled devices in the region. Further, the regional emphasis on deploying energy-efficient, automated, & resilient infrastructure components across the energy supply chain paired with extensively increasing energy demand is projected to be the prime driver for regional ATS controller market expansion. For instance, as per the International Energy Agency (IEA), Southeast Asia is a rapidly evolving region and a major driver of global energy trends. Energy demand in the region is projected to rise significantly in the coming decades, contributing more than 25% of global energy demand growth between now and 2035 in the Stated Policies Scenario (STEPS). This is a sharp increase from the 11% global demand growth the region accounted for since 2010. The rise in energy demand is driven by strong economic growth, population expansion, and Southeast Asia's pivotal role as a global manufacturing and industrial hub.
