新興国における省エネ機器・家電の需要増に伴い、AC電源の需要が増加し、市場シェアが拡大しています。
多くの発電所では、配電システムで使用される交流(AC)を発電しています。長距離送電を行う場合、交流は直流に比べて発電コストが低く、エネルギー損失も少ないです。長距離(1000km以上)の場合は、直流の方が交流より望ましい場合が多いです。直流とは異なり、交流は1秒間に何度も方向と電流が変化します。
電力網に直接接続されているほとんどの機械(例えば、工場の巨大なダイナモ)はAC電源を使用しており、家庭や企業のコンセントも交流が使用されています。ノートパソコンなどの直流機器には、交流を直流に変換するACアダプターが搭載されています。
さらに、AC電源には、変圧器を使用することで安価に効率よく電圧を昇圧できるなどの利点があります。また、AC電源は、送電線によるエネルギー効率の高い送電を可能にし、電力会社や消費者のコストを大幅に削減するほか、発電所で失われた電力を燃料で補う必要がないため、公害を減らすことができます。
エネルギー効率の高い機器への消費者のシフトが進むにつれ、さまざまなアプリケーションでAC電源の需要が高まっています。例えば、LED照明の生産ライン、ACモーター、医療機器試験、家電製品、航空電子機器、海洋機器試験などでは、すべてPWM方式のAC電源が使用されています。
PWMAC電源は、リニアAC電源に比べ、小型で高効率です。PWM方式では、高周波のパルスから低周波の信号を生成します。この方式では、より小さなトランスで交流波形を複数ビットに分割し、目的の電圧レベルに変換します。PWM方式のAC電源は効率が90%以上あり、電力損失が非常に少ないのが特徴です。
電源の安全性に関する規制の高まりが、予測期間中のAC電源の成長に対するさまざまなハードルになっている
電源レギュレーションとは、入力電圧や負荷の状態が変化しても、出力電圧を所定の許容範囲内に維持する電源の能力を指します。レギュレーションを持つ電源は、入力の主電源電圧の変動に関わらず、安定した出力を生成します。
例えば、エナジースターは、カリフォルニア州が初めて州法を制定した後、2004年に外部電源に関する最初の国家規格を作成し、発表しました。この規格は主にカリフォルニア州のオリジナル仕様に基づいていましたが、その後、最初の連邦政府の義務である「2007年エネルギー自立・安全保障法」の制定に利用されました。
EISA 2007法は、出力電力が250ワットのすべての単一出力外部電源を規制しました。無負荷時の待機電力を含め、外部電源の最低効率要件を定めました。さらに、さまざまな新興国がAC電源に関する規制を設けており、市場の成長を妨げています。
COVID-19の影響分析
COVID-19の大流行は、あらゆる業界の企業に大打撃を与えています。COVID-19の流行が始まると、世界中の規制機関が厳しい閉鎖や渡航禁止を実施せざるを得ないと感じています。さらに、これはAC電源の市場にも大きな影響を与えています。
COVID-19の流行によりサプライチェーンシステムが混乱し、政府機関から社会的距離を置く規範に従うよう厳しい指示が出されたため、産業界は少ない人員で運営せざるを得なくなり、生産量が低下しました。その結果、AC電源業界は大きな打撃を受けた。
しかし、COVID-19の大流行後、照明、家電、通信、輸送、食品・飲料、医療・ヘルスケア、軍事・航空宇宙、産業などの多様で革新的なAC電源の用途が、予測期間中のAC電源市場を牽引すると期待されています。

AC power source market reached US$ YY million in 2021 and is estimated to record significant growth by reaching up to US$ YY million by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 4.3% during the forecast period (2022-2029).
An AC power source, sometimes referred to as an AC power supply, is a device that can supply a load with variable power and frequency. An AC power source generates an alternating electrical current that can be used to power or test a separate piece of equipment by imitating electrical grid disruptions, harmonics, surges and other events that cause a device under test (DUT) to fail.
Electrical testing is common in aircraft, lighting, laboratory testing, military and factory production and AC power sources like the IT7321 AC Power source units are often utilized. The AC Power Source allows alternating current signals ranging from 45Hz to 500Hz.
It can also generate different sine waveforms, including traps, surges and dimmed phase waves for simulating different events. Furthermore, AC voltage stabilizers and frequency converters are the two main forms of AC power sources. Frequency converters have the ability to produce an arbitrary frequency while maintaining a constant output frequency.
Improving demand for energy-efficient devices/appliances in developing countries has escalated the demand for AC power sources, increasing market share.

Most power plants generate alternating current (AC) used by most power distribution systems. When transferring electricity over long distances, alternating current is less expensive to produce and has lower energy losses than direct current. Direct current is often preferable to alternating current over large distances (more than 1000 km). Unlike direct current, alternating current's direction and amperage vary multiple times every second.
Most machines directly connected to the electrical grid (for example, huge factory dynamos) use alternating current power sources and electrical outlets in homes and businesses also use alternating current. Laptops and other direct current devices have an AC adapter that converts alternating current to direct current.
Furthermore, the AC power source holds several advantages, such as Cheap and efficient voltage stepping by using transformers. Also, the AC power source allows for energy-efficient electrical transmission via powerlines which offers efficient transmission to save power companies and the consumer lots of money and help reduce pollution since power plants do not need to make up for lost electricity by using more fuel.
The growing shift of consumers towards energy-efficient devices boosts the demand for AC power sources among various applications. For instance, LED light production lines, AC motors, medical equipment testing, home appliances, avionics and marine equipment testing all use PWM AC power sources.
PWM AC power sources are smaller and more efficient than linear AC power sources. Low-frequency signals are generated from high-frequency pulses in the PWM process. The approach divides AC waveforms into multiple bits with a smaller transformer and converts them to the desired voltage level. PWM AC power sources have efficiency above 90%, resulting in very little power loss.
Growing regulations on power supply safety have created various hurdles for the growth of AC power sources to grow in the forecast period
Power supply regulation refers to a power supply's capacity to maintain an output voltage within a given tolerance despite changing input voltage and load conditions. A power supply with regulation produces a steady output regardless of the input mains voltage fluctuations.
For instance, Energy Star created and released its first national standard for external power supply in 2004, after California issued its first state legislation. The standard was primarily based on the original California specification, but it was later used to establish the first federal mandate, the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007.
The EISA 2007 act regulated all single-output external power supplies with an output power of 250 watts. It established minimum efficiency requirements for external power supplies, including standby power usage when no load is present. Furthermore, various developing countries are establishing regulations on AC power sources, hurdling market growth.
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
The COVID-19 pandemic has wreaked havoc on enterprises across practically every industry. As the COVID-19 pandemic unfolds, regulatory agencies worldwide feel compelled to implement strict lockdowns and travel bans. Furthermore, this has significantly impacted the market for AC power sources.
The supply chain systems were disrupted due to the COVID-19 pandemic and tight instructions from governmental bodies to obey social distancing norms compelled industries to operate with a small staff, resulting in a drop in output rates. As a result, these factors negatively impact the AC power source industry.
However, after the COVID-19 pandemic, diversified and innovative AC power source applications, such as lighting, consumer electronics, telecommunications, transportation, food & beverages, medical & healthcare, military & aerospace and industrial, are expected to drive the AC power source market in the forecast period.
The global AC power source market is segmented based on phase, modulation, application and region.
The three-phase system offers several advantages, including better operator safety, increased conductor efficiency and the ability to run at high loads, which is boosting the market share of the segment
The global AC power source market is segmented into single and three phases based on Phase. The three-phase segment is expected to increase at a high CAGR during the projection period. Three wires, one neutral wire and three semiconductors make up the three-phase AC power supply. Because there is equitable load distribution in a three-phase power supply, power transfer capacity is greater than in a single phase.
Furthermore, a constant stream of electricity is delivered with a three-phase power supply, allowing for more load to be carried. Laboratory testing, mass production, remote computer-based systems, high-power industrial motors, quality verification, oilfield instrumentation, network communication, audio & video equipment and aviation use three-phase AC power sources.
The three-phase system has several advantages, including better operator safety, increased conductor efficiency and running at high loads. Higher productivity and better load-bearing capability drive the expansion of three-phase AC power sources.
Thus, the advantages of the three-phase AC power source have encouraged the key players to invest in the product. For instance, Keysight Technologies offers AC6900 Series AC power sources that provide an AC and DC power solution by combining the capabilities of a harmonic analyzer, multimeter and power analyzer in one instrument. The AC6900 Series fulfills RTCA DO-160 and MIL-STD-704 specifications and is excellent for testing avionics equipment that works at 400 Hz, 800 Hz or 5,000 Hz. Pre-compliance testing is made easier with the PathWave avionics test suite.
