The HVDC transmission import shipments to El Salvador in 2024 continue to be dominated by key exporting countries such as China, Mexico, Spain, USA, and Japan. The market concentration, as measured by the HHI, has increased significantly from 2023 to 2024, indicating a very high concentration of imports among these countries. The industry has experienced a negative compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of -1.75% from 2020 to 2024, with a further decline in the growth rate from 2023 to 2024 at -2.74%. This data suggests a challenging market environment for HVDC transmission imports in El Salvador.

The HVDC transmission market in El Salvador is experiencing growth as the demand for efficient long-distance power transmission systems increases. HVDC transmission systems are known for their ability to transport large amounts of electricity over vast distances with minimal energy loss, making them ideal for connecting renewable energy sources to urban areas. With growing investments in renewable energy infrastructure and the need for enhanced grid capacity, the HVDC transmission market in El Salvador is expected to expand further.
The HVDC transmission market in El Salvador is expanding as part of the broader trend toward more efficient energy solutions. HVDC transmission systems are ideal for long-distance transmission of power with minimal losses, making them especially useful for connecting remote renewable energy sources to urban centers. The country`s increasing focus on renewable energy projects and improving power grid infrastructure is driving the growth of HVDC transmission systems. These systems are seen as critical for ensuring stable and efficient electricity delivery, especially as the demand for clean energy grows.
The HVDC transmission market in El Salvador faces hurdles with insufficient infrastructure investment and regulatory support. Integrating HVDC technology into an existing AC grid poses technical challenges, as does the high cost of the infrastructure itself. Additionally, El Salvador`s reliance on external expertise and equipment makes HVDC projects slower and more expensive to implement.
The government of El Salvador plays an active role in developing policies that support the growth of the HVDC transmission market. HVDC technology is crucial for efficient, long-distance power transmission, and the government incentivizes the adoption of these systems to modernize the national electricity grid. Regulations ensure that HVDC transmission lines and systems comply with safety, environmental, and technical standards. The government also provides funding for infrastructure projects aimed at improving energy transmission and reducing losses in the national grid, contributing to the countrys energy security.
