Covid-19 Analysis
COVID-19 has severely impacted the global economy with devastating effects on global trade, which has simultaneously affected households, business, financial institution, industrial establishments and infrastructure companies. The novel coronavirus has affected several economies ad caused lockdown in many countries which has limited the growth of the market. The shutdown of industrial manufacturer led to the decline in the demand for solar related equipment in most of the countries across the world led to decline in the demand of the electric capacitor market. The decrease in utilization of power in the industrial facilities across the globe during the outbreak has a negative impact on the development of the market.The outbreak of COVID-19 in China and its spread across numerous countries around the world halted the manufacturing activities of industrial sectors which correspondingly hampered high voltage capacitor manufacturing as well. The raw material procurement was also challenged owing to outbreak of COVID-19. The revenue streams of government of numerous countries were halted which correspondingly hindered the government funded transmission and distribution projects. This consequently decreased the demand for high voltage capacitors. It is expected that as economies of numerous countries are recovering the government funded transmission and distribution projects might resume as soon as possible. The above mentioned factors will increase the demand for high voltage capacitor. The trend is expected to continue during the forecast period.

Executive Summary
According to the report, titled, “Electric Capacitor Market," the electric capacitor market size was valued at $16.4 billion in 2021, and electric capacitor industry is estimated to reach $30.4 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 6.4% from 2022 to 2031.Capacitors are electronic components that are capable of storing electric charge in the form of electrostatic field. Low voltage capacitors usually contain low voltage-carrying conductors. They are made of aluminum foil or metal and a dielectric made of ceramic, plastic film, glass, paper, air, and mica, which are used for improving the quality of power and correcting the power factor.
Low voltage capacitors are used in low voltage networks to improve the power factor. These capacitors thereby improve operation efficiency and power savings in industrial and power applications. High voltage capacitors offer simple and reliable reactive power to enhance system efficiency, performance, and quality. It is utilized under oil for peaking in large pulse power systems or pulse shaping. The capacitors are produced utilizing foil electrode windings and dielectric.
