BEIJING- March 17, 2009 – China’s Automatic Process Controllers (APC) market is worth an estimated RMB 17 Bn for year-end 2009, a new GCiS study shows. The study defines APC as the distributed control systems (DCS), process logic controllers (PLC), and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) products that are used in the supervision, group and unit control of primary production technology.

The APC market grew by 12% in 2009 and is expected to grow by a CAGR of 12% through 2014 to be valued at RMB 31 Bn. The bulk of this demand growth would be coming from heavy industries such as chemicals, petrochemicals, oil and gas, and power which are large consumers of DCS, PLC and SCADA. The metallurgical industry is also seeing strong growth and is primarily a driver of the PLC market.

Expansion within the power, petrochemicals and chemicals industries is occurring as rapid economic development continues in China. The government (active in controlling many of these industries) has provided investment funding which is providing financial support (via RMB 4 Trillion stimulus package) and is increasing access to electricity and water to the population.
