Global Smart Grid Market Driven by Increasing Incidences of Power Loss during Distribution

sm
Smart grid refers to the modernization of the conventional power grid, which allows for a reliable and secure electrical service. It incorporates the advantages of distributed computing and communication to provide real time information and enable momentary restoration of power. The Ssmart grid is expected to make the existing power grid smart more efficient by applying and linking seamless communication systems that, which can gather, process, and store large amounts of data. The data is then communicated to the components connected to the smart grid, allowing them to respond with an automated control. Smart grid is responsible for distribution of electricity, controlling the production of electricity, and electric power conditioning.

Emergence of Smart City Concept in Developing Countries to Offer Lucrative Opportunities for Smart Grid Players

tmr-160x160
A smart grid provides a comparatively more secure and reliable electrical service, making it superior to conventional grids in terms of efficiency and control. The seamless communication system and distributed communication and computing in the power grid offered by smart grid technology has encouraged the growth of the global smart grid market. In addition, the increased efficiency acquired through optimization of the grid is expected to boost the demand for smart grids across the globe. As per a research study presented by Transparency Market Research, the global smart grid market is expected to grow from US$37.7 bn in 2012 and reach a value of US$118.1 bn by the end of 2019. The market is expected to register a notable 18.20% CAGR between 2013 and 2019.
In this blog, TMR offers answers to several vital questions related to the growth prospects, latest trends, and opportunities in the global smart grid market.
Which regions will lead to most promising returns on investment?
As per the TMR research study, Asia Pacific is expected to be the most lucrative region for smart grid market players. The increased consumption of electricity in these regions and the high rate of urbanization are the key factors boosting the demand for smart grids in Asia Pacific. The need to introduce alternative measures to save and generate electricity in Japan, China, and India is supplementing the growth of the market.
What are the challenges faced by the key players in developed as well as developing economies?
One of the key barriers faced by the key players operating in the global smart grid market is the lack of proper standards for implementation of a new technology. The lack of these standards is expected to increase the probability of placing a commercial risk on customers and utilities and create complexity in technology selection. Furthermore, in developing regions, poor power distribution is considered as one of the primary factors impeding the global smart grid market. Despite a dynamic economy, several emerging nations are facing this problem, which needs high attention of respective governments. These factors are projected to restrict the growth of the global smart grid market in the coming years.
What factors are expected to change the dynamics of the global smart grid market?
The introduction of flexible and favorable regulations is one of the key factors expected to augment the growth of the global smart grid market in the coming years. The high level of quality and security of power supply offered by the implementation of smart grid technology is also expected to boost the demand for smart grids across the globe. The concept of smart city introduced by several emerging nations has been encouraging the use of smart grids, thus fuelling the growth of the global market.
In addition, prepayment of electricity is expected to create a promising market for smart grid in the coming years. Furthermore, the emergence of ERIGrid project to develop an effective smart grid system that can manage substantial inflow of renewable energy is expected to drive the global market. In addition, the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Electricity and Energy Reliability along with GridWise Alliance are developing industry-driven vision of the future smart grid with a view of developing a balance between demand and supply with ever rising energy demand.
Furthermore, governments across the globe are focusing on the use of more renewable energy sources. However, supply of renewable power, such as hydro, solar, and wind can be unreliable, thus making it challenging for grid operators to integrate them into the systems. This scenario warrants the need for microgirds, which can effectively integrate renewables into the smart grid, creating lucrative opportunities for key players.

Increasing Power Demand makes BRICS Nations a Lucrative Market for Smart Grid Technology, finds TMR

tmr-160x160
The top three companies – Sensus, Silver Spring Networks, and Siemens - along with the five other key players, Aclara, Schneider Electric, Landis+Gyr, Itron, and Alstom, account for nearly 60% of the global smart grid market, reports Transparency Market Research in a new study. The lack of clear leader in this space is likely to take competition to a new high in the short term, TMR expects. However, capital-intensive investment and limited scope of product differentiation hamper the entry of new players in the smart grid market. “The high growth rate of global smart grid market can be very encouraging for the new entrants, but the various government incentives for the deployment of smart grid can potentially inhibit their entry,” the author of the study states.
Excellent Inherent Operational Efficiency Likely to Boost Deployment of Smart Grids
The three most promising advantages of the smart grid technology are likely to cater the various power related issues across the globe. First, the enhanced operational efficiency helps in resolving the excessive consumption of electricity. Emerging countries such as Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa are anticipated to register a rapid rise in the demand for power. This calls for the development of such end-use appliances and infrastructure that can operate at lower power levels efficiently. Hence, the growing need for efficient devices coupled with increasing demand for power is estimated to bolster the growth of global smart grid market.
Heavy transmission and distribution losses are unaffordable with the increasing population and industrialization across the globe. The smart grid technology minimizes these losses by providing an uninterrupted supply of electricity, thereby eliminating wastage of power units. Moreover, deployment of smart grid can potentially eliminate the cases of electricity theft. Annually, the technology can reduce power transmission and distribution losses between 5% and 10%.
The third advantage of the smart grid is most applicable to countries such as India, where a large population is still not connected to the conventional grid. The deployment of smart grid in such areas can substantially increase the growth rate of global smart grid market.

Government Regulations Help Smart Grid Market Grow in North America and Asia Pacific
The key reason for the impressive growth in the two regions is their government policies that facilitate the smart grid business. Incentives for smart grid are expected to increase efficiency in generation and licensee operations, enhance network security, manage electricity infrastructure effectively, improve customer and proactive consumer service level, integrate renewable and decentralized generation into the grid, and enhance network visibility and access.
Transmission Upgrades to Lose Share to Advanced Metering Infrastructure
“Smart grid technology is a step towards better communication infrastructure and advanced automated system,” states TMR analyst. The global revenue of smart grid market was US$ 37.68 bn in 2012 and is anticipated to rise to US$118.12 bn by the end of the year 2019. By technology, the market has been segmented into Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI), Distribution Automation (DA), Communication Technologies (CT), Cyber Security (CS), Transmission Upgrades (TU), and Software and Hardware (S&H). Transmission Upgrades, which was at US$27.66 bn in the year of 2015, is expected to rise to US$53.34 bn in terms of revenue by 2019. The segment will maintain its leadership throughout the period, however, the growing popularity of advanced metering infrastructure may result in reduced shares of the former.
In terms of geography, Asia Pacific leads the market and is expected to retain its leadership with 47% share in the global market by the end of 2019. North America stood second in terms of market share and is anticipated to account for 21% share by the end of 2019.
