Industry Trends and Drivers:

Smart grid market trends

Smart Grid Market has the promise for a major transformation, with changes underway and consumer wants. In this context, investment in advanced technology, such as IoT and AI, will adapt grid efficiency and reliability and integration from 2024 renewable energy sources in grid fully. Regulatory frameworks will evolve as a result, and supportive policies will drive new installations of smart grid solutions which will see utilities adopt the smart grid to improve their infrastructure. Consumer engagement is quite significant as more and more people will demand for control over their energy consumption through ramping up smart meters, smart meters, and energy management systems.

This trend will encourage more participatory energy system, with the consumers getting involved & exercising control over on their energy consumption. In general, the smart grid market is going to grow very quickly because of the increase in technological advancements and government support than before as well as gaining consumer dominance in management.

Technology Advancements and Integration into the Market

Smart grid market is expanding rapidly due to the lucrative growth from the rapid technological advancements and integration with customized digital solutions into traditional functions like automation. New communication technologies, including IoT devices; advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) and cloud are transforming how energy is managed and delivered. These technologies are anticipated to make a significant impact on grid reliability, efficiency, and resilience; assisting in the ability of utilities to better maintain demand and supply by 2024.

And now, one of the key trends in this space is incorporating distributed renewable energy sources from things like solar and wind into grid (upon which balance/ stability controls must be effective).

Therefore, with utilities putting more money towards upgrading their infrastructure to support the technology; there will be a need to increase the usage of smart grid solutions which signals a larger move away from traditional energy practices and management.

Initiatives and Support under Regulatory Policies

The smart grid market landscape is rapidly being shaped by key trends in every corner of Regulatory support and policy initiatives. Across the world, governments are slowly starting to understand the necessity of an overhauled energy infrastructure to meet sustainability and climate goals. The growth of this sector will be pushed by policy and industry measures in place to advance smart grid technology, with investments expected in 2024 due to a rise of the various policies, inducements for various stakeholders. Tax credits, grants and funding programs for smart grid projects are being touted to get utilities to embrace cutting-edge technology and improve their grid functionality.

Also, ever more stringent regulatory frameworks requiring increasing amounts of renewable energy and energy-efficiency are pushing the demand for smart grids. As policy evolves, the smart grid market will likely expand in support with that change (creating more innovative and collaborative partnerships within energy pay-as-you-go).

The surge in consumer demand to manage energy.

In the smart grid market, consumer engagement is rising as more people want greater control over their energy consumption and prices. Consumers will be enabled the ability to access their real time energy consumption starting with smart meters and onward to energy management systems (EMS) by 2024, making smarter decisions on the amount and type of electricity they consume. Rising demand for this type of energy management systems is making utilities develop the consumer interface and applications to be more interactive and easier to use. In addition, as people become more aware about the potential savings on energy costs, they will look for ways to live a more sustainable life including adopting energy-efficiency practices that foster the need for smart grid technologies.

The evolution of a more participative energy framework, where consumers will directly regulate their own energy resources, is going to significantly change both market dynamics and the demand for smart grid solutions.
