Distributed Energy Resource Management System Market

Distributed Energy Resource Management System Market Size Analysis

According to a recent survey conducted by ChemView Consulting, the Global Distributed Energy Resource Management System Market grew at a CAGR of 13.4% between 2017-2021 and is estimated to be US$ 351.2Mn in 2022. Currently, the market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 17.5% and is expected to reach a valuation of US$ 1,761.7Mn by 2032 end.

Energy demand has increased due to the tremendous progress in industry and urbanization worldwide. Massive investments in renewable energy production have been made due to the increasing energy demand to support the world’s current standard of living.

Demand for distributed energy resource management systems has increased due to the growth of the renewable energy sector and distributed generating (DERMS). Distributed energy resource management uses software and networking to maintain remotely, control, analyze, and manage energy resources, including solar, wind, and CHP.

RISING NEED TO PRODUCE ENERGY USING RENEWABLE SOURCES, COUPLED WITH SUPPORTING GOVERNMENT MANDATES AND RENEWABLE ENERGY POLICIES

An easily replenishable natural source of energy is renewable energy. Countries worldwide are concentrating on producing power from renewable sources to decarbonize the power distribution system and assure environmental preservation. The annual installation of renewable capacity surpassed 280 GW in 2020, the largest year-over-year growth since 1999.

Despite the significant effects of pandemics on the global supply chain, the addition of renewable capacity increased by more than 45% in 2020 compared to 2019. The increase in wind capacity expansions worldwide increased by 90%. This record growth was supported by a 23% increase in new solar PV installations, expected to reach approximately 135 GW in 2020. This will probably increase the demand for distributed energy resource management systems.

HIGHER INITIAL INSTALLATION COST OF DISTRIBUTED ENERGY RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

Deploying a distributed energy resource management system requires a significant upfront investment. To transform infrastructures, both local and national governments play a crucial role. The transmission network between clients and the smart grid must be established using expensive technology.

Additionally, a successful deployment calls for major process change, strict oversight, and strong cooperation beyond conventional organizational boundaries. After deployment, high operations and maintenance costs are a major worry for utility suppliers. Decreasing the need for increased oil recovery as a result.

INCREASING INVESTMENTS FOR MODERNIZING AGING GRID INFRASTRUCTURES

Increased investments in the grid’s digitalization through cutting-edge communication technologies will drive the market expansion for distributed energy resource management systems. As part of its development plan for urbanization, China intends to invest USD 6 trillion in infrastructure over the following ten years. The estimated value of the corporate and public investments for the urbanization of the infrastructure in the UK is USD 375 billion. As a result, the market for distributed energy resource management systems is given chances by these investments.
