Microgrid Control System Market worth $3.6 Bn by 2023

The microgrid control system market is expected to grow from an estimated USD 2.0 billion in 2018 to USD 3.6 billion by 2023, at a CAGR of 13.01%. Increasing investments in electric networks, refurbishment of the existing grid networks, and growing adoption of renewable energy sources across the globe are likely to drive the microgrid control system market.  Rising electrification projects and advancement in the Internet of Things (IoT), as well as communication technologies, can lead to opportunities in the microgrid control system market

The off-grid segment is expected to hold the largest share of the microgrid control system market, by grid-type, during the forecast period.
The off-grid segment led the microgrid control system market in 2018 and is projected to have the largest market share during the forecast period. Remote/island/off-grid microgrids are mainly used to provide diverse power sources for geographically remote communities and developing countries. This growth can be attributed mainly to the growing demand to attain reliable and sustainable power supply majorly in rural areas of the Asia Pacific and the Middle East & Africa region. Also, these type of microgrid control systems have a huge demand in military bases, mining, and oil & gas industries. Increasing focus to reduce diesel fuel consumption by integrating solar PV and distributed wind further drives the microgrid control system market.

The private segment is expected to hold the largest share of the microgrid control system market, by ownership, during the forecast period.
The private segment led the microgrid control system market in 2018. Factors such as increasing demand for electricity, rising power generation capacity, and increasing usage of renewable sources to generate electricity are expected to boost the demand for the private microgrid control systems. Private players find microgrid control system’s major application in defence, university campuses, and commercial and industrial end-users. Also, rising investments in electrification projects, in which microgrid technologies are highly deployed encourages private players to invest in the microgrid control system.
