A smart grid is an automated energy delivery network that utilizes smart solutions, computers, and sensors to improve flexibility, safety, security, reliability and efficiency of the electricity system. It is characterized by the two-way flow of electricity and information and includes various types of energy measures such as smart appliances and renewable energy resources. The bidirectional flow of information allows utilities and consumer to co-operate and interact in a very efficient manner. The global smart grid market has witnessed opulent growth over the past few years owing to its carbon emissions reductions capability. Smart grid technology is a costly business to develop and deploy, but the proper installation of this technology provides effective operational efficiencies which completely outweigh costs. Operational efficiencies offered by smart grid have led to the massive adoption of this technology across major end-user industries such as manufacturing and telecommunication.

Smart Grid Market Dynamics

The global smart grid market is anticipated to grow exponentially due to the emergence of advanced technologies that can meet rising need for a responsive and automated power grid. Key factors driving the global smart grid market includes a decline in the costs of devices and networking technologies. Also, increasing emphasis on reliability and energy efficiency and favorable government policies are fueling the growth of the global smart grid market. Other factors such as growing demand for secure and reliable power supply, and enhanced operational efficiency is expected to drive the growth of the market over the forecast period. However, the limited scope of product differentiation and the high cost of deployment are few restraints anticipated to hamper growth of global smart grid market during 2016-2021.
