Key Issues Addressed

Demand Response (DR) is a mechanism to alter changes in patterns in electricity consumption by consumers through pricing signals and incentives, thereby reducing peak demand and strengthening grid flexibility. DR covers intentional modifications on the customer’s electricity usage patterns via altering the time of use and duration of use. DR has tr...

Diesel generator sets (gensets) are widely utilized to provide reliable mobile, stationary, or temporary on-site power, in an array of applications ranging from back-up power generation in mission-critical applications, such as hospitals and data centres, to peak-load generation in electrical grids. The European diesel genset market is experiencing...

Gas generator sets will play an important role in the energy mix of Europe, principally for prime power applications. Mainly used in industrial and commercial applications, the gas genset market is being driven by increasing renewable power generation, which creates the need for flexible baseload power to compensate for the intermittent nature of r...

The European smart meters market is very much in the growth stage of its life cycle, with massive investment and acceleration anticipated within the current decade. Currently Sweden and Italy are the only mature markets in Europe. Smart meter developments are taking place in countries like Denmark, Finland and Norway, while large scale rollouts ha...

Germany was an early leader in renewable energy; although its pace has slowed, the country still continues to make significant investment in new wind and solar capacity. This investment must be supported by investment in new grid interconnections to ensure that the electricity generated is used and not wasted. Austria has also followed Germany's le...
