New and Future Business Models for Energy Utilities

Distributed Generation, Smart Technology, and Renewable Energy Drive Business Model Innovation

Infographics

×

The traditional utility business model of a pure-play centralised power producer and provider will soon be extinct. Distributed generation (DG) will increasingly feature in new utility value propositions as utilities try to capture more downstream opportunities. These will include several models, from an aggregator of DG to providing complete energ...

The North American high-voltage circuit breaker market has been analyzed on the basis of the voltage classes: 72.5kV, 115kV, 123kV, 145kV, 170kV, 245kV, 352kV, 550kV, and 800kV. The report is segmented based into the sub-transmission (72.5kV) and transmission (greater than 72.5kV) segments. Based on the construction type, the circuit breaker market...

The global penetration rate for smart metering is forecast to increase from just over 40% at the start of 2022 to 65% by 2030. This growth will lead to an increased demand for meter data management (MDM) software. First-generation meters largely focus on basic functions such as billing and time-of-use pricing. With the growth of decentralized energ...

A gas insulated switchgear (GIS), typically housed in a high voltage substation, is a critical component in the substations of the transmission network of utilities or in energy-intensive industrial units. In general, GIS structures are contained in a metal-sealed environment with sulfur hexafluoride gas (SF6) as the insulating medium. A GIS’s basi...

The global medium voltage (1-38kV) and high voltage (greater than 38kV) switchgear market is a mature one with steady growth across the globe driven by factors such as replacement of aged infrastructure, rising power demand, and growing renewable and industrial establishments. The study aims to analyze and forecast the global switchgear market. Res...
