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...

As the smart grid continues to develop, metering is a key building block in the process, enabling the accurate measurement of consumption and allowing utility companies to move toward real-time pricing and policies to try and reduce peak demand. The market is being driven by increased regulations and, in some markets, a desire to minimise non-techn...

Pressure to reduce costs, improve revenues, and become more competitive has prompted investor-owned utilities to utilize outsourcing transmission and distribution (T&D) services. Recent winter storms, which hit the states between 2012 and 2013, prompted utilities to invest rugged T&D infrastructure. Furthermore, the addition of renewable power on t...

The cyber security solutions market has been analyzed on the basis of the five different services, namely Network Access & Operations (NA&O), Analytics & Compliance (A&C), Security Services (SS), Internet Property Defense (IPD), and Device Management (DM). This report is segmented based on solutions offered for the transmission & distribution (T&D)...

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 smart meter market continued to register strong growth in 2018, as major rollouts continued to accelerate, pilot projects became larger projects and the first second-generation smart meter installations occurred. China will remain the most important country market, accounting for approximately 50% of shipments across the forecast period,...
