Summary
The global microgrid market is forecast to increase from REDACTED in 2016 to REDACTED in 2017,rising to nearly REDACTED by 2022 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of REDACTED over the five-year forecast period. Distributed renewable energy microgrid technology holds significant potential as akey driver for increasing energy access for millions of people around the word without access to energyas well as for providing reliable and stable power to industry. Because the microgrid approach to electrical distribution allows local users more flexibility on control over the optimization of power sources and uses, it is growing in appeal.
Microgrids are an extension of on-site generators, or dedicated power supplies, sometimes called captive generation. Technically, a microgrid is a grouping of small, independent power-generating equipment connected to computer systems that monitor, control and balance energy demand and supply and storage in response to changing energy needs. They can also be cleaner if solar or wind is used as part of the energy mix. Now that solar panel prices have fallen, distributed solar can be cheaper than running diesel generators alone for backup power. The microgrid market is therefore undergoing a transformation from a niche application intended for military bases, telecommunication base stations and remote communities to national grid extenders, a grid modernization tool for utilities, cities, communities and public institutions.
The largest microgrid segment throughout the forecast period will be the grid-connected microgrid market, valued at REDACTED in 2016 and forecast to increase from REDACTED in 2017 at a CAGR of REDACTED to reach REDACTED by 2022. Grid-connected systems will primarily be found in more developed countries, where the main aim of the user is not necessarily power provision, but power supply resiliency and reliability.
