The coronavirus pandemic has given a very tough time to most of the manufacturing, developing, production, and logistic units of the microgrid control system market. The policy of social distancing and lockdowns have resulted in restricting people from going out form their homes. But this pandemic has also created opportunities for some industries to grow. Like some companies are completely sitting unharmed during this pandemic.
So some industries will register a drop in demand and growth but some will register a rise in growth and will express promising growth opportunities. Whereas this pandemic has led to an increase in demand for residential or domestic electricity as people are staying at home and spending their most of time in their rooms. This rising electricity demand has also increased the demand for the micro-control grid system market.
With that, the demand for micro-grid backup solutions also increased as the people are working from their homes so they need a constant and undisrupted supply of electricity. But the use of such systems and their backups used in industries like manufacturing, aviation, transportation, etc. has been decreased due to these pandemic restrictions. But there is a ray of hope that when this restriction will be lifted the microgrid system market will bounce back tremendously.
Siemens Canada partnered with Humber College in March 2023 to create a Renewable Technology and Sustainable Microgrid Lab (SMART Lab) at the North Campus. Humber's investment in this SMART Lab is based on green digital technology supported by the Government of Ontario. For the microgrid control system, electric vehicle charging stations, solar Smartflower, and battery energy storage systems, among other devices, will be used to generate and distribute energy locally and enable more efficient, sustainable use and consumption of electricity.
In March 2023, ABB invested in Direct Energy Partners – a start-up that deals with Direct Current microgrids for accelerating energy transformation. The energy industry's shift towards direct current (DC) networks is critical, and this partnership reinforces ABB's technological leadership in a major future growth market.
In August 2022, engineering and management consulting firm Tetra Tech was developing a 300kW future Microgrid for Oldham Council in Greater Manchester. ABB declared that it would deliver electrical distribution boards and automation panels, among other things.
Most of the industries around the globe are calculated for 23% for carbon emissions worldwide, so the industries all around the world are trying to optimize their energy consumption to reduce carbon dioxide emissions and costs of operation. The micro-grid control systems market growth will increase tremendously because such systems are capable of reducing the cost of energy to a greater extent and also increase the efficiency of working of the industry.
Further industries to reduce operational costs are engaging more storage in micro-grid control systems to cope up with backup needs and for providing excess energy to systems for their effective and efficient working. Power blackouts are very normal in a country like India. On daily basis, the whole world faces a daily power dim-out of 1lakh MW. If we compare the micro-grid control systems with traditional backup systems, the micro-grid control system is proved to be a more efficient one.
Also, the reason that microgrids can work without the main grid and then also provide sufficient power for long durations independently.
The micro-grid control system is the latest technology in the market for which there is a requirement for its regular maintenance. The cost of regularly maintaining it is very high because of the specific requirement of skilled labor in the process. This in turn will also increase the operating cost of the system. This is the only reason or factor which will hinder the micro-grid control system drastically.
Also, there is a need to create some awareness among the industries about this micro-grid control system as this factor's lack of awareness about the new technological advancements may prove to be a roadblock in way of the micro-grid control system market growth.
For the first time, this type of system has been developed that can provide energy to the end-user according to its needs. As this solution is very cost-effective most house owners and small & medium-sized enterprises are preferring micro-grid control systems to cope up with their needs.
Due to its efficient working and effective results, massive and complex grid systems are being adopted by educational campuses and the defense industry. Also, the manufacturers who want to establish their private network of power are making huge investments in the micro-grid system to ensure their backups and continuous power supply.
To get a detailed and acute idea about the microgrid control system market insights, it is very crucial to create a competitive environment amongst the different key players at different market locations all around the globe. At this point, only one strategy is being used by the key players and that is partnerships and collaborations. This very industry prime players include: -
