Smart grid technologies include transmission upgrades, substation automation, distribution automation, smart grid IT/OT, and smart metering. Many complex smart grid programs based on these technologies have begun, but the scale of what remains to be done is enormous. A number of countries with populations over 100 million have not yet seen notable smart grid deployment activity, and Africa, with its population of 1 billion, has seen very little at all. All of this suggests that the market is likely to continue robust growth beyond 2020.

Though smart grid technologies still constitute an immature market, they already total $33 billion in annual revenues. Key drivers in the sector include the integration of renewable energy sources in developed economies and the reduction of non-technical losses in less developed economies. Navigant Research forecasts that annual smart grid revenues will grow to $73 billion by 2020, at a compound annual growth rate of over 10%. Even then, the market will not nearly be saturated, with significant populations of the world still living in energy poverty and therefore remaining addressable markets.

This Navigant Research report examines the market dynamics and most important technology issues for smart grid technologies for the period from 2012 through 2020. The report profiles the key players in smart grid technologies, in eight categories: influential utilities, control system vendors, telecommunications vendors, smart metering vendors, application and services vendors, systems integrators, cyber security vendors, and standards associations. Analysis and forecasts are presented year-by-year and cumulatively through 2020, dissecting the market by smart grid application and by region, with further technology segmentation within each application.

Key Questions Addressed:
  • What is the size of the smart grid technologies market and how quickly will it grow, by region and by application, through 2020?
  • What is the size of each smart grid application market, by region?
  • What are the market dynamics, in terms of investment drivers, vendor strategies, and geographic consolidation?

A number of small startup companies have begun offering hardware and software products for smart street lighting systems. In this challenging emerging market, many of these startups have already failed, others have been acquired by larger lighting companies, and a few are flourishing on their own. Some of the larger control and lighting companies are developing their own products for this market, which will put pressure on smaller companies that have not yet secured a reliable revenue stream.

At the same time, new lamp options have recently become available for street lights, most notably LEDs. The market for these lamps is also in a period of transition. Dramatically falling costs and rising efficiencies of LED lamps are driving up sales. Costs have fallen as much as 50% over the last 18 months and are expected to continue falling for years to come. LED lamps allow for better dimming control than standard street lights, and their electronics allow for easy integration of control nodes. Rising sales of LED lamps will therefore drive up the adoption of smart street lighting systems. Pike Research expects the market for smart street lighting to grow steadily over the remainder of this decade. Shipments of smart street lighting systems, which will be under 200 worldwide for 2012, will reach more than 1,100 in 2020. Shipments of communications nodes, meanwhile, will rise from 550,000 this year to 4.8 million in 2020.

This Pike Research report analyzes the global market opportunity for lamp upgrades and networked lighting controls across five categories of public outdoor lighting: highways, roads, parking lots, city parks, and sports stadiums. The report provides a comprehensive assessment of the demand drivers, obstacles, policy factors, and technology issues associated with the growing market for street lighting controls. Key industry players are profiled in depth and worldwide revenue and capacity forecasts, segmented by lamp type and region, extend through 2020.

Key Questions Addressed:
  • How do changing codes and regulations related to street lighting affect the adoption of LED lamps and lighting controls?
  • What are the barriers hindering the adoption of street lighting controls and what are some potential ways to address these barriers?
  • What are the different lighting control and communications strategies that can be implemented, and what are the advantages and disadvantages of each?
  • Which companies are developing innovative new products and techniques for city managers to visualize and control their public lighting systems?

The past 18 months have marked the transition of the plug-in electric vehicle (PEV) into full commercialization. The electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) market is naturally a product of the PEV market, so the past year has seen a major uptick in EVSE deployments. In 2012, there will be almost 45,000 public charging stations installed globally. Much of this will be the result of publicly funded infrastructure initiatives. In comparison to government targets for PEVs, however, sales have been disappointing, and the relatively slow pace of PEV rollouts will act as a dampener on this market. With some exceptions, much of the private sector is waiting until PEVs are commonly seen on the roads in their areas before investing in charging infrastructure.

The EVSE industry is still trying to determine the best way to create a viable return on investment (ROI) on EVSE station deployments for site hosts. This issue is going to become front and center as the publicly funded EVSE deployments wind down. In these early months of the EVSE market, it has been relatively easy to encourage businesses to become site hosts when the EVSE equipment is free or heavily subsidized. Nevertheless, global sales of charging equipment are expected to grow at a steady pace as the plug-in vehicle (PEV) market grows. Pike Research projects that the global EVSE market will increase from fewer than 200,000 units sold in 2012 to almost 2.4 million in 2020.

This Pike Research report examines the state of the global EVSE market today, and provides forecasts through 2020. Including market analysis and forecasts for residential, workplace, public, and private EVSE, the report covers the development of fast charging over the past year and forecasts DC charging sales. It also forecasts the growth of wireless charging equipment, set to become commercially available in the 2013–2015 timeframe. EVSE forecasts cover the major regions of the world and include breakouts for key adopter countries including the United States, Canada, Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Japan, China, Korea, and Israel. The report also includes profiles of over 40 industry players, including EVSE manufacturers and service providers, their suppliers, vehicle OEMs, and utilities.

Key Questions Addressed:
  • How many charging stations will be installed for residential use or for commercial use, for the workplace, for private use, and for public use?
  • How many DC charging units will be installed through 2020?
  • When will wireless charging equipment begin to appear for consumer applications, and how will this market expand through 2020?
  • What are the differences between the EVSE markets and market drivers in different regions of the world?
  • What are the challenges to a successful business model for public charging equipment?

Electric utilities’ approaches to integrating distributed energy resources using microgrids have varied widely in recent years. Some companies view utility distribution microgrids with a skeptical eye at best, and at worst as an existential threat to their traditional business models. Meanwhile, a handful of utility innovators are moving forward with microgrid projects despite significant institutional bias and regulatory obstacles, leveraging a wide range of smart grid technologies and utilizing new architectures to pursue creative solutions for the integration of renewable energy, the improvement of grid reliability, and the reduction of peak load. These early adopters are heralding a future in which microgrids will become a more prevalent part of the distribution utility landscape.

North America represents the largest market for all microgrid segments in terms of aggregate capacity, including utility distribution microgrids. Key drivers of microgrid adoption in the region include pockets of poor power quality and the structure of behind-the-meter markets for distributed energy resources. Pike Research also anticipates that the Asia Pacific region will be a world leader in terms of utility distribution microgrid revenues, due in large part to the rapid growth of renewable distributed energy generation and the interwoven relationships between municipal governments, state-run grids, and government-owned distribution utilities.

This Pike Research report analyzes the global market opportunity for utility distribution microgrids, including applications for investor-owned utilities, public power entities, and remote utility networks. The study includes a comprehensive assessment of the market drivers and challenges, technology issues, and economics of operating microgrids in grid-tied utility environments around the world. Key industry players are profiled in depth, and market forecasts for capacity and revenue are provided by utility type and region through 2018.

The concept of smart government situates public sector organizations within a web of innovations that are shaping the technical fabric of our societies. Above all, the growing interest in smart cities and communities is putting the spotlight on the smarter government operations that must guide their development. Smart government can be defined as the use of innovative policies, business models, and technology to address the financial, environmental, and service challenges facing public sector organizations. Smart government encompasses strategy and policy definition, specific applications and technologies to help improve service delivery and the establishment of new platforms for communication, data sharing, and application development.

Smart government builds on the IT infrastructure investments made by the public sector over the last decade. Back-office systems have helped improve process efficiency and the integration of services. Front-office systems have been adapted to support multi-channel communication with citizens and a growing range of transactional services. Smart government continues this transformation and also embraces innovations happening in areas such as energy, transport, and waste management, particularly in relation to the drive toward increased sustainability.

Community and residential energy storage systems are sited at the “end of the line” on the grid. These systems are typically much smaller than utility-scale or bulk energy storage and are either situated at the distribution transformer or at the customer premise. Of the varied application areas for energy storage systems, community and residential storage is one of the newest and least understood applications. Currently, utilities, vendors, and even governments are demonstrating community and residential energy storage systems with a goal of understanding the value of these small, distributed systems sited at the edge of the electrical grid. These groups are testing CRES for the purposes of smoothing peaks in electricity demand, enabling voltage support and frequency regulation, and providing islanding capabilities.

Although the CRES sector is still nascent, market conditions, technology capabilities, and economics are beginning to align in a way that points to significant growth opportunities over the coming decade. The expansion of distributed solar photovoltaics capacity, the adoption of plug-in electric vehicles, and the spread of dynamic pricing programs will all be key drivers in the growth of such distributed energy storage systems. However, current barriers to CRES include the need for further refinement of business models for community and residential deployments, regulatory barriers related to financial structures, and the identification of cost/benefit models for various CRES applications.

This Pike Research report assesses the market opportunity for the utilization of battery-based energy storage systems in community and residential deployments. Key applications covered include voltage support, frequency regulation, islanding, and peak shaving using lithium ion, advanced lead-acid, and flow battery technologies. The study includes profiles and SWOT analysis for key industry players as well as global revenue and installed capacity forecasts, segmented by technology and region, for the period from 2012 to 2022.

Key Questions Addressed:
  • What are the key applications for distributed energy storage systems?
  • What are the market drivers and barriers for community energy storage and how do they differ for residential energy storage?
  • What is the technology mix for CRES in each global region and how will it change over time?
  • What regions will be the global leaders in CRES and why?

The concept of intelligent transportation encompasses a huge range of systems and applications. Smart electric vehicle (EV) charging, citywide traffic monitoring, real-time traveler information, transit signal priority, and centralized fleet vehicle management can all be classified as forms of intelligent transportation systems (ITS) or smart transport. What makes them smart is the use of embedded intelligence to connect vehicles to each other and to infrastructure, as well as to central operational sites. Transportation systems are also considered smart when they are applied to achieve smart policy goals in the urban environment, such as enhanced mobility, lower emissions, reduced fuel consumption, improved safety, or economic competitiveness.

Demand for ITS will grow in both the developed and developing economies. Developed economies will see ITS as a cost effective way to maximize existing transportation infrastructure and improve city services. Developing cities will incorporate ITS as they build out their transportation infrastructure. Pike Research estimates that global investment in smart transportation systems will total $13.1 billion between 2011 and 2017. Most of this investment will be in intelligent traffic management systems, as this is the sector with the broadest range of potential applications. It is also the sector that is applicable for all cities and it is expected that interest will grow in developing countries in the latter part of this forecast period.

The Pike Research report focuses on four key smart transportation sectors: traffic management systems, smart charging for plug-in electric vehicles, public transportation systems, and vehicle-to-vehicle systems. The study provides a comprehensive examination of market drivers for smart transportation infrastructure investment, including an assessment of the various approaches being taken in key countries around the world. Key industry players are profiled and market forecasts for each region are provided through 2017.

Key Questions Addressed:
  • What is ITS and what are the major applications?
  • What are some of the macro trends driving ITS investment?
  • Who are the key players in the ITS space?
  • What investment level is anticipated for traffic management systems, smart charging, public transit ITS and vehicle to vehicle systems?
