Power System State Estimators - Global Market Trajectory & Analytics

Global Power System State Estimators Market to Reach US$858.2 Million by the Year 2026

Power system state estimators help monitor, supervise and control the distribution and transmission networks. They make use of certain redundant measurements obtained from the power systems to identify the true state of the system. Although they are currently not deployed on a large-scale, they hold potential to deliver real-time protection and control of power systems in the future. Growth in the global market is led by factors including the emergence and increasing adoption of smart grids, the fast expanding and increasingly complex distribution and transmission networks and regulations supporting the use of energy-efficient systems. Power system state estimation appears poised to garner more attention with continuous shift from passive towards active distribution networks. The transition points towards the requirement of effective solutions to monitor and control electrical distribution systems in real-time and push operating performance of these systems.

Rising Investments in Smart Grids Bodes Well for Growth

Power system state estimators market is poised to gain from rising investments in smart grid domain. The growing global adoption of smart grids is a major contributor to the growth in demand for power system state estimators. Although smart metering devices deployed on the power grids provide higher resolution and highly accurate data for power system analysis, their deployment is not widespread owing to the high cost of such devices. Therefore, they are installed at critical locations on the power grid, which makes way for state estimators to make up for the missing links and even-out the noisy measurements, to deliver results that reflect the exact state of circuit parameters. Smart grids are increasingly being deployed across North American and European countries, while those in Latin America, Asia-Pacific and Middle East are showing interest in and preparing strategies to deploy smart grips in respective countries. Strong growth forecast for global smart grid market is in turn creating robust demand for common architectural, hardware, software and process components that are essential for or enhance the smart grid operations such as power system state estimators. Mounting pressure on utility operators to step up and modernize their grid operations and improve distribution efficiency to suffice the growing demand from consumers is encouraging utility operators to deploy smart grids in their infrastructure. Energy demand is significantly dependent on macro factors such as population growth, urbanization, commercial and industrial activity, consumer-spending trends, and economic scenario. Against the backdrop of mounting demand for energy and increasing need to manage the available energy resources, utility operators across the globe are turning to different types of smart grid components as a strategic response to enable superior grid operation and improved distribution efficiency.

This is helping open a new high-potential growth window for power system state estimators market. Smart grids necessitate the development of intelligent power T&D, where power system state estimators can play a significant role to enhances the reliability and efficiency of the grid. Smart grid system, which essentially involves upgrading the standard high voltage transmission network with efficient sensors, communication infrastructure, control algorithms and actuators for precise measurement of state of system, facilitate bi-directional communication of the system data. The mechanism enables analysis of incoming data and control signal generation so as to modify system state and actuators to enforce the requisite modifications to the transmission system are integrally dependent on smart transmission in order to efficiently manage the infrastructure.
