The building-to-grid technology market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $98.35 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to expansion of b2g-enabled smart grids, adoption of distributed energy resources, growth in commercial and residential energy storage, integration of ai-driven energy optimization, supportive regulations for renewable energy injection. Major trends in the forecast period include integration of building energy management systems with grid, advanced smart metering deployment, deployment of battery energy storage systems, automated demand response systems, vehicle-to-grid (v2g) integration.
The rising demand for electricity is expected to significantly drive the growth of the building-to-grid technology market in the coming years. This increase in electricity demand is attributed to factors such as urbanization, technological advancements, and the growing reliance on electric devices and renewable energy systems. Building-to-grid technology enhances electricity utilization by enabling buildings to feed excess energy back to the grid and adjust to fluctuations in grid demand. For instance, the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, a UK governmental department, reported in June 2024 that electricity demand rose by 1.2% in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023, reaching 86 terawatt-hours (TWh). As a result, the growing electricity demand is a key driver for the advancement of the building-to-grid technology market.
The rising adoption of smart buildings is expected to drive the growth of the building-to-grid technology market in the coming years. Smart buildings are defined as structures that utilize interconnected digital technologies, sensors, and automated systems to monitor, control, and optimize building functions such as energy usage, lighting, security, and occupant comfort in real time. The growing uptake of smart buildings is largely attributed to the increasing demand for energy efficiency, as these buildings leverage advanced sensors, automation, and data analytics to optimize energy consumption, lower operating costs, and reduce environmental impact. Building-to-grid technology supports smart buildings by enabling bidirectional energy interaction with the power grid, allowing buildings to optimize energy use, store excess energy, and feed surplus electricity back into the grid, thereby improving overall efficiency and grid stability. For instance, in July 2024, the U.S. Green Building Council, a US-based non-profit organization, reported that in 2024 it was involved in more than 46,000 residential projects certified under the LEED green building rating system, with 2023 recording nearly a 5% increase in new LEED residential project registrations. Therefore, the increasing adoption of smart buildings is contributing to the growth of the building-to-grid technology market.
In August 2024, Infogrid, a UK-based AI technology firm, acquired Buildings IOT for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition is poised to enhance Infogrid’s capacity to implement autonomous building efficiency measures, leading to substantial energy, carbon, and cost savings. It also marks a significant transition for the company from analytics to comprehensive building automation. Buildings IOT, based in the US, specializes in providing grid technology for adaptive buildings.
