The grid-enhancing technologies market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $5.28 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to expansion of renewable energy sources, adoption of advanced power electronics, growth in utility digital transformation initiatives, rising investment in grid modernization, deployment of real-time monitoring and analytics solutions. Major trends in the forecast period include real-time grid monitoring and control, grid planning and simulation services, dynamic line rating implementation, power flow optimization, integration of advanced conductors.
Rising electricity demand is anticipated to support the expansion of the grid-enhancing technologies market going forward. Electricity demand is increasing due to the electrification of transportation and heating systems, the expansion of data centers and digital technologies, rising industrial activity, and greater reliance on electricity in modern lifestyles. Grid-enhancing technologies address rising electricity demand by improving grid capacity, flexibility, efficiency, and reliability. For example, in March 2023, according to the World Economic Forum, a Switzerland-based international organization, renewable energy capacity is projected to account for 35% of global power generation by 2025, while electricity demand is expected to increase by around 3% annually over the following three years compared to 2022. The share of renewables in the global power generation mix is anticipated to rise from 29% to 35% by 2025. Therefore, rising electricity demand is contributing to the growth of the grid-enhancing technologies market.
Leading companies in the grid-enhancing technologies market are directing efforts toward developing sophisticated solutions, such as software-defined automation systems, to strengthen their competitive positioning. These systems rely on software-based control instead of fixed hardware configurations to manage, configure, and operate automated grid processes. For example, in February 2024, GE Vernova, a US-based energy technology company, launched GridBeats, a comprehensive portfolio of software-defined automation solutions designed to modernize and digitize grid operations. The platform allows utilities to increase visibility across substations and grid zones, remotely control devices, and autonomously operate different grid segments. By integrating AI and machine learning-driven automation with fast and dependable control systems, GridBeats enhances grid resilience, reliability, and overall performance. Furthermore, it supports renewable energy integration and addresses challenges associated with aging infrastructure.
In January 2025, Constellation Energy, a US-based provider of emissions-free power generation and energy services, acquired Calpine for $16.4 billion. With this acquisition, Constellation expanded its generation capacity and nationwide presence to meet rising electricity demand and diversify its energy portfolio. Calpine is a US-based company specializing in natural gas power generation and geothermal energy assets across the United States.
