Microgrid Controller Global Market Report 2024

The microgrid controller market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $5.88 billion in 2023 to $6.88 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.0%. The expansion observed in the historical period can be attributed to factors such as regulatory support and funding, the initiation of pioneering projects and pilot programs, rural electrification initiatives, early adoption in research and universities, and efforts related to grid modernization.

The microgrid controller market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $12.47 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.0%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to factors such as the rising demand for decentralized energy solutions, increasing deployments of energy storage systems, a focus on energy efficiency measures, the emergence of smart cities and communities, and the rise of Microgrid-as-a-Service (MaaS) models. Major trends expected in the forecast period include the integration of renewable energy sources, enhanced grid resilience and reliability, efficient management of energy storage systems, applications in remote and off-grid areas, and the integration of smart grid technologies.

The future growth of the microgrid controller market is anticipated to be driven by increasing investments from various governments in microgrid projects. A microgrid controller is a system responsible for managing and deciding when to connect or disconnect from the grid. The surge in government investments enhances the demand for microgrid controllers. For instance, in October 2021, the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) initiated the $50 million Regional Australia Microgrid Pilots Program (RAMPP) grants, aiming to enhance energy supply resilience and reliability in rural areas. Hence, the escalating government investments in microgrid projects propel the growth of the microgrid controller market.

The growth of the microgrid controller market is expected to be fueled by the rising environmental awareness. Environmental awareness emphasizes the importance of preserving and respecting the natural environment, understanding the impact of human activities on the environment, and advocating for environmental protection. Microgrid controllers offer benefits such as reduced energy production costs and lower environmental impacts, contributing to their market expansion. As per a study by the Pew Research Center, conducted in January 2022 among 10,237 US adults, 69% prefer developing alternative energy sources such as wind and solar, while a similar proportion (69%) supports the United States adopting measures to become carbon neutral by 2050. Consequently, the growing environmental awareness is a driving force behind the expansion of the microgrid controller market.

An emerging trend in the microgrid controller market is the introduction of innovative products. Leading companies in the market are concentrating on delivering inventive solutions to strengthen their market position. For instance, in February 2022, Schneider Electric SE, a France-based company specializing in microgrid controllers, unveiled the EcoStruxure microgrid solution for small and medium buildings in Canada. This all-in-one system facilitates simple integration of distributed energy resources across various facilities, including commercial and industrial buildings, healthcare facilities, and educational institutions. The solution aims to provide organizations with enhanced energy resilience, reduced energy costs, and a lower carbon footprint through features such as grid connection management, off-grid mode preparation, and demand charge reduction.

Prominent companies in the microgrid controller market are actively developing advanced microgrid solutions. Microgrids are self-contained energy systems that can operate independently or in conjunction with the main power grid. In October 2023, Vertiv, a US-based critical digital infrastructure provider, launched a 1-MW microgrid to support its new customer experience center. The distinctive features of this microgrid include a 1-MW AC solar array, a 400-kW hydrogen fuel cell, a 1-MW lithium-ion battery energy storage system, and a microgrid controller. The 1-MW microgrid is designed to showcase how data centers can address concerns related to electrical grid capacity and availability.

In December 2021, Yokogawa Electric Corporation, a Japan-based electrical engineering and software company, acquired PXiSE Energy Solutions LLC, a US-based software developer for utilities and grid operators, for an undisclosed amount. Through this acquisition, Yokogawa aims to enhance its capabilities in monitoring and managing power generation facilities, assisting customers in the power transmission and distribution sectors to achieve their clean energy targets.
