Microgrid-as-a-Service Global Market Report 2024

The microgrid-as-a-service market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $2.12 billion in 2023 to $2.46 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.0%. The expansion during the historical period can be attributed to increasing energy demand, concerns about grid reliability, a rising focus on renewable energy, government initiatives and incentives, and a growing need for energy resiliency.

The microgrid-as-a-service market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.19 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.2%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to the transition to smart grids, a rising demand for distributed energy resources, increasing adoption of electric vehicles, a focus on sustainability and carbon reduction, and growth in the industrial and commercial sectors. Key trends expected in the forecast period include the integration of artificial intelligence in microgrid management, the rise of energy-as-a-service models, the development of blockchain in energy transactions, the emergence of community microgrids, and increased use of microgrids in critical infrastructure resilience planning.

The anticipated surge in electricity consumption is set to drive the growth of the microgrid-as-a-service market in the foreseeable future. Electricity, defined as an electrical current used for heating, lighting, and powering machinery, is experiencing an uptick in consumption. This surge is fueling the expansion of microgrid-as-a-service, offering benefits such as reduced long-term energy expenditures, cost-free upgrades to essential energy infrastructure, and enhanced energy reliability. As reported by the Energy Information Administration in April 2023, overall electricity end-use utilization in the United States for 2022 was approximately 2.6% higher than in the previous year. Additionally, industrial sector retail electricity sales in 2022 increased by around 0.7% compared to 2021. Thus, the increased electricity consumption is a key factor driving the microgrid-as-a-service market.

The growing emphasis on integrating renewable energy sources is expected to further boost the microgrid-as-a-service market. Renewable energy integration involves incorporating sources such as wind and solar into existing energy systems to meet power demands sustainably. Microgrid-as-a-Service provides a practical approach to integrating renewable energy, enhancing grid resilience, optimizing energy management, and making clean energy more accessible and cost-effective. According to the Energy Information Administration, the forecast for 2023 anticipates that 16% of total energy generation will come from renewable sources, up from 14% in 2022. This increasing focus on renewable energy integration is a significant driver of the microgrid-as-a-service market.

A noteworthy trend in the microgrid-as-a-service market is the adoption of technological advancements. Major companies in this market are concentrating on innovative product development to strengthen their market share. For instance, in January 2021, Schneider Electric SE, a France-based company specializing in microgrid-as-a-service solutions, launched the EcoStruxure Microgrid Solution. This comprehensive solution facilitates the integration of distributed energy resources (DERs) across various facilities, providing increased energy resiliency, reduced utility bills, and a lower environmental impact. It addresses the complexities of the evolving grid due to the surge in DERs, offering features such as grid connection control, off-grid mode preparation, and demand fee reduction.

Companies in the microgrid-as-a-service market are also focusing on developing resiliency services to enhance profitability. Microgrid-based resiliency services leverage microgrids to improve the resilience and reliability of electrical power supply. In April 2023, Xcel Energy Inc., a US-based electric utility company, introduced Empower Resiliency in Minnesota, expanding upon its 2021 launch in Wisconsin. This program aims to provide customers with elevated service reliability, exceeding standard benchmarks. Xcel will manage the ownership, installation, operation, and maintenance of microgrid assets, including battery storage, renewable energy sources, and backup generators, meeting resilience needs in Minnesota.

In December 2021, Yokogawa Electric Corporation, a Japan-based company specializing in microgrid control and monitoring, acquired PXiSE Energy Solutions LLC, a US-based firm offering microgrid control services. This strategic acquisition will enhance Yokogawa Electric Corporation's capabilities in monitoring and controlling power-producing facilities, aiding clients in the electricity transmission and transportation sectors in achieving their clean energy goals.
