Based on grid type, the AC segment is anticipated to cross more than USD 20.2 billion by 2032, owing to its compatibility with the existing electrical infrastructure and devices. Rising demand for grid solutions with potential for distributing power over long distances, and easy voltage regulation using transformers, allowing for efficient transmission over extended distances with minimal energy loss are complementing business growth. Furthermore, the AC grid has excellent reliability and performance in various environments, including harsh and remote locations making it a preferred choice for ensuring consistent and reliable power supply, thereby improving the grid adoption.
Based on power source, the solar PV segment is set to grow at a CAGR of over 21.4% through 2032, on account of its ability to generate electricity from a virtually limitless source making it a highly sustainable option for remote microgrids, ensuring a continuous power supply without depleting natural resources. Rising adoption of cost-effective renewable solutions for power generation offering easy installation and quick deployment in remote locations where traditional energy infrastructure may be challenging to establish is set to foster the product penetration.
Asia Pacific remote microgrid market is predicted to hit USD 19.4 billion by 2032. Rising demand for reliable electricity to remote and rural communities from many parts of Asia, especially in countries such as India, Indonesia, and the Philippines having little or no access to the national grid is set to bolster product demand. Growing launch of ambitious rural electrification programs and financial incentives, subsidies, and policy support for renewable energy projects will encourage product penetration.
Furthermore, the region holds a high risk of natural disasters, including typhoons, earthquakes, and floods which can disrupt centralized power infrastructure, creating demand for resilient energy solution that can continue to operate independently of the main grid, ensuring energy security during and after disasters.
In the U.S., increasing frequency and intensity of natural disasters, such as hurricanes, wildfires, and extreme weather events, have highlighted the vulnerability of the centralized grid, thereby boosting the product adoption. Increasing demand for continuous power supply solutions from military locations with the ability to operate independently from the national grid, ensuring mission-critical operations even in the event of a cyberattack or grid failure are set to drive the industry growth.
