United Arab Emirates Smart Grid Market Outlook
The United Arab Emirates smart grid market size was valued at USD XX Billion in 2022 and is likely reach to USD XX Billion by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 2.5% during the forecast period, 2023-2031. The growth of the market is attributed to rise in concerns pertaining to environment protection.
Smart grid is an electricity network for automation, communication, and IT systems, which are mainly used to improve the connectivity of the various components of the power network.
The smart grid has six components, namely advanced metering infrastructure, demand response, electric vehicles, wide-area situational awareness, distributed energy resources and storage, and distribution grid management.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the demand for smart systems increased to reduce the human intervention. However, the supply chain disruption due to the restriction in manufacturing facilities impeded the market growth.
On the other hand, the recovery of the market due to opening of manufacturing industries, positively stimulated the market growth.
