Global Market for Holistic Asset Management Estimated to Grow to $19 Billion by 2031
Markets shift away from direct incentives, implementation of more stringent grid codes, and aging plants generate growing base of retrofit opportunities
A new report from Guidehouse Insights examines evolving market dynamics and underlying product
offerings for asset owners and operators throughout the energy sector.
The
coalescence of grid, energy, and digital transformations is leading to a
revaluation of traditional asset management strategies across the entire energy
value chain. Enterprise asset management systems (AMS), which largely act as
empty containers, lack the ability to support more advanced use cases around
predictive analytics, asset health monitoring, and maintenance optimization.
This led to the development of sophisticated asset performance management (APM)
technologies that allow utilities to use AMS data in new, cross-cutting ways to
deliver actionable insights around holistic asset lifecycle management. According
to a new report from Guidehouse Insights, the global market for asset
management software and services is projected to grow from $5.0 billion in 2021
to nearly $18.6 billion in 2030, at a CAGR of 15.6%.
“Holistic
asset management is one of the most complex elements of the utility business,
as many practices are plagued by rudimentary technologies and outdated
strategies,” says Michael Kelly, principal research analyst with Guidehouse
Insights. “For both electric utilities and renewable energy asset owners,
traditional emphases on procuring solutions at the lowest cost are giving way
to more forward-thinking motivations about revenue potential and risk reduction.”
Many first-generation renewable energy plants have left significant value on
the table due to the use of simplistic solutions acquired at the lowest cost.
These basic asset management strategies are now vulnerable as markets shift
away from direct incentives (i.e., ROI tied to performance), more stringent
grid codes are implemented, aging plants generate a growing base of retrofit
opportunities, and demand for portfolio-level monitoring and control (M&C)
increases, according to the report.
