Smart Energy Communities
Smart Energy Technologies for Smart Cities and Communities: Global Market Analysis and Forecasts, 2023-2032
While still a developing market space, smart energy communities (SECs) are emerging at a time when there is growing demand and a growing pool of resources for their deployment. The past 3 years have brought a series of shocks to cities, including the pandemic and geopolitical conflict, that have highlighted many social and economic vulnerabilities. SECs offer a more modular, more resilient, and cleaner approach to how residents interact with the energy infrastructure around them. Active SECs have proven their success at improving the quality of energy for vulnerable communities.
Reducing costs and improving energy stability, especially for isolated or otherwise vulnerable communities, continue to be the largest drivers of SEC adoption. Governments and communities are also using opportunities presented by EV adoption, like vehicle-to-grid services, to improve SEC performance and sustainability. Financially supporting these drivers are large infrastructure and climate investment packages that have been passed by numerous governments. However, SECs also face barriers related to regulatory structures, complexity, lack of standardization, and public engagement.
This Guidehouse Insights report analyzes the global market for SECs, exploring market issues, emerging trends, drivers, and barriers for SEC deployments. Smart energy for smart cities market forecasts are included for all world regions through 2032 and are broken out by advanced energy and smart grid technology segments.
