Top Impacting Factors
Increase in energy demand
Constant increase in energy consumption, owing to rapid urbanization and increase in population has led to a massive increase in energy demand. This has generated a need for new solutions and specific processes that are capable of increasing production from same resources. As investments in smart grids increase, asset and energy management solutions extract more value from system and efficiently handle growing demand. Hence, increase in energy demand drives adoption of asset management in energy and utilities sectors. For instance, according to the International Energy Agency, during 2022–2024, there will be growth of 2.7% for electricity worldwide.
Adoption of advanced technologies such as IoT
IoT, with its web of interconnected devices, is revolutionizing the way public engages, lives, and works. From wearables and inventory managements and connected machines, IoT can provide tangible benefits everywhere. IoT can help to automate and streamline tedious, repetitive tasks such as delegation, scheduling, and reporting. Utility companies spend a great deal of time, money, and effort on regular inspections to prevent errors and failures.
However, if the utility asset is IoT enabled, most of these inspections can be avoided and information can be reported on the condition of the asset prior to shut down. Hence, IoT can save a lot of maintenance costs that are currently spent on regular inspections and outdated infrastructure. Thus, IoT is gaining high traction across the utility sector, which is expected to offer remunerative opportunities for expansion of the utility asset management market.
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has hit many industries, and utility asset management is no exception. Electricity demand is down, owing to complete closure of large trading houses, processing plants, and manufacturing industries. This has led to slight downfall in the utility asset management industry during COVID-19. For instance, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), power sales in the commercial sector dropped by 4.7% in 2020 as many businesses remained shut, owing to COVID-19. However, the market is expected to grow rapidly after the pandemic, owing to rise in adoption of remote working and automation of process in the utility sector across the globe.
