Distribution Automation Market Report and Forecast 2025-2034
Description
The global distribution automation market attained a value of nearly USD 13.60 Billion in 2024. The market is further expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.50% during the forecast period of 2025-2034 to reach a value of USD 28.03 Billion by 2034.
Key Trends in the Market
Distribution automation refers to the automation of power distribution systems and includes several technologies and devices such as sensors, processors, and advanced communication networks, among others, which are used to optimise the power distribution systems. A system of collecting, monitoring, and analysing data, distribution automation aids in enhancing the efficiency of power supply and power distribution.
The EMR’s report titled “Distribution Automation Market Report and Forecast 2025-2034 offers a detailed analysis of the market based on the following segments:
Market Breakup by Component
The software segment, based on component, holds a significant share in the distribution automation market as cloud-based software improves collaboration, facilitates easy back-up and restoration of data, and operates at minimal costs. In addition, this type of software bridges the gap between utilities and power distribution enabling deployment of technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and Internet of Things (IoT). Over the forecast period, the anticipated increase in demand for fault location isolation and service restoration (FLISR) software, Volt/VAR management software, and smart sensor software, among other software, are expected to fuel the growth of this segment.
Global Distribution Automation Market Share by Type of Utility
Public utilities account for a leading share in electricity distribution systems, due to which the demand for distribution automation in public type of utilities is expected to witness steady growth in the coming years. The increasing demand for electricity across the end use sectors including commercial, industrial, and residential, is bolstering the global market for distribution automation. However, private utility segment is expected to witness a strong growth in the coming years due to the rising privatisation of utilities in various regions.
