The U.S. distributed energy resource management system market size was worth USD 112.67 million in 2022 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 18.69% during the forecast period.


A distributed energy resource management system (DERMS) is the amalgamation of hardware and software that enables real-time communication and control across the solar panels, batteries, and other edge devices that usually lie behind-the-meter and outside grid operators' direct control. The U.S. has witnessed a significant rise in the demand for (DERMS) distributed energy resource management systems. These systems enable energy management and optimization at the consumer level, enabling businesses and individuals to capitalize on their self-consumption and reduce energy costs. The global shift toward more sustainable energy solutions has further bolstered the market’s growth to its full potential.


Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, numerous device manufacturing companies across various regions had to shut down their manufacturing facilities and services as countries implemented full or partial lockdown strategies to manage the situation. Consequently, the demand for electricity significantly decreased, while residential electricity usage saw an increase. However, the decline in business activities severely impacted the distributed energy resource management system.


LATEST TRENDS


Increased Demand for Response Management Software to Provide Growth Opportunities


The increasing need for utilities to keep their grid reliable and safe is driving the demand for distributed energy resource management systems. The increasing demand for response management software and systems is growing due to its ability to provide intelligence, economics, operations, and markets in one modular resolution that allows grid operators to connect, control, see, and optimize DERs from a technical and economic standpoint, whereas helping utilities provide reliable, clean, and affordable energy to their customers.


DRIVING FACTORS


Increase in Adoption of Distributed Energy Resources (DER) to Propel Market Growth


The surge in the adoption of distributed energy resources (DERs) such as rooftop solar panels, photovoltaic units, reciprocating engines, biomass generators, batteries in electric vehicles, and wind-generating units is driving the demand for U.S. distributed energy resource management system market growth. These systems allow effective management and integration of decentralized energy resources, resulting in improved grid stability and efficiency.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


Cyber Security Risks Associated with Internet to Hamper Market Growth


The distributed energy resource management system utilizes the internet, information and communication technology (ICT), energy storage systems, and demand management. These systems heavily rely on digital communication and control, rendering them vulnerable to an increasing risk of cyber-attacks. The threat of cyber-based attacks targeting the energy sector, particularly the electric power grid, is escalating in terms of frequency and complexity. A significant cyber incident within the power generation system could have severe consequences on grid operations, leading to market disruptions, large-scale blackouts, equipment damage, and socioeconomic impacts, consequently affecting the market.


SEGMENTATION


By Software Analysis


Based on software, the market is segmented into virtual power plant (VPP), management & control, and analytics.


The virtual power plant market segment held the largest share in 2022 owing to the ability to move power production between other DERs, providing guaranteed power delivery.



  • Virtual Power Plants (VPPs), which consist of networks of decentralized power generating units, storage systems, and flexible demand, can significantly enhance the integration of distributed power resources by leveraging advanced data analytics methods such as machine learning. Consequently, Virtual Power Plants are progressively challenging the dominance of traditional large-scale centralized electricity generation.


By Application Analysis


Based on application, the market is segmented into solar, energy storage, wind, EV charging stations, and others.


The solar segment held the largest share in 2022. This was due to the various benefits offered by DERs to both providers and consumers.



  • DERs primarily rely on innovative technologies to harness solar energy, encompassing accumulated DERs in the form of microgrids, VPPs, and DRs. DERs play a pivotal role in the transition to renewable energy. Consumers utilizing DER units might reduce their electricity costs, while power system owners and the public could benefit from avoiding the necessity of new transmission infrastructure. Additionally, distribution utilities and system operators can enjoy increased flexibility in grid management.


By End-user Analysis


Based on end-user, the market is segmented into residential, commercial, and industrial & utilities.


The industrial & utilities segment held the largest share in 2022 owing to its advantages, such as lower permitting requirements, requiring less land, and minimal infrastructure involvement.



  • Utilities are driving a period of transformational change. The universal adoption of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) is driving the power network infrastructure. DERs is a quickly growing sector in the energy industry that refers to a distributed generation of electricity using clean and renewable sources. It can be either grid-connected or off-grid and is frequently used in remote areas where it is difficult to extend the electrical system grid.


KEY INDUSTRY PLAYERS


Key players operating in the market are focusing on developing virtual power plants to meet the increasing needs of the renewable energy industry, enhancing the sustainability of energy management.


Additionally, other industry players cater to diverse project requirements, emphasizing the introduction of new technological advancements in distributed energy generation. For instance, in May 2022, Oracle affiliated with POWER Engineers to assist utilities in implementing and integrating more dependable and ground-breaking grid modernization resolutions. As part of this conglomerate, Oracle presented a wide range of appropriate utilities: Network Management System (NMS), Advanced Distribution Management System (ADMS) solutions, DERMS, and Outage Management System (OMS) solutions.
