Virtual Power Plant Market Introduction and Overview
According to SPER Market Research, the Global Virtual Power Plant Market is estimated to reach USD 12.84 billion by 2033 with a CAGR of 23.61%.
The report includes an in-depth analysis of the Global Virtual Power Plant Market, including market size and trends, product mix, distribution channels, and supplier analysis. A virtual power plant is a collection of decentralized power systems designed to integrate various dispersed energy sources such as solar PV cells, wind turbines, and hydroelectric facilities. Furthermore, virtual power plants provide efficient power generation even during high load periods, with the option to trade or sell power in the trading market. A virtual power plant is a medium-scale power generation unit that integrates several renewable energy sources like solar, wind, and other flexible power consumers, as well as storage devices.
- 2023: In Carwarp, AGL Energy Ltd. and RayGen inaugurated the largest next-generation long-duration energy storage facility in the world. This facility will increase the capacity and flexibility of the nearby electrical system in addition to providing synchronous power.
- 2022: Autogrid Systems Inc. collaborated with Mysa to create utility-scale virtual power plants that use smart thermostat technology for grid modernization.
Market Opportunities and Challenges
Opportunities:
- Growing adoption of smart grids- The rising deployment of smart grids opens up new potential for the virtual power plant business by allowing for the integration and optimization of distributed energy resources (DERs). Smart grids are defined as the combination of power, communications, and information technology to improve the electric power infrastructure that serves loads while also allowing for the integration of distributed energy resources. DERs enable more modular, scalable, and flexible energy generation, and the smart grid facilitates their smooth integration at the transmission and distribution levels.
Challenges:
- Integration of various hardware and software components in VPP- The combination of various hardware and software components in VPPs presents a complicated set of technological hurdles. VPPs combine a variety of DERs, such as solar panels, wind turbines, and energy storage systems, which are often from different manufacturers and use separate communication protocols. It is difficult to coordinate these pieces such that they all operate together efficiently.
Market Competitive Landscape
Key market participants are investing in research to improve their VPP technology. This includes upgrading the software that manages distributed energy resources (DERs), improving grid integration capabilities, and applying AI and ML to optimize energy generation and delivery. They are also attempting to make their solutions more scalable by creating systems that can readily incorporate new DERs, such as solar panels, wind turbines, battery storage, or demand response resources. The major players in the market are ABB LTD., AGL ENERGY LIMITED, AUTOGRID SYSTEMS, INC., ENBALA POWER NETWORKS, Enel x, INC., General Electric Company, Limejump Energy Ltd., SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC SE, SIEMENS AG and SUNVERGE ENERGY INC.
