The global energy cloud market size was USD 6639.5 million in 2021 and market is projected to touch USD 24302.3 million by 2031, at a CAGR of 13.8% during the forecast period.
The COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with energy cloud experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.
An energy cloud typically refers to a concept in the field of energy management and distribution, where energy resources, such as electricity, are intelligently managed and distributed using advanced technologies and infrastructure. It involves the integration of renewable energy sources, energy storage systems, and smart grid technologies to create a more efficient, reliable, and sustainable energy system.
Energy clouds prioritize the use of renewable energy sources like solar, wind, hydro, and geothermal power. These sources are typically decentralized, allowing for the generation of clean energy closer to the point of consumption. An energy cloud relies on a smart grid infrastructure, which uses advanced communication and control systems to monitor, manage, and optimize the flow of electricity. Smart grids enable real-time monitoring of energy consumption, facilitate demand response programs, and enhance grid reliability and resilience.
COVID-19 IMPACT: Energy Conservation to Boost Demand Significantly
COVID-19 had a life changing impact globally. The energy cloud market was significantly affected. The virus had various impacts on different markets. Lockdowns were imposed in several nations. This erratic pandemic caused disruptions on all sorts of businesses. Restrictions tightened during the pandemic due to increasing number of cases. Numerous Industries were affected. However, the market for energy cloud experienced an increased demand.
The pandemic highlighted the importance of resilient and sustainable energy sources. It accelerated the transition towards renewable energy as governments and stakeholders recognized the need for cleaner and more reliable energy systems. The energy cloud concept, with its emphasis on renewable energy integration, gained further momentum as a means to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and promote a more sustainable energy future.
The pandemic-induced economic slowdown and the emphasis on cost-saving measures led to increased focus on energy efficiency and conservation. Energy cloud solutions, such as smart grid technologies and energy management systems, gained prominence as tools to optimize energy consumption, reduce waste, and cut costs for both consumers and providers. The market is anticipated to boost the energy cloud market share following the pandemic.
LATEST TRENDS
"Virtual Power Plant to Broaden Market Growth"
VPPs are emerging as a key component of the energy cloud infrastructure. These virtual power plants integrate and coordinate various distributed energy resources (DERs), such as solar panels, wind turbines, energy storage systems, and demand response programs. By aggregating and managing these resources, VPPs enable enhanced grid flexibility, demand balancing, and effective utilization of renewable energy sources.
Microgrids, which are localized energy systems with their own generation and distribution capabilities, are being integrated into the energy cloud architecture. Microgrids offer greater resilience and reliability, especially during power outages or when disconnected from the main grid. Islanding capability allows microgrids to operate autonomously and maintain a stable energy supply within a specific area. These latest developments are anticipated to boost the energy cloud market share.
