The transmission and distribution segment is expected to hold the largest share of the digital utility market, by network, during
the forecast period.
The transmission and distribution subsegment of the network segment led the digital utility market in 2016 and is projected to dominate
the market during the forecast period. However, the retail segment is expected to grow at the fastest rate during the forecast period.
The growth of the transmission and distribution segment is primarily driven by aging infrastructure in the power utilities industry. New
digital devices and communications and control systems improve the efficiency of assets and increase the ability of operators to monitor
and manage electric transmission and distribution systems. This would ultimately create new revenue pockets for the digital utility market
during the forecast period.
The hardware subsegment is expected to hold the largest share of the digital utility market, by technology, during the forecast
period.
The hardware subsegment of the technology segment led the digital utility market in 2016 and is projected to dominate the market during
the forecast period. However, the integrated solutions segment is expected to grow at the fastest rate during the forecast period.
The hardware segment includes all the tangible aspects of the digital utility market. It covers equipment, from smart meters to smart
transformers and all the products of a digital substation. It also encompasses all the components that make conventional equipment
smart, such as sensors, smart thermostats, and programmable logic controllers, among others. Hardware generally costs more than other
digital solutions and services and, hence, the segment accounts for a larger share of the market.
