Distribution Automation Market by Component (Field Devices, Services, Software), Communication Technology (Wired, Wireless), Utility - Global Forecast 2024-2030


The Distribution Automation Market size was estimated at USD 20.62 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 23.99 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 16.90% to reach USD 61.55 billion by 2030.

Distribution automation is an integrated solution of field apparatus, devices, communications, and software applications designed to optimize power grid efficiency and reliability. Distribution automation consists of technologies, including sensors, processors, information and communication grids, and switches, through which a utility can organize, automate, analyze, and optimize data to enhance the operating efficiency of its distribution power system. Distribution automation improved several key distribution system processes' speed, cost, and accuracy, including fault detection, feeder switching, and outage management. The rising demand for grid reliability and increasing investment by government and private organizations for upgrading grid infrastructure drive the need for this technology. In addition, the high demand for security, energy efficiency in supply networks, and immediate fault detection are expected to advance the market growth. Higher installation and maintenance costs and a lack of standards and technical functionality impede market adoption. However, integrating smart advanced communication technologies and smart city initiatives by governments in emerging economies is expected to create a market opportunity.
