Abstract
This Report is a Definitive Guide to Assessing the Future of this Fast Growing
Business. Within its 89 pages and over 10 charts and tables, the report
delivers key information to industry executives and investors;
The technology is already in place for both Smart Grid and Smart Buildings to
benefit from interfacing and integration. It will not require vast sums of
money to bring it about; we estimate approx. 1% of the total Smart Grid
investment budget. The likely slowing down of the development of Smart Grid,
due to the present poor economic conditions, could serve to enhance the
prospects of this business.
We estimate that in the US, 80,000 sites in the commercial sector offer a high
propensity for Smart Building to Smart Grid interfacing. The world population
will be over 250,000 buildings.
In many developed countries Industrial and Commercial Buildings consume 40% of
all generated electrical power. Interfacing with this building stock provides
large scale opportunities to balance supply and demand particularly as Smart
Buildings are already fitted with fully automatic DDC controls.
The size of the world market for Building Energy Management Systems (BEMS);
DDC controls that monitor and control environmental plant in commercial and
industrial buildings, was $13.39 billion in 2011.
Current global spend on interface products for Smart Buildings is not likely
to be exceeding $100 million. We estimate that the average annual aggregated
spend on both the Smart Grid side and Smart Building side for interface
software will be approximately $1 billion in 2016 and demand will peak in 2020
at $2.2 billion.
Sales to the Retrofit Market will account for 65% of this business during the
next 5 years. Of this 40% will pass through Specialist IT Integrators. Energy
Service Management Companies will take 40% and the balance of 20% will be
direct business between the buyer and software supplier.
Conserving energy through distributed generation coupled with efficient
balancing of supply and demand in the Smart building is the most cost
effective solution. This must be one of the most attractive businesses to be
a part of today for it benefits society, delivers an attractive Return on
Investment and has excellent future growth potential.
For only USD $999 this report provides valuable information into how the
interfacing and integration of Smart Buildings with Smart Grid will open up
major benefits for both the building owners and utility companies.
