Building-To-Grid Technology Global Market Report 2025
Building-to-grid (B2G) technology encompasses systems that facilitate communication and interaction between buildings and the power grid, allowing for the exchange of energy and information. This technology integrates energy generation, storage, and consumption within buildings to align with the grid's demand and supply. Buildings equipped with renewable energy sources, such as solar panels or energy storage systems, can feed excess energy back to the grid during peak demand periods.
The primary types of technologies involved in building-to-grid technology include smart sensing, smart metering, control technology, energy storage, and other related components. Smart sensing utilizes advanced sensors and technologies to monitor and collect real-time data on various parameters, which enables more informed decision-making and efficient system management. These technologies comprise both hardware and software components and are applied across commercial, residential, and industrial sectors.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The sharp rise in U.S. tariffs and the ensuing trade tensions in spring 2025 are having a notable impact on the utilities sector, particularly across power generation, grid modernization, and renewable energy initiatives. Increased duties on imported equipment such as turbines, transformers, solar panels, and battery storage systems are driving up both capital and operational expenses for utility companies, prompting many to delay projects or pass higher costs on to consumers through increased energy rates. The water and waste management sectors are similarly affected, as tariffs inflate the cost of essential machinery, piping, and treatment technologies. Moreover, retaliatory tariffs from key trading partners have disrupted the supply of critical raw materials-such as rare earth elements vital for clean energy technologies-posing further challenges to the shift toward sustainable energy. In response, the sector is increasingly focusing on domestic procurement, digital transformation, and efficiency-enhancing innovations to control rising costs while safeguarding energy reliability and meeting regulatory demands.
The building-to-grid technology market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides building-to-grid technology market statistics, including building-to-grid technology industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with a building-to-grid technology market share, detailed building-to-grid technology market segments, market trends and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the building-to-grid technology industry. This building-to-grid technology market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The building-to-grid technology market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $57.34 billion in 2024 to $63.06 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.0%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing energy demand, rising renewable energy adoption, growing grid reliability issues, increasing urbanization trends, and growing energy independence goals.
The building-to-grid technology market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $93.84 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to advancements in energy storage, rising smart grid development, increasing climate change initiatives, growing building energy efficiency, and rising electric vehicle adoption. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing development of building-integrated photovoltaics, rising integration of renewable energy sources in buildings, growing evolution of smart building technologies, increasing vehicle-to-grid (V2G) applications, and rising emphasis on energy resilience and reliability.
The forecast of 10.4% growth over the next five years reflects a slight reduction of 0.2% from the previous projectiont. This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. Tariff disruptions affecting advanced grid-interface controllers and inverters imported from Asian suppliers could slow the rollout of building-to-grid solutions across U.S. commercial infrastructure. The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.
The rising demand for electricity is expected to significantly drive the growth of the building-to-grid technology market in the coming years. This increase in electricity demand is attributed to factors such as urbanization, technological advancements, and the growing reliance on electric devices and renewable energy systems. Building-to-grid technology enhances electricity utilization by enabling buildings to feed excess energy back to the grid and adjust to fluctuations in grid demand. For instance, the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, a UK governmental department, reported in June 2024 that electricity demand rose by 1.2% in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023, reaching 86 terawatt-hours (TWh). As a result, the growing electricity demand is a key driver for the advancement of the building-to-grid technology market.
Leading companies in the building-to-grid technology sector are concentrating on the development of advanced analytics solutions to improve energy efficiency and facilitate better grid interaction. Advanced analytics solutions involve the application of sophisticated data analysis tools aimed at optimizing energy management and enhancing the relationship between buildings and the grid. A notable example is CPower, a US-based electric utility company, which launched the Building Management System as a Service (BMS-aaS) in New York City in April 2022. This innovative solution provides commercial property owners and managers with an intelligent building management system at no upfront cost, enabling them to optimize energy usage, reduce carbon emissions, and offer demand flexibility to the grid. The BMS-aaS promotes dynamic interactions between buildings and the grid, thereby enhancing demand response capabilities and energy management.
In August 2024, Infogrid, a UK-based AI technology firm, acquired Buildings IOT for an undisclosed sum. This acquisition is poised to enhance Infogrid's capacity to implement autonomous building efficiency measures, leading to substantial energy, carbon, and cost savings. It also marks a significant transition for the company from analytics to comprehensive building automation. Buildings IOT, based in the US, specializes in providing grid technology for adaptive buildings.
