ARC says Smart Grid Software Market to Grow 65% in Five Years

ARC预测智能电网软件市场在5年内将增长65％ 
 
August 5, 2010: The worldwide Smart Grid Operations Management software and services market will grow by greater than 65% over the next five years, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.1 percent. A new report published by ARC Advisory Group projects this substantial growth will result from a concurrent wave of new technology and worldwide infrastructure spending driven by sovereign investment programs. These sovereign investment programs are heavily focused on technology to improve grid reliability, efficiency, and information management capabilities. Smart grid operations management software is a critical element in the development of more efficient and reliable electric grids.

8月5日消息——未来5年，全球智能电网的运行管理软件和服务市场将获得超过65％的增长，即年复合增长率（CAGR）为11.1%。ARC顾问集团公布的一份最新报告表明，新兴技术以及政府投资计划带动全球基础设施开支的两大浪潮是该市场持续增长的因素。这些政府投资项目均集中在提升电网的可靠性、效率、信息管理能力的技术革新。在发展更可靠、更高效电网的过程中，智能电网运营管理软件是一个非常关键的因素。

The United States, China, and India are the countries currently allocating the greatest amount of public capital to grid expansion and improvement initiatives. “The concurrent deployment of the $8 billion in U.S. smart grid investment, $180 billion in Chinese grid investment, and $10 billion for the Indian R-APDRP program is serving as the catalyst for exceptional growth in this technology-driven market,” according to Clint Reiser, Enterprise Software Analyst, and the principal author of ARC’s “Smart Grid Operations Management Software & Services Worldwide Outlook.” The growth is also being supported by expansion projects in emerging markets such as the Middle East and Latin America.

目前，美国、中国和印度是在电网扩建和升级项目中投入公共资金数额最大的国家。ARC企业软件领域的分析师Clint Reiser在其主笔的《智能电网运营管理软件和服务全球市场研究报告》中指出：“美国政府投资80亿美元于智能电网、中国投入1800亿美元用于电网建设、印度投入100亿美元用于其R-APDRP项目是这一技术驱动型市场取得异常增长的催化剂。”中东和拉美等新兴市场也有越来越多的扩建项目，这必然促进智能电网市场的发展。

U.S. Government Stimulus
美国政府的刺激方案

In 2009, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act allotted $4.5 billion to modernize the electric grid, enhance security of U.S. energy infrastructure, and ensure reliable electricity delivery to meet growing demand. Smart grid management software vendors have already begun experiencing increased interest in their solutions. Although these software vendors anticipate growth to occur in transmission and substation automation technology, they anticipate the greatest growth to occur from spending on distribution technology to enhance network control, efficiency, reliability, and power quality. In particular, vendors have noted that utilities have shown interest in new distribution management system and outage management system applications.

2009年，美国恢复和再投资法案拨出45亿美元用于智能电网的现代化改造，增强美国能源基建设施的安全性，确保满足经济增长所需要的电力供应。智能电网管理软件供应商也开始感觉到他们的解决方案受到越来越多的关注。尽管这些软件供应商预期的增长出现在传输及变电站自动化技术上，但他们预计最大的增长来自于对增强网络控制、效率、可靠性、发电质量的配电技术投资上。特别地，供应商已经注意到了公用事业机关对新型配电管理系统和停电管理系统的应用表现出的浓厚兴趣。

China’s ongoing Grid Expansion and Modernization
中国正在推进电网扩建和现代化改造

China is in the midst of a large-scale, nationwide grid extension and modernization project. What began as an effort to supply electricity to the majority of the country’s population has gradually shifted focus toward grid modernization and efficiency. ARC believes that smart grid operations management software and other intelligent grid elements will account for an increasing percentage of total spending as this shift in focus toward grid modernization continues. Chinese Government and industry leaders have stated that a “unified strong and smart grid” system is going to be built across the country by 2020. Larger scale smart grid construction is expected to be included in China’s five year development plan beginning in 2011. A number of foreign technology and service providers have already established a presence in China in anticipation of the country’s smart grid growth opportunities.

中国政府正在全国范围内实施大规模的电网扩建和现代化改造项目。电网建设的重点从起初的满足国内大部分人口的电力供应逐渐转变为电网的现代化和效率。ARC认为，随着对电网现代化的持续关注，智能电网运营管理软件和其他智能电网元器件占总投资的比重将逐渐增大。中国政府和行业领导企业已公布了“统一坚强智能电网”计划到2020年全面建成。大规模的智能电网建设预计将被归纳入起始于2011年的中国下一个五年发展规划，而众多国外技术和服务供应商早已布局中国市场，期待分享中国的智能电网发展机遇。
