Newton-Evans Research Company is currently in the survey design phase as we update our biennial world market study of substation automation and modernization. As usual, the results of this survey will be published in a 4-volume report series titled, “The Worldwide Market for Substation Automation and Integration Programs in Electric Utilities: 2014-2016” which will be available near January 15 of next year.
The report series will forecast spending on many aspects of substation automation and construction, and it will also track technology trends in substation communications, security, computing platforms, protocols, router requirements, and other topics. The report will also discuss challenges utilities face with regard to updating and modernizing substations, their approaches to equipment purchasing and installation, need/lack of need for third party services, and more.
With a typical world market potential in the tens of billions of dollars, substation automation is a key piece of the Smart Grid modernization picture. Insights from this study will help both utilities and electric power equipment manufacturers alike plan for the future.
See our brochure for a complete list of topics that have been covered in previous studies of the Substation Automation market.
