South & Central America Smart Grid Market Analysis
The South and Central America Smart Grid Market is expected to register a CAGR of greater than 3% during the forecast period.
- Advanced Metering Structure devices are fundamental devices in the modernization of the grid network. With sound installation, AMS is expected to witness considerable growth in the forecast period.
- In January 2018, the Colombian Ministry of Mines and Energy established a target for advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) to be deployed by 2030 to cover 95% of consumer units in urban centers and 50% of rural units, equivalent to 11 million units. This is going to create vast market opportunities for market players.
- Brazil is the largest producer of electricity in the entire South, and Central America has the potential to be the largest market for the smart grid in the forecast period. With more than 500 TWh of electricity in 2018, Brazil is expected to drive the smart grid market in South America.
South & Central America Smart Grid Market Trends
Advanced Metering Infrastructure to Witness a Significant Growth
- Advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) or smart metering is an integrated system of smart meters, which are expected to be installed widely with the growth of renewable electricity in the region to more than 150 TWh in 2018.
- In Chile, according to the Energy Ministry, the installation of more than 6.5 million smart meters by 2025 is planned. By this, Chile is expected to increase its share in the smart grid significantly.
- In 2019, the Eletrobras Distribution Rehabilitation project initiated distributing AMI meters with telemetering capability to low voltage (LV) users on a large-scale. This resulted in benefitting four million consumers in six states of Brazil and increasing the AMI market significantly.
- In January 2018, the Colombian Ministry of Mines and Energy established a target for advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) to be deployed by 2030 to cover 95% of consumer units in urban centers and 50% of rural units, equivalent to 11 million units. This is going to create vast market opportunities for market players
- With multiple advantages of modifying grids, more countries of Central and South America are accepting the smart meters and smart grid technology, which is anticipated to grow further in the forecast period.
