Distributed Energy Resources (DER) Technology Market, By Technology (Solar PV, Wind, Energy Storage, Combined Heat & Power, and Others), By Software (Analytics, Management & Control, and Virtual Power Plants), By End-user (Government & Municipalities, Industrial, Commercial, Residential, and Military), and By Region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa) - Trends, Analysis, and Forecast till 2034

Distributed Energy Resources (DER) Technology Market accounted for US$ 52.1 billion in 2019 and is estimated to be US$ 165.2 billion by 2029 and is anticipated to register a CAGR of 12.4%.

Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) are electricity production components (less than 10 MW). Distributed energy resources technologies contains distributed generation (DG) and distributed power (DP). Distributed energy resources systems are modular, decentralized, & more flexible technologies that are situated within the electric distribution system at or close to the end user. Distributed generation technologies induces biomass, small hydro, biogas, wind power, solar power, waste-to-energy, fuel cells and geothermal power. Distributed power is a technology that generates or stores power (e.g. flywheels and batteries). Distributed energy resource management system incorporates and manages the vast distributed energy resources in a grid. 

In past decades, energy regulation and advances in technology have compelled a substantial growth in the distributed energy resources. The industrial and residential customers are shifting from centralized to de-centralized power generation, thus are boosting the global distribution energy resource technology market. The DERs are affecting the grid reliability and performance, henceforth proceeding the scope of distributed energy resource technology.

Along with increasing the reliability of the distributed energy resource management system it also maintains power quality, reduces the overall cost, decreases losses and ensures safe operation of the grid. Further, with the dropping renewable energy prices, growing environmental concern and favorable government policy are propelling the distribute energy resources technology hence fueling the distributed energy resource technology market.

However, the high initial investment is the major factor hampering the adoption of distributed energy resource technology among the consumer, therefore limiting the target market growth. Additionally, regulatory issues associated with the DERs could be a hamper the distributed energy resource technology market.

The residential sector is projected to have a high growth rate during the forecasted period due to the reduced cost of DERs such as solar PV and battery storage. The rising number of distributed energy resources is projected to create significant challenges in the grid, distributed energy resource technology is estimated to be the perfect solution for managing these resources. Manufacturers are investing highly on research and development of sophisticated distributed energy resource technology to control and manage the rising number of distributed energy resources.
