Self-Healing Grid Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Component (Hardware, Software & Services), By Application (Transmission Lines, Distribution lines), By End-User (Public Utility, Private Utility) and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

Self-healing grids are the type of grid in which the grid can automatically separate the malfunctioning or faulty section from the rest of the grid. Self-healing grids have automated controls, sensors and advanced software. They also have real-time communication technologies and digital components to monitor electric strength. This helps in bringing down the downtime of the grid in the non-affected zone. This quality of self-healing in grids has been observed in the upcoming smart grids.

The various advantages for the electricity provider and consumer associated with the use of smart grids are less power restoration time, better energy storage, improved reliability, and better grid performance. Taking the environment into consideration, self-healing grids provide the advantage of less pollution. The increasing adoption of clean energy sources, along with upgradation to smart grids will drive the growth of the global self-healing grids market during the given forecast period.  

Based on components, the global self-healing grids market can be segmented into hardware and software & services. The hardware segment will dominate the market owing to the growing upgrading to smart grids in many countries. Based on its application, the global self-healing grids market can be segmented into transmission and distribution lines. The ongoing urbanization has seen more and more distribution lines to be set up which will distribution lines dominate the global self-healing grids market.
