Report Description

Middle East Smart Grid Market is anticipated to grow at a steady pace in the forecast period, 2024-2028. These grids provide technologies that improve fault detection and enable the self-healing of the network automatically, owing to it, the Middle East Smart Grid Market is expected to grow in the forecast period.

The term "smart grid" refers to an electrical grid with automation, communication, and information technology systems that can track electrical power from places of supply to points of consumption (even down to the level of individual appliances) and manage the power flow or reduce the load to match generation in real-time or almost real-time.

Increasing investments in Smart Meters Installation in the Middle East

The connection between energy consumers and energy suppliers is represented by smart meters, which are the most significant essential part of the future smart grid. With the use of this smart grid link, customers, suppliers, and load control at the consumer's location are all going to receive fast. The Middle East, particularly Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, are expected to take over the regional market, due to their growing economy and rising adoption of technology. The need for smart meters is being driven by the rising per-person power usage. As of 2021, DEWA (Dubai Electricity & Water Authority) has installed 2 million smart meters that are checked and read remotely every 15 minutes. As a result, DEWA managed to boost the availability of meter readings to 99.9%, with most meters being remotely invoiced on the SAP platform.

Additionally, in February 2022, the Dubai Supreme Council of Energy announced its intention to reduce the region's carbon emission by 30% by 2030. The nation has put in place a number of efforts to help it achieve this goal, including the creation of green construction rules, the creation of behavioral control systems for gadgets, cost-effective slab energy pricing, and public education. Therefore, such measures are anticipated to encourage the installation of smart meters, which in turn drives the market for smart grids in the Middle East.

To support Dubai's efforts to become the one of the world's developed city, smart metres have been carried out through an integrated strategy known as DEWA's (Dubai Electricity and Water Authority) which include "Smart Applications via. Smart Grid and Metres" initiative. The strategy includes a number of initiatives to enhance energy management by financial investments in endeavors with a maximum value of AED 7 billion (USD 1.91 Billion), with completion dates in the near, medium, and long periods through 2035. Therefore, during the anticipated period, such investments are projected to fuel the middle east smart grid market.

Increasing Renewable Energy Deployment

The smart grid industry is anticipated to be significantly impacted by rising investment in renewable energy systems over the projected period. The Middle East has made major investments in solar energy in recent years, in an effort to transition away from energy production from traditional energy sources like crude oil and natural gas. Utilizing the smart grid is essential to ensuring a consistent supply of power due to the region's growing integration of renewable energy sources. Renewable energy systems can occasionally provide erratic amounts of power. The Middle East Solar Industry Association (MESIA) predicts that through 2035, the region's electricity consumption would increase by 3.3% annually, but population growth will be much more rapid. The general population growth rate for nations like Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates is 3.5%.

Additionally, by 2030, Dubai aims to have 5% of its power generation come from renewable sources, up from 1% in 2020. Besides that, by the end of 2030, Dubai's aim is to decrease overall energy usage by 30%. According to the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), from 2015 to 2020, solar PV technology costs fell by 58%. For its first large-scale solar installation, Saudi Arabia saw the lowest rates proposed. There has been an increase in interest in the green energy industry as a result of solar power tariffs in some regions reaching cost parity with conventional fuels. By the end of 2035, it is anticipated that the Middle Eastern area would have added around 61 GW of additional solar generating capacity. By the fourth quarter of 2035, the MESIA projects that the Middle East will require 277 GW of new capacity to bring its existing capacity to 483 GW because of rising demand. As a result, the Middle East's market for smart grids is anticipated to be driven by the region's growing integration of renewable energy sources into its power consumption throughout the period of forecasting.

Major Smart Meter Installation Projects in the Region

Middle east countries are focusing on smart grid since high demand of electricity generation is required in the region. The following are some examples of the latest Smart Meter Installation Projects.

In April 2021, over 10 million smart meters have been successfully installed in Saudi Arabia as part of the Smart Metering Project, which was launched nationwide. With a strong emphasis on energy efficiency and power savings, the project has prepared the way for the implementation of smart grid infrastructure in the area.
To digitalize the country's electrical network, Kahramaa, Qatar's general electricity and water organization, mentioned in December 2021 that it has successfully finished the country's smart meter communications networks.
By the end of 2023, Qatar's effort to install 600,000 smart metres nationwide is expected to be complete. When the project is completely carried out, it is anticipated that the smart metres would improve the utility company's dependability and the efficiency of the metre readings, resulting in cost savings of up to 10% for the utility and the consumers.
The announcement of the United Arab Emirates' Net-Zero by 2050, Strategic Initiative in October 2021 made it the first Middle Eastern nation to declare its ambition to attain net-zero emissions. The strategy is for investing 600 billion AED (USD 163.36 Billion) in renewable energy. Furthermore, the government hopes to have roughly 14 GW of installed renewable energy by 2030.
Kuwait aims to generate 15% of its power from renewable sources by 2030. Additionally, in the next several years, the government intends to install roughly 800,000 smart metres to modernize the electrical grid infrastructure. In addition, the government is cutting energy usage by 30% while 15% generation efficiency improvements are made to its power plants.
According to the government of Oman, it aims to generate 16% of its power from renewable sources by 2025 and 30% by 2030. In addition, Oman wants to decrease the rise of GHG emissions and cut emissions by 7% in 2030. The government declared in 2021 that it will install 1.2 million smart metres nationally during the next five years to enhance the electricity infrastructure.

Recent Development

As of September 2020, 1800, New smart meters have been placed around Sharjah, as the Emirates Energy and Water Authority has continued to invest in technology and its smart transformation initiative. The most precise metres available guarantee that residents receive correct monthly bills. In several Sharjah areas, there are already more than 200,000 smart metres. But in addition to putting in the smart metres, the Sharjah Electricity and Water Authority (SEWA) crew in August 2020 examined 8,204 metres and fixed 225 metres.
The Electricity Water and Renewable Energy Ministry announced in October 2021 that it intends to install roughly 800,000 smart metres and anticipates finishing the replacement of all existing metres in the nation within two to three years. The concept suggested installing smart metres in commercial areas first, followed by the rest of the sectors. The government plans to achieve sustainability and a digital transformation of the sophisticated infrastructure under the New Kuwait 2035 goal.
Siemens AG and Qatar Solar Energy (QSE) carried out the first microgrid for industrial usage on March 15, 2022. The QSE plant in Doha is where the microgrid is situated. Solar panels, a backup generator, a cooling system, a local grid, and battery storage all be part of the microgrid's energy mix. Siemens provided solar inverters, microgrid control panels, power metres, distributed energy optimization software, and distributed energy networks.
The Qatar government intends to reach a net-zero goal by 2060. Additionally, in 2021, the government unveiled a national climate change action plan with the goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 25% by the year 2030. Additionally, the government aims to diversify the nation's energy supply by 2030 by investing in photovoltaic (PV) solar energy to reach its 20% non-gas energy goal.
