Dublin, Sept. 02, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Smart Grid Cyber Security Market 2016-2020" report to their offering.
The analysts forecast the global smart grid cyber security market to grow at a CAGR of 9.79% during the period 2016-2020.
The report covers the present scenario and the growth prospects of the global smart grid cyber security market for 2016-2020. To calculate the market size, the report considers the revenue generated from the demand generated by different end users in any region in the smart grid cyber security market.
Many vendors such as Elster, IBM, and eMeter offer cloud-based smart grid solutions. Many organizations have been able to cut costs and centralize their resources because of availing cloud-based services. Consequently, there has been an increase in the number of utilities adopting cloud-based services. Many European-based utilities have been availing cloud-based services from smart grid vendors.
According to the report, one of the key drivers for market growth will be compliance with government and regulatory standards. The power grid is an easy target for adversaries who would seek to cause significant physical, economic, and psychological harm, to a nation. This is because a nation's grid is operated by various regional utilities that are also interconnected through a smart grid, which is essential for maintaining a stable and reliable power system.
Further, the report states that consequent to the overall lack of standardization within the grid network, the gap of interoperability among power systems widened. Smart grids include many systems that are intertwined and connected to the main server. The disparity that this system integration creates between networking systems is wide-ranging and affects the overall functionality of the grid. Utilities are yet to deploy systems that are interoperable.
