December 28, 2009
Revenue from smart grid applications is expected to reach a short-term peak of about $35 billion in 2013, according to a new report from Pike Research.
At about $10 billion in 2009, the smart grid market should be worth about $18 billion in 2010 and rise steadily until 2013, according to the report “Smart Grid Technologies.”
Pike Research puts cumulative global spending on the smart grid from 2008 to 2015 at $200 billion.
Pike Research’s predictions are more conservative than those from Zpryme, which suggests that the U.S. market alone will be worth more than $42 billion by 2014.
