Revenue for the Residential Distributed Energy Resources Market is Expected to Total $423 Billion from 2016 to 2025
A recent report from Navigant Research analyzes the global market for residential distributed energy resources (RDER), with global market forecasts for the power capacity and revenue of key technologies, through 2025. Four technologies are anticipated to transform the electric utility industry and utilities’ relationships with customers. Electric vehicle charging, distributed solar PV, distributed energy storage, and demand response (DR) are becoming increasingly mature and more popular among consumers interested in RDER.

“Consumers are becoming more environmentally conscious and aware of their energy use, which is driving uptake in technologies that enable them to produce energy or offset consumption,” says Paige Leuschner, research analyst with Navigant Research. “Demand response and solar PV are expected to lead the residential market.” Distributed solar PV systems present perhaps the most significant challenge to incumbent utility business models, according to the report. Utilities must ensure that power from solar PV matches the voltage, frequency, and power quality of the grid, but also that solar does not threaten electricity sales as more consumers and communities rely on solar to generate their own energy.
The report, Market Data: Residential Distributed Energy Resources, examines the global RDER market, with a focus on four key technologies: EV charging, distributed solar PV, DESSs, and residential DR (RDR). The study provides an overview of these major technologies, as well as other RDER technologies such as gensets and fuel cells. Global market forecasts for the power capacity and revenue of each technology, broken out by technology and region, extend through 2025. An Executive Summary of the report is available for free download on the Navigant Research website.
