Market Overview

The Saudi Arabian smart grid network market will generate an estimated revenue of USD 1,396.0 million in 2024, which is expected to witness a CAGR of 18.4% during 2024-2030, to reach USD 3,850.2 million by 2030.

The electricity distribution sector in many regions has been digitalised; with the help of the smart grid technology, it becomes possible to rapidly control and stabilise electricity consumption and determine regions where electricity is consumed in excessive amounts. This results in reducing energy conservation and the costs that are associated with it.

Smart meters in the smart grid network have greatly enabled consumers to recharge their smart meters using electronic methods, and to use utilities appropriately. This leads to the eradication of the printed electricity bills and overall carbon emission control as T&D efficiency reduces energy wastage.

There are existing rules and mandates initiated by Saudi Arabian authorities to ensure utility companies promote smart grids that regulates energy consumption. These rules and mandates have made people shift from automatically installed, older smart residential, industrial and commercial grids. Huge investment is being made in smart cities and integrated residential complexes in KSA where smart grids are being incorporated that is driving the market in the kingdom.
