Report Description
A microgrid is a modern small-scale electricity system used to generate, distribute and regulate
the flow of electrical power. It includes distributed energy resources and multiple loads which
enable it to interconnect with other electrical grids as well as operate in a parallel power
generation environment. Microgrids can be used to generate power from both renewable and
non-renewable energy sources. There are different types of microgrids. The first one is true
microgrid or customer microgrid, which is self-governed, has a regulatory structure and is
compatible with the current technology. The second type is utility or community microgrid or
mill grid which involves a division of regulated grid. The third variety is virtual microgrid orvgrid.
It covers multiple sites’ distributed energy resources (DER) and are coordinated in a manner
such that they can be presented as a single unit to the grid.

However, monetary obstructions, complication in land acquisition and registration of land for
solar PV installation in rural areas, high primary cost of installation, huge investment required
for integrating existing systems with microgrid, technological barriersetc are some of the aspects
holding back the microgrid market in some regions.
The microgrid market can be segmented into verticals, technology and type. By verticals, the
market can be categorized into public sector, healthcare, telecom and manufacturing. On the
basis of technology, the market can be divided into various categories such as by power and
component technology. By type, microgrid market is segmented into off-grid, connected grid
and hybrid grid.
The microgrid market is expected to be a multi-billion-dollar market and to grow at a significant
rate during the forecast period, from 2014 to 2020. At present, the market is led by North
America owing to growing industrialization and electrification. However, it is expected to
