Market Share of Smart Solar Solutions Industry
The smart solar solutions market is highly fragmented, with many niche players and industry leaders like Siemens AG, ABB Ltd, General Electric, and Schneider Electric SE occupying the market share. The trend in the solar software space is towards fragmentation as companies are looking for multiple tailored solutions to their specific challenges instead of technology solutions that can do multiple things simultaneously.
In January 2023, Itron, Inc. extended its distributed intelligence (DI) platform to enable intelligence in any device, accelerating the energy transition. The company unveiled its new DI network interface card (NIC) that enables edge computing in third-party devices, moving grid analysis, decision-making, and control to the grid's edge, resulting in a significant improvement in time to action, greatly improved situational awareness, more accurate analysis, and advanced event detection. The first-of-its-kind DI NIC will be pivotal in creating new applications for integrating distributed energy resources, such as electric vehicles and solar, into the low-voltage network.
In December 2022, Nextracker, the leading global provider of intelligent solar tracker and software solutions, signed a master supply agreement (MSA) with Amara Raja Power Systems Limited to deliver its award-winning solar trackers for National Thermal Power Corporation (NTPC) Limited's Nokh Solar Project - soon to be one of India's largest solar parks.
