Power System State Estimator Market Forecasts and Opportunities, 2019 - Software type, Application and Solution Methods
M2 - Wed Oct 15, 5:42AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/xsb573/power_system) has announced the addition of the "Power System State Estimator Market by Software type, Application and Solution Methods - Global Trends & Forecasts to 2019" report to their offering. The global power system state estimator market is estimated to reach $5.87 Billion by 2019 from $3 billion in 2014, with a projected CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) of 14.35%, signifying a high demand for state estimator and increasing concern for energy savings. Effective monitoring and control of the grid requires real-time analysis tools that can estimate the system state and also predict its response to changing load and weather conditions. Thus, power system analysis requires dynamic network topology and real-time measurements. State estimation is the process of assigning a value to an unknown system state variable, based on measurements from that system based on preset criteria. The process involves imperfect measurements that are redundant and the process of estimating the system states is based on a statistical criterion that takes into account the true value of state variables to minimize or maximize the selected criterion. In a power system, state variables are the voltage MAGNITUDES and Relative Phase Angles at the System Nodes. The inputs to an estimator are imperfect power system measurements of voltage magnitude and power, VAR, or ampere flow quantities. The estimator is designed to produce the best estimate of the system voltage and phase angles, recognizing that there are errors in the measured quantities and that they may be redundant measurements. With more smart metering devices being deployed on the grid, power system analysis receives data with higher accuracy and resolution. However, wide deployment of metering devices is limited owing to their high price. When metering devices are installed at key locations on the grid, state estimation can serve as a useful technique to fill-in the missing points as well as smooth-out noisy measurements. The estimation result reflects the true state of the circuit parameters such as bus voltages, real, and reactive power flow on the branches.

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/d7f9b4/natural_gas) has announced the addition of the "Natural Gas Storage Market by Type, and by Geography - Global Trends & Forecasts to 2019" report to their offering. The global natural gas storage market is projected to reach $763.60 Billion by 2019 The liquefaction and regasification market would reach $299.45 Billion and $18.88 Billion respectively while the underground storage market is expected to be $445.27 Billion by 2019. The Americas dominated both underground and above-ground liquified natural gas storage market in 2013. In terms of underground storage capacity, Americas have the highest working gas capacity of 152.0 BCM (billion cubic meters) in 2013. Between 2014 - 2019, the region is expected to expand its capacity by 5.3 BCM to reach a total of 158.6 BCM by 2019. In terms of above ground storage facility that includes liquefied natural gas storage , Americas have the highest liquefaction capacity in comparison to Asia-Pacific, which dominates the market in regasification capacity. Over the next five years, the global LNG requirement is expected to increase by an additional 279.7 MTPA. By 2019, the global liquefaction capacity is expected to be 704.9 MTPA. The natural gas storage market can be classified broadly into two categories namely, underground natural gas storage and above-ground natural gas storage. In 2013, the total underground working gas capacity was 395.6 BCM and is expected to reach 458.2 BCM by 2019, because of heavy increament in storage facilities from 2014-2019. In terms of above ground storage in 2013, the total liquefaction and regasification capacity was 403.2 MTPA and 464.9 MTPA, which is later expected to reach 704.9 MTPA and 575.5 MTPA by 2019, because of expansion in storage facilities from 2014 - 2019.

Global Concentrated Solar Power (Parabolic Trough, Tower, Fresnel and Dish Sterling) Market 2012 - 2020
M2 - Fri Aug 22, 3:21AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/7rk667/concentrated) has announced the addition of the "Concentrated Solar Power Market for product segment - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2012 - 2020" report to their offering. This research study analyzes the market size of Concentrated Solar Power, in terms of volume (MW installed) and revenue (USD million). The major driver for concentrated solar power market is rising awareness about the global warming. Carbon emissions from the fossil fuel generating stations are one of the major causes of green house gases in atmosphere. Governments from different countries have started taking appropriate measure for reducing the green house gases emission in the atmosphere. Alteration in the power generation process is one of the major steps taken towards to reduce the carbon footprints in the atmosphere. The CSP market can be segmented broadly on the basis of different types of technology used for power generation. CSP technology can be broadly segmented into Parabolic Trough, Tower, Fresnel and Dish Sterling. Among all these technologies Parabolic Trough is considered to be the most matured technology and is used widely at commercial level for power generation. After Parabolic Trough, Tower is widely used followed by Fresnel. Parabolic Trough was the most dominating technology used for power generation in 2013 and is expected to grow at a healthy CAGR during the forecasted period 2014 - 2020. Dish Sterling technology is still used for demonstration and pilot projects. CSP technology is considered to be high capital intensive in nature and without governmental and financial institutions support it cannot be deployed at commercial scale. Government incentive and rebate schemes along with low feed in tariffs are major drivers for the demand of CSP technology. Though because of economic slowdown in Europe, the market has led a slow degradation in the installation process but the market is expected to grow during the forecasted period 2014-2020. Tower technology is growing with the fastest rate because of the integration of technology with the conventional thermal power plants. In terms of CSP installed capacity, Europe is considered as the leading producer of power from CSP technology in the world and the production is expected to grow in the forecasted period of 2012-2019. The second largest production comes from the North America followed by Asia Pacific. The market for the CSP in Asia Pacific is expected to rise with in the forecasted period.
