Fuel Cells, one of the segments analyzed in the report, is projected to record 11% CAGR and reach US$92.9 Billion by the end of the analysis period. Growth in the Solar Pv Cells segment is estimated at 14.2% CAGR for the next 8-year period.

This comprehensive report examines the multifaceted impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the power and energy sector, shedding light on how it has acted as a catalyst for the ongoing energy transition. Beyond addressing immediate challenges, the report provides strategic recommendations for the power and energy sector as it navigates the post-pandemic landscape.

A significant focus of the report is on the increased adoption of Demand Side Management Applications through Distributed Energy Resources (DERs), which have gained prominence due to the pandemic's disruptions. It explores the concept of distributed generation, encompassing a diverse range of resources and technologies. These include fuel cells, solar photovoltaic systems, distributed wind turbines, gas turbines, reciprocating engines, microturbines, and microhydroelectric generators, each with its typical installed capacity range and distinct applications.

The report highlights how distributed generation is transforming the electric power industry, with solar photovoltaic technology leading the growth trajectory. It points out that the commercial segment is the largest end-use market, while Europe stands as the largest regional market. Developing regions are experiencing rapid growth in this sector. The distribution of revenues between developed and developing regions in the world distributed generation market for 2021 and 2027 is also analyzed.

Key trends in the Distributed Energy Resources (DER) market are outlined, and the factors driving the deployment of distributed generation in both developed and developing economies are discussed. These drivers include environmental benefits, utility advantages, enhanced reliability and energy security, grid expansion benefits, and supportive government regulations and policies.

Furthermore, the report examines specific segments within distributed generation, such as distributed solar, distributed wind power (with a focus on the U.S. market), and the growing interest in distributed fuel cell generation systems, particularly Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs) and natural gas-based distributed generation. It also covers technologies like reciprocating combustion engines (RCEs) and combustion turbines, providing details on power technology, size range, power efficiency, fuel options, and applications.
