DUBLIN, June 03, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/594m7g/global_smart_grid) has announced the addition of the "Global Smart Grid Vendor Landscape" report to their offering.

Smart grid investment will reach $380.1 billion between 2015 and 2025.

The smart grid vendor landscape is undergoing a period of change. In developed countries in North America, Europe, and East Asia, markets are maturing and vendors are consolidating. Several of the larger vendors now offer integrated solutions throughout the smart metering value chain, while communications and data analytics providers are increasingly active across multiple smart grid segments, improving the coordination between smart metering, distribution automation and home energy management. Meanwhile, in emerging market countries - across Africa, Central & Eastern Europe, Eurasia, Latin America, the Middle East & North Africa, South Asia, and Southeast Asia - the market is just beginning to grow. Dozens of local vendors have begun to serve smart grid projects, both on their own and as partners of larger international firms.

With high growth rates projected for smart grid projects in emerging market countries, this represents the next frontier of vendor activity and opportunity. The dynamics between growing and consolidating international smart grid vendors and smaller, more fragmented local players will help shape the speed and direction of smart grid deployments across the globe.

This study takes a comprehensive look at the trends shaping the smart grid vendor landscape and how firms are positioning themselves to succeed. It includes over 500 vendors already active in smart grid projects across all regions of the world, highlights growing regions and market segments, and assesses the existing partnerships, mergers, and acquisitions that are altering the smart grid market. This study presents a picture of the competitive landscape of the hundreds of vendors competing for this growing market.
