Pune, India -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/14/2018 -- Virtual Power Plant Market Overview:-
The change in dynamics of power grid from centralized to distributed sources, ability of virtual power plants to provide peak load electricity on short notice and easy accessibility of energy through virtual power plants are acting as driving factors for the growth of the global virtual power plant market. However, the health concerns regarding the overexposure to high-frequency electromagnetic waves are likely to act as a restraint on the expansion of the global virtual power plant market during the forecast period.
The virtual power plant is an aggregation of decentralized energy sources that integrates several types of small-scale energy sources and acts as a single large power plant. As per the report that has been recently published by Market Research Future (MRFR), the global virtual power plant market is anticipated to expand remarkably at a strong CAGR of over 22% during the forecast period of 2017-2023.
The increasing demand for renewable energy sources such as wind energy, biogas, biomass energy, solar energy and others due to the rapid depletion of conventional energy sources such as fossil fuels is majorly driving the expansion of the global virtual power plant market. The virtual power plant acts as a single large power supply facility based on sophisticated software for operation, hence the rapid adoption of advanced technology in energy and power sector is fueling the expansion of the global virtual power plant market.
