POWER MONITORING SYSTEM MARKET Challenges and Opportunities

The market faces significant challenges in terms of high upfront installation and maintenance costs. Power monitoring systems involve sophisticated hardware and software components to measure energy consumption. Deploying these systems on a large scale across industries requires substantial capital expenditure. The sensors, metering devices, communications infrastructure and data management platforms entail high initial procurement expenditure. Moreover, continuous upgrades, timely repairs and periodic replacements add to the operating expenses over the lifespan of the systems.

Market Opportunity - Integration of power monitoring systems with IT systems and smart devices

The integration of power monitoring systems with existing IT infrastructure and smart devices presents significant opportunities for the market. As industries invest heavily in digital transformation, power monitoring data can be seamlessly integrated with other operational systems for improved visibility and decision making. Linking energy data with enterprise resource planning (ERP), asset management, and building automation improves overall equipment effectiveness. For example, correlating consumption patterns with production metrics helps identify inefficiencies.
