Indonesia Distributed Generation Market

The Indonesia Distributed Generation Market is expanding rapidly, driven by the country’s geographical archipelago, which makes centralized grid expansion challenging. Distributed generation offers a practical solution for providing electricity to remote and underserved areas. Solar PV systems, diesel generators, and hybrid solutions are commonly deployed in rural and island communities.

Government initiatives, such as the National Energy Policy (NEP), aim to increase the share of renewables in Indonesia’s energy mix, providing a boost to the DG market. Public-private partnerships and international investments are further fueling the deployment of distributed generation systems. However, logistical challenges, high initial costs, and a lack of skilled labor remain barriers to widespread adoption. With Indonesia’s commitment to achieving its renewable energy targets, the distributed generation market is expected to grow significantly in the coming years.

The distributed generation market garners substantial traction globally. The market growth attributes to substantial investments in fostering clean energy. Besides, the increasing penetration of distributed energy resources (DERs) in order to manage distribution grids substantiates the market growth. Current challenges related to the distribution grid and rising electric utility needs escalate market growth.

According to Market Research Future (MRFR), the global distributed generation market is expected to create an exponential valuation by 2032, growing at an impressive CAGR during the review period (2024–2032). Substantial investments to provide clean energy services to residential, commercial, and government sectors drive the market growth. Rapidly proliferating renewable markets boost the market size further.

Additional factors bolstering the distributed generation market growth include regulatory targets for renewable generation with minimal investment in network capacity and increasing network hosting capacity for DERs. The rising demand for efficient distributed energy resource management solutions positively impacts the market increase. Increasing uses of DERs like solar PV, wind, and hydropower influence the growth of the market.

Distributed Generation Market   - Segments

The report is segmented into technology, application, end-use, and regions. The technology segment is segmented into geothermal, solar, wind, biogas, fuel cells, and others. Of these, solar technology holds the largest market share, mainly due to the less cost involved in setting up the system for commercial and residential uses. The application segment is segmented into on-grid and on-grid. 

Of these, on-grid is the largest application segment, mainly due to the cost-efficiency and simple layout of these systems. The end-use segment is segmented into residential, industrial, and commercial. Among these, the commercial segment holds the largest market share. The segment is further estimated to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period. 

Global Distributed Generation Market   - Regional Analysis

Europe dominates the global distributed generation market, witnessing rising implementations of renewable sources of energy. Besides, rising geothermal plants in the region contribute to the distributed generation market growth. Europe has over 100 geothermal stations installed, producing about 15 TWh of power each year. The installed capacity is expected to reach over 3 GWe by 2020.

Furthermore, factors increasing the region’s distributed generation market size include government initiatives undertaken a proof-of-concept exercise where increasing numbers of DER management platforms are deployed to enhance DER capabilities for circuits. 

North America stands second in the global distributed generation market. The region also holds the largest share in the geothermal segment, with over 77 installed plants with 3,086 MW capacities. Additionally, the increasing adoption of renewable sources and rising energy consumption in the region create considerable market demand. Substantial investments in grid and transmission infrastructures boost the growth of the regional market.

The distributed generation market in the Asia Pacific region is growing rapidly. APAC countries, such as India, Japan, and South Korea, are continually working to build a more sustainable, reliable, and affordable energy supply to combat climate change and rising electricity demand. This, as a result, increases the region’s distributed generation market share, deploying improved gigawatt-peak of solar energy.

Global Distributed Generation Market   - Competitive Landscape

Highly competitive, the distributed generation market appears to be fragmented due to the presence of several well-established industry players. These players initiate strategic approaches such as mergers & acquisitions, collaboration, expansion, and technology launch to gain a larger competitive advantage. 

Major Players

Players leading the global distributed generation market are Ansaldo ENergia (Italy), General Electric Company (US), Bloom Energy (US), Caterpillar Inc. (US), Schneider Electric SE (France), Siemens AG (Germany), Fuel Cell Energy Inc (US), Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. (Japan), Bergey Windpower (US), and Cummins Inc (US), among others.
