RTU in Smart Grid Market: Overview
A remote Terminal Unit (RTU) is a remotely located device that gathers data, codes it into a transmittable format, and then transfers the information to the distributed control system or master. Additionally, an RTU collects data from the controller device and carries out procedures that the master has directed. RTUs have a communications port, output channels for control, indication, or alarms, and input channels for sensing or metering.
In a smart grid, the RTU can gather and transfer data on the electric power condition and transfer it to the station. RTU is now an essential component of transformer substations and the smart grid.
RTU in Smart Grid Market: COVID–19 Impact Analysis
The outbreak of COVID-19 did not significantly impact the RTU in the smart grid market. However, the market faced challenges concerning equipment availability due to supply chain disruptions. The pandemic made energy providers realize that smart grid network equipment, like RTUs, not only offers a reduction in losses, improved operational efficiency, and grid stability but also provides opportunities for increased revenue generation to offset distribution companies’ losses because of lockdowns. The market is anticipated to increase due to rising investments in and deployment of smart grid technologies like smart meters, EV chargers, and other related smart grid infrastructure technologies in the upcoming years.
RTU in Smart Grid Market: Growth Drivers
The RTUs are capable of making automatic decisions.
An electrical system known as the “smart grid” can make targeted decisions on slowing down, shutting down, or ramping up power based on usage, demand, and other considerations. But to accomplish this, a smart grid RTU must be functional. To transfer massive volumes of data to a master station that can make the right judgments, RTUs must be able to monitor data from all across the grid.
Rapid investments in smart grids
Demand for RTU in smart grids is driven by the increasing adoption of smart grids over traditional grids. Government mandates, increased product awareness, energy conservation policies, and the adoption of smart grid technologies are driving the growth of RTU in smart grid sensor sales. Governments worldwide are changing policies to reduce carbon emissions and reliance on fossil fuels.
