The major opportunities presented by the development of the smart grid are not just for utilities, power marketers, energy producers,

investors and venture capitalists. In 2014, 89.0 percent or $152.3 billion of the global smart grid market is projected to be comprised

of devices, hardware, software, and communications equipment. These products will form the infrastructure and critical communication

systems which will build, link, monitor, manage and secure the smart grid. Of course not every hardware or software company will have

the resources, technology or engineering expertise to compete in this market, but those with the resources and a flexible knowledge base

should at the very least explore new product opportunities within the emerging smart grid market.
