Automation and Instrumentation in Power Market Set for 7.2% CAGR Growth, Reaching $57 Bn by 2032
Rising power demand and grid modernization fuel automation and instrumentation market growth, with technology driving efficiency and reliability.
WILMINGTON, DE, UNITED STATES, August 18, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- According to a new report published by Allied Market Research, titled, “Automation and Instrumentation In Power Market, by Solution (Advanced Process Control (APC), Distributed Control System (DCS), Human Machine Interaction (HMI), Manufacturing Execution System (MES), Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), Safety Automation Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA)), by Instrument (Field Instruments, Process Analyzers): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2022 - 2032" The automation and instrumentation in power market was valued at $29.8 billion in 2022, and is estimated to reach $57 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 7.2% from 2023 to 2032.Automation and instrumentation play vital functions in the power business, transforming how electricity is generated, transferred, distributed, and used. Automation is the use of control systems and information technology to improve power plant operations, whereas instrumentation is the use of sensors and devices to monitor and measure various parameters. They work together to make power plants more efficient, safe, and reliable, while also lowering costs and environmental effects. One of the most important applications of automation and instrumentation in the power sector is power generating.
Modern power plants, whether thermal, hydroelectric, nuclear, or renewable, rely significantly on automation to manage the numerous processes involved in producing energy. For example, in a thermal power plant, automation systems manage the combustion process, steam generation, and turbine operation to achieve peak performance and efficiency.

The constant pursuit of efficiency is the basis of the automation movement. Automated systems, powered by advanced algorithms and real-time data analysis, optimize all aspects of electricity generation and distribution, reducing waste while increasing output. Automation decreases human error, improves precision, and speeds up response times to dynamic demands on the power grid. This efficiency translates into concrete economic benefits since lower operating costs and improved resource utilization contribute to total cost reductions for both energy producers and consumers.
Furthermore, the combination of automation and instrumentation opens new possibilities in data analytics and artificial intelligence, opening the way for predictive modelling, machine learning, and optimization algorithms adapted to the power sector's particular issues. By leveraging big data analytics, power utilities can extract meaningful insights from massive amounts of operational data, revealing hidden patterns and optimizing asset performance in real time.
One major impediment is the initial cost necessary to deploy automation and instrumentation systems. Upgrading old infrastructure or installing new systems necessitates significant capital expenditure, which can be prohibitively expensive for certain power firms, particularly smaller ones or those operating in locations with limited financial resources. In addition, the expenditures of training workers to run and maintain these modern technologies increase the financial strain. As a result, many organizations may be hesitant to implement automation and instrumentation technology, despite the potential long-term benefits.
Moreover, to financial and technological problems, regulatory barriers can stymie the broad adoption of automation and instrumentation in the power industry. Regulatory frameworks for the energy business vary by jurisdiction and may not always keep up with the quick pace of technical improvements.
On the contrary, the integration of automation and instrumentation improves the dependability of power production infrastructure by allowing for predictive maintenance techniques. Advanced sensors and monitoring systems continually evaluate equipment health, identifying irregularities and forecasting probable breakdowns before they occur. This proactive strategy minimizes downtime, increases equipment longevity, and lowers maintenance costs. Furthermore, automation systems provide remote monitoring and control, allowing operators to efficiently manage assets across several geographical areas. Power plants may improve dependability and maximize ROI by assuring optimal asset performance. In addition, automation and instrumentation technologies are driving power grid upgrading and smart grid deployment.
