The increasing adoption of automation and the need for enhanced operational efficiency in various industries are major drivers of this market. In the power generation industry, the growing demand for renewable energy and stringent environmental regulations are expected to present a sizeable growth opportunity for distributed control system providers.

Industries such as oil and gas, power generation, and water treatment are increasingly adopting automation to enhance efficiency, safety, and productivity across different processes. A distributed control system (DCS) enables centralized monitoring and control of complex industrial processes, reducing human intervention and minimizing the risk of errors. A steady shift towards smart factories is expected to drive the adoption of DCS further, as these systems are integral to implementing advanced manufacturing technologies. For instance, in April 2024, Valmet launched its next-generation DCS solution, the Valmet DNAe. The system is designed to deliver a state-of-the-art user experience and cybersecurity and comes with control software and hardware, cybersecure system architecture, and engineering and analytics tools. Other companies aim to develop advanced products that can offer automation solutions to diverse process industries worldwide, driving industry expansion.

Distributed control systems are widely used in renewable power generation plants to ensure robust, reliable, and efficient control of geographically dispersed assets. As investments in renewable energy infrastructure continue to grow, the demand for DCS solutions in this sector is anticipated to rise significantly. Moreover, integrating distributed control systems with advanced software solutions allows seamless data flow across different enterprise levels, enabling better coordination, visibility, and operational control. Additionally, distributed control systems provide real-time insights, enhance decision-making, and streamline workflows, thus improving overall efficiency and productivity. For instance, in February 2023, ABB launched its latest version of ABB Ability Symphony Plus distributed control system (DCS) to accelerate digital transformation in process automation for water and power generation industries. The system includes an SD Series e-Class process controller that enables plant-wide digitalization. It minimizes the impact on system infrastructure and process operations during digital transformation.
