Market Overview:
The global remote terminal units (RTU) market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the RTU market can be attributed to the increasing demand for smart grids and communication & telecommunications applications, and the growing need for oil & gas and environmental monitoring applications. The GSM remote terminal units segment is expected to hold the largest share of the RTU market in 2018, owing to its widespread adoption across various industries such as oil & gas, environmental monitoring, medical monitoring, smart grid, communication & telecommunications, and others. However, the GPRS remote terminal units segment is projected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period due its advantages such as high speed data transmission and low power consumption over GSM remote terminal units.
 Industry Outlook.svg)
Product Definition:
A remote terminal unit (RTU) is a type of computerized data acquisition and control unit that collects and processes data from various sensors in an industrial process or facility. It then sends the processed information to a central processing location, often via supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) software. RTUs are typically used to monitor processes such as oil refineries, water treatment plants, power plants, and other industrial or municipal facilities.
GSM Remote Terminal Units:
Global System for Mobile communications (GSM) remote terminal units are used in the telecommunication industry to establish a connection between two systems. It is also known as Asynchronous Transfer Mode Data Unit orAM data unit and synchronous transfer mode data unit or AS data unit.
GPRS Remote Terminal Units:
GPRS remote terminal units are mobile communication devices used to access data from a mobile station without the physical presence of the user. The GPRS remote terminal unit enables users to access their e-mails, browse web pages, and view their financial transactions on computers or cell phones. It also provides location information such as precise position accuracy within a few meters and allows users to receive push notifications regarding new messages, calls or other alerts when they are nearby.
Application Insights:
The oil & gas application segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2016 and is projected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The RTUs are used in remote locations, where electricity supply is a problem. These units are also used in offshore platforms as they offer enhanced battery life and ensure better connectivity even if there is no power supply.
The communication & telecommunications segment was valued at USD 1,227.5 million in 2016 owing to an increase use of these devices for voice calls on mobile phones as well as data transmission and reception on laptops etcetera from fixed locations such as offices or residential complexes. Moreover, companies such as Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd., ZTE Corporation; Lenovo Group Ltd.; Coolpad Technology Co.,Ltd.; Aisheng Luma Technology Co., Ltd.
Regional Analysis:
The Asia Pacific regional market dominated the global industry in 2016 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The growth of this region can be attributed to increasing demand for cost-effective, high-performance remote monitoring systems from various industrial applications. Moreover, rising investments by governments in developing countries are likely to boost the adoption of RTUs over the next eight years.
North America accounted for a significant revenue share in 2016 owing to growing oil & gas exploration activities across U.S., Canada, and Mexico that are driving up demand for remote monitoring solutions within this industry vertical. In addition, presence of key players such as General Electric; Honeywell International Inc.; Emerson Electric Co.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for smart grid and IIoT applications
- Proliferation of renewable energy sources
- Growing demand for data center cooling solutions
- Rising concerns over energy efficiency and sustainability
- Development of next-generation RTUs with enhanced capabilities
