Market Overview

SCADA is an automated tool for monitoring, analyzing, and collecting real-time data for report generation. SCADA remotely monitors and manages a wide range of industrial devices and sensors, displaying the data in a logical and structured format to decrease waste and enhance manufacturing efficiency. The SCADA system automates water and wastewater treatment plants while also automatically managing and organizing operational data. Utility departments, water, and wastewater management firms, and other manufacturers use SCADA to regulate and automate data. Staff members in these industries can use multiple data logging points to discover real-time problems in their water and wastewater treatment systems. For instance, In September 2023, the Rajasthan State Water Informatic Centre, which operates under the auspices of the State Water Resources Department (WRD), was planning to integrate SCADA technology into the Indira Gandhi Canal. The implementation of SCADA was supposed to aid in rapid information dissemination, transparent water distribution, and ensuring water supply for all stakeholders. These enhancements are crucial for efficient irrigation water management. Governments are creating and implementing stronger laws to protect SCADA systems in significant infrastructure sectors. These requirements typically require specific security processes, vulnerability assessments, and incident response plans.

Driving Factors

The supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) market is expected to grow during the forecast period due to increased acceptance of industry 4.0 solutions utilizing supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems, rising demand for industrial mobility solutions for effective process industry management, and the use of software platforms such as internet of things (IoT) and artificial intelligence (AI). Sensors and smart meters are examples of IoT devices that can be put across water and wastewater systems to collect real-time data on characteristics like water quality, flow rate, and pressure. This data can be supplied into a SCADA system, which can then be evaluated and used to manage processes, change treatment settings, and identify equipment problems. Thus, such factors are boosting the market growth in the forecast period.

Restraining Factors

As with any SCADA system, safety is essential so appropriate safeguards must be included to protect the system from cyber threats and other security risks. In addition, the amount of data created by SCADA systems can be massive, making appropriate data management solutions critical to ensuring accurate data analysis and usage. To stay current and functional, these systems must be maintained and upgraded regularly. This can be challenging, particularly for small businesses with little resources.

Market Segmentation

The global SCADA in water and wastewater management market share is classified into component and end user.

• The software segment is expected to hold the largest share of the global SCADA in Water and Wastewater Management market during the forecast period.   

Based on the component, the global SCADA in water and wastewater management market is categorized into software, and hardware. Among these, the software segment is expected to hold the largest share of the global SCADA in water and wastewater management market during the forecast period. The software enables the SCADA system to control and monitor components of the water system such as pumps, filters, and valves. It also gives real-time data on the state of the water system, allowing users to make informed decisions about system management and maintenance. The program can process vast volumes of data, including sensor data, network data, and device data, and it allows to analyze and visualize it in real time. The software component of a water and wastewater SCADA system is always changing, with new features and capabilities being introduced to increase system efficiency and dependability.

• The residential segment is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period.   

Based on the end user, the global SCADA in water and wastewater management market is categorized into residential, and industrial. Among these, the residential segment is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecast period. The application of SCADA in residential water and wastewater management is increasing due to a strong demand for monitoring and controlling individual water treatment and distribution systems in individual homes or small communities. These systems usually include sensors that assess water quality, flow rate, pressure, and other factors, as well as controls like pumps, valves, and filter systems.  These are often less sophisticated than utility or industrial systems, allowing for simpler software implementation.
