Market Overview:
The global analog sun sensors market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for solar energy across the globe and rising investments in space exploration programs. Analog sun sensors are used in various applications such as space, renewable energy, aeronautics, defense, and automotive. Among these applications, the demand for analog sun sensors is highest in the space application due to the need for accurate information about celestial objects. North America dominates the global analog sun sensor market followed by Europe and Asia Pacific.
Product Definition:
Analog sun sensors are used to measure the position of the sun. This information is used to calculate the time of day, and to adjust the position of solar panels or other devices that rely on sunlight. Analog sun sensors are important for optimizing solar energy usage.
Coarse Analog Sun Sensors:
Coarse analog sun sensors are used to measure the intensity of sunlight, which is a function of solar irradiance. These sensors have wide applications in automotive and industrial sectors. The growing demand for renewable energy has led to an increase in the installation of solar panels on residential and commercial buildings, which is expected to drive market growth over the forecast period.
Fine Analog Sun Sensors:
Fine analog sun sensors are used in solar panels to measure the amount of light that falls on them and provide an output. These sensors have a special coating that changes color when it is exposed to sunlight. The change in color indicates the power production level of the panel.
These sensors are available with different coatings, which can be changed according to customer requirements and this helps improve efficiency as well as accuracy of power generation from solar panels.
Application Insights:
The space segment accounted for the largest revenue share in 2016 and is projected to continue leading over the forecast period. The sun sensors used in space applications need to be extremely lightweight, as there is no gravity acting on these devices. Hence, they are made of very small components so that they can be mounted on satellites with high precision. Analog sun sensors offer a wide range of output options which include proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control, open-loop control and closed-loop control along with other advanced features such as temperature compensated sensor output and integral derivative (ID) mode stabilization.
The renewable energy application segment is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to rising demand for solar power across various regions including North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and Middle East & Africa.
Regional Analysis:
The market in North America accounted for the largest revenue share in 2017 owing to the presence of a large number of solar power plants. The region is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period, with installations of new solar farms accounting for a major chunk of capacity additions. In addition, favorable government policies and mandates are also expected to drive regional growth. For instance, according to Solar Energy Industries Corporation (SEIC) statistics, as on 2018, there were 1.4 million installed capacities from 2014-2016 cohort across U.S.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to be one of the fastest growing regions due toward increasing installation capacity and rising investments from foreign players such as Honeywell International Inc.; Siemens AG; and Johnson Controls Inc.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for solar energy owing to its environment-friendly nature
- Rising awareness about the benefits of solar energy among consumers
- Favorable government policies and initiatives supporting the adoption of solar energy
- Technological advancements in photovoltaic (PV) cells that have made them more efficient and affordable
- Growing demand for smart homes and buildings, which is boosting the uptake of sun sensors
