Market Overview:
The global electrically active smart glass and windows market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market is segmented on the basis of type, application, and region. On the basis of type, the market is segmented into electrochromic, thermochromic, SPD smart glass, PDLC (polymer dispersed liquid crystal), and others. Electrochromic smart glass dominates the global electrically active smart glass and windows market in terms of revenue share in 2017. This dominance is attributed to its ability to change light transmission properties depending on an applied voltage or current signal. On the basis of application, commercial buildings accounted for majority share in 2017 owing to increasing demand for energy-efficient buildings across developed economies such as North America and Europe.
Product Definition:
Electrically active smart glass and windows are windows or glasses that can change their transparency or opacity in response to an applied voltage. They are used for a variety of purposes, including privacy control, solar energy harvesting, and light modulation.
Electrochromic:
Electrochromic is a technology that can change the color of an electrically conductive solid-state material based on an applied electric field. The most common electrochromic devices are smart windows, which can be tinted or transparent depending upon the amount of light entering into them. They have wide applications in buildings and construction for controlling natural light, heat, and solar control to protect interior as well as exterior environments from harmful UV rays.
Thermochromic:
Thermochromism is the property to change color due to temperature changes. In nature, this phenomenon is observed in some minerals such as kyanite and fluorite where they change color when exposed to heat or cold. Thermochromic films are made by using nanoparticles which can be either organic or inorganic depending upon the type of substrate being used for film formation.
Application Insights:
Electrically active smart glass and windows find application in commercial buildings, residential buildings, automotive & transports and other applications. The commercial building segment accounted for the largest share of over 50% in 2017. Electrically active smart glass windows are used to control solar heat gain by regulating the flow of natural light into a room through its transparent portion. This technology also provides privacy by darkening the room when necessary thereby making it an ideal solution for designing office spaces or conference rooms.
The residential building segment is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to rising awareness regarding energy conservation among consumers along with increasing government initiatives on promoting renewable sources of energy such as solar power for heating water or air conditioning systems at a domestic level across various regions globally including North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and Middle East & Africa.
Regional Analysis:
North America accounted for the largest market share in 2017. The region is expected to maintain its lead over the forecast period owing to rising adoption of electrically active smart glass and windows in commercial buildings, such as shopping malls, restaurants, hotels and offices. Increasing penetration of these products due to their superior characteristics compared to other available alternatives is also one of the major factors contributing toward regional growth.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to be one of the fastest-growing regions during the forecast period owing with increasing construction activities mainly in India and China on account of rapid urbanization resulting into high demand for new residential constructions along with growing infrastructure activities across various sectors including transportation which will drive product demand further. In addition, rising awareness regarding energy conservation coupled with stringent government regulations pertaining towards energy consumption will augment market growth over this region has a large number of building structures are being refurbished or newly constructed thereby driving product demand further.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for energy-efficient and eco-friendly products
- Growing awareness about the benefits of smart glass and windows
- Rising demand from the construction industry
- Increasing use of smart glass and windows in automobiles
- Technological advancements
