Market Overview:
The global smart glass in automotive 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 active smart window and passive smart window. Active smart windows are further sub-segmented into electrochromic glass and photochromic glass. Passive Smart windows are further sub-segmented into thermochromic glass and SPD (suspended particle device) glass. On the basis of application, the market is segmented into passenger car and commercial vehicle segments.
Product Definition:
Smart Glass is a transparent material that can change its opacity. It usually consists of two panels of glass, with an electronic display or liquid crystal sandwiched between them. When voltage is applied, the molecules in the liquid crystal rearrange themselves so that light cannot pass through them, making the glass opaque. When the voltage is turned off, the molecules return to their original position and light passes through again. This allows Smart Glass to be used as a window shade or mirror.
Active Smart Window:
Active smart window is a technology-enabled transparent glass that can change its transparency based on the amount of light falling upon it. It has several advantages over traditional windows such as high thermal resistance, noise reduction, and low energy consumption. The product also provides better visibility and safety while driving at night or in bad weather conditions.
The global active smart window market size was valued at USD 648 million in 2015.
Passive Smart Window:
Passive smart window is a new technology that has evolved over the years and it is used in many applications such as smart glass in automotive. It can also be used for commercial, residential and industrial purposes. The basic function of passive smart window is to provide insulation by reducing heat transfer from the inside to the outside through windows.
The market for passive smart window was dominated by Europe until 2014; however, Asia Pacific has taken over due to high growth rates in countries like India.
Application Insights:
Passenger car was the largest application segment and accounted for a share of over 70.0% in 2017. The growth can be attributed to increasing demand for passenger cars due to rising income levels across various regions, including Asia Pacific and Middle East & Africa. In addition, growing preference for luxury vehicles is expected to drive the demand further.
The commercial vehicle segment is expected to grow at a significant rate over the forecast period owing to increased adoption of smart glass in heavy commercial vehicles such as trucks and buses among others which require protection from extreme weather conditions, thereby improving visibility on roadsides while reducing glare on drivers¢â‚¬â„¢ eyes resulting in improved driving experience along with cost-saving benefits for transport operators.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017. The region is expected to maintain its position during the forecast period. This can be attributed to increasing adoption of smart cars, which incorporate these windows in their design.
The Asia Pacific regional market captured a revenue share of over 20% in 2017 and is estimated to exhibit a CAGR exceeding 6% from 2018 through 2030.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for luxury and comfort in vehicles
- Rising disposable income of consumers
- Technological advancements in the automotive industry
- Government initiatives to promote electric and hybrid vehicles
- Growing awareness about the benefits of smart glass
