The increasing quest for new energy sources, renewable energy development, government regulations, and rapid technological advancements are the key drivers which are making the wireless sensors market grow lucratively.
- Their usage has also increased as they are a vital component in smart grids for remote monitoring of transformers and power lines where they are put into service to monitor line temperature and weather conditions.
APAC Wireless Sensors Market Trends
Increasing Adoption of Smart Factories
- The Asia Pacific is one of the largest region in the electrical and electronics manufacturing market. The region is also a significant vendor of wireless sensor technologies, especially in China and Japan.
- Countries, such as China and Japan, are also embracing smart manufacturing, which includes the use of control systems, such as PLC, and SCADA, among others, for various purposes, such as asset monitoring and remote process monitoring. For instance, China aims to establish its intelligent manufacturing system and complete the key industries' transformation by 2025.
- Significant demand for consumer electronics devices like smartphones from countries such as China, India, Japan, and Singapore, are encouraging many vendors to set up production establishments in the region. The availability of raw materials and the low establishment and labor costs have also helped companies launch their production centers in the region.
- Moreover, the increase support and investment by the state governments for smart factories also aids their growth and, in turn, the usage of wireless sensors.
Increasing adoption of smart sensors in the region's automobile sector
- China is one of the world's largest car markets and the world's largest production site for cars, including electric cars, with much growth potential. According to the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM), in September 2021, approximately 317,000 commercial vehicles were sold in China. Sales in China accounted for about 32.56% of global motor vehicle sales. In 2020, around 0.25 million plug-in hybrid cars had been sold in China, which increased from less than 0.1 million a few years back.
- As these industries account for a significant portion of the wireless sensor market, the region offers an excellent opportunity over the forecast period. The growing concept of connected cars and regulations regarding automotive safety is also expected to drive the adoption of wireless sensors in the region.
- The standardization of autonomous driving and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) in the region is expected to boost the market. Supportive government regulations aimed at passenger safety, industrial automation, environment monitoring, etc., also make the Asia Pacific substantial buyers of wireless sensors. The Chinese auto market was affected by regulations that mandate the use of TPMS for new vehicles, starting in 2019. The region houses prominent automakers, such as Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Subaru, and Suzuki, which are potential buyers of the market.
