Building automation system (BAS), is a computer-based control system installed in buildings to control and monitor the building's mechanical and electrical equipment such as ventilation, lighting, power systems, fire systems, and security systems. The main functionality of a building automation system is to maintain optimal temperature and humidity of the building. For example, the humidity should be maintained in range of 0-30% when the day temperature is in the range of 22-30ºC and night temperature ranges from 20ºC to 27ºC. Buildings that adhere to this range of humidity in relation to temperature are said to be in the comfort zone. This system also provides lighting in rooms as per an occupancy schedule, monitors performance and alerts the building maintenance staff about device failures in these systems.
Major factor driving growth of the global building automation system market is increasing integration of IoT (Internet of Things) in building automation systems. IoT enables integration of devices in a building, further converting all the information gathered by these devices into big data that can be stored, analyzed, and used to manage the building through its BAS. IoT uses one common Internet Protocol (IP) platform to connect all the sensors and devices in a building to exchange and analyze information and optimize controls automatically. According to the Coherent Market Insights’ analysis, 1,073.6 units IoT devices were installed in smart homes and1,063 units installed in smart commercial buildings in 2017.
Global Building Automation Systems Market: Regional Insights
The market for building automation system in Asia Pacific is expected witness fastest growth. The growth is attributed to increasing economic growth in emerging economies such as China and India. Increasing economic growth tends to increase the growth of construction industry, for instance, according to the Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion (DIPP), India received US$ 24.7 billion of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in construction development sectors for housing, built up infrastructure and construction development from April 2000 to September 2017. Additionally according to the Smart Cities Mission Project offered by Government of India, 90 smart cities are been proposed with project investments of US$ 30.02 billion , which is expected to positively influence the growth of regional building automation market.
