Building automation systems, commonly known as BAS, are widely used in the construction sector due to their numerous benefits. These systems are a collection of components used to acquire control and access to electronic devices. This mix of software and hardware helps to control HVAC, lighting, safety, and other systems. The solutions contribute to lowering building energy consumption, lowering operating costs, and increasing the overall lives of devices. With increased technology advancement and integrated systems powered by IoT and 5G technologies, the demand for automation systems is expected to increase significantly.
United States Building Automation System Market Driving Factors and Challenges
Driving Factors - The growing awareness and use of smart building technologies is greatly expanding the BAS market. Property owners and facility managers are becoming increasingly aware of the advantages of building automation systems, such as increased operational efficiency, enhanced security, and improved occupant comfort. Smart buildings equipped with modern BAS may automatically alter lighting, temperature, and other environmental parameters based on occupancy and consumption patterns, resulting in increased energy efficiency and lower operating costs. The growing trend towards smart cities, as well as the incorporation of smart technology into urban design, all contribute to increased demand for building automation systems.
Challenges - It is very difficult to integrate BAS with the current building infrastructure. Existing systems in many buildings, particularly those that are older, make them difficult to integrate with contemporary automation technologies. These buildings can be difficult and expensive to retrofit with modern BAS, as it will need to make considerable changes to the systems and structures that are already in place. Building owners are discouraged from pursuing automation upgrades due to the complexity of the project, which frequently results in longer project schedules and greater expenses. Furthermore, as disparate systems and devices could not communicate with one another smoothly, the absence of standardisation in BAS technologies might make integration efforts more challenging.
Impact of COVID-19 on United States Building Automation System Market
The Building Automation System (BAS) market in the United States was greatly affected by the Covid-19 outbreak. Building owners and operators moved to optimise their buildings' energy efficiency and cut expenses, which raised demand for building automation systems. This was due to the abrupt closure of non-essential enterprises and the widespread adoption of remote work. Furthermore, the pandemic raised the need for touchless technologies, like occupancy sensors and automated doors, which fuelled the expansion of BAS solutions. However, labour shortages and supply chain interruptions have delayed installations and construction projects, impeding the BAS market's expansion. Although the long-term impacts of the epidemic are yet unknown, it overall had both beneficial and bad effects on the BAS market in the United States.
