Commercial Airport Lighting Market – Trends and Forecasts by Technavio

October 18, 2017

LONDON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#Lighting–Technavio’s latest report on the global
commercial airport lighting market provides an analysis of
the most important trends expected to impact the market outlook from
2017-2021. Technavio
defines an emerging trend as a factor that has the potential to
significantly impact the market and contribute to its growth or decline.

The global commercial airport lighting market is expected to see a
significant increase in the YoY growth rate due to the rising number of
airports being constructed, particularly in North America and APAC. In
addition, a number of existing airports are being renovated, further
driving the growth of the market. Tourism is one of the major categories
under the services sector. With the tourism industry seeing growth in
countries worldwide, the need for airports to support this growth will
also increase. With airfares showing a downward trend over the past few
years, the demand for air travel has also grown exponentially.

Raghu Raj Singh, a lead analyst from Technavio, specializing in research
on lighting
sector, says, “Airports are increasingly installing new equipment and
lighting systems that will allow a reduction in their operational costs.
Although the initial investments required for these lighting systems can
turn out to be higher than traditional systems, the installation will
result in a higher ROI in the future. This is leading more companies to
integrate such products during the construction of airports.”

Evolution of technologies to monitor airport lighting systems

A major trend identified by Technavio is the growth of technologies that
monitor airport lighting systems. Airport lighting systems include the
airfield, terminal, and landside sections. A major development is the
increasing use of automated measurement and adjustment of lighting
parameters. Such technologies are being integrated with lighting systems
for drivers to adjust to sudden changes, such as brightness.

“Dubai Airport in the UAE is focusing on investments toward the
integration of smart lighting systems in tunnels, which will help
drivers adapt gradually to the contrast between the brightness outside
and the darkness inside the tunnel. This is necessary for regions such
as the Middle East as, on exiting the tunnel, most drivers are blinded
by bright sunlight during the daytime, resulting in a temporary loss of
sight,” according to Raghu.

Adoption of solar LED lights

Solar-powered LED lights capture solar energy through photovoltaic
cells. These cells absorb solar energy during the daytime. The solar
energy is then converted into electrical energy, which runs the LEDs in
the nighttime. The use of solar-powered LED lights for commercial
airport lighting is an important trend identified by Technavio.
Solar power is a renewable source of energy, which means it is pollution
free.

Solar-powered LEDs can be used in taxiway, terminal, and runway lights.
In July 2017, Hyderabad International Airport in India announced that it
had replaced all of its taxiway lightings with LEDs. The airport has
also begun an initiative to install a 5MW solar power plant to meet the
airport’s energy requirements. In May 2017, Bangalore International
Airport in India inaugurated solar farms on the airport premises.

Deployment of NB-IoT to develop smart airports

A major trend identified by Technavio is the deployment of narrowband
Internet of Things (NB-IoT) to develop smart airports. NB-IoT is a low
power wide area (LPWA) technology. It allows the connection of several
devices across cellular telecommunication bands. NB-IoT is a low power
technology because its use is focused on applications and devices that
operate at lower data rates.

The use of NB-IoT in airports will allow effective coordination across
several stakeholders such as airport officials, staff, and passengers.
NB-IoT can also be deployed for optimizing several operations such as
traffic control in airport premises, monitoring of carbon dioxide
levels, and detection of filled garbage cans.

The key vendors are as follows:

ADB SAFEGATE

Avlite Systems
Eaton
General Electric
