Country Industry Forecast - Chinese Building Technologies Industry
Frost & Sullivan, Nov 2009, Pages: 67
This Frost & Sullivan Building Technologies Country Industry Forecast service provides vital inputs for evaluating the attractiveness of a country and its building technologies industry. Besides enabling decision makers to assess the impact of non-market forces, it also helps in identifying new market opportunities. This service provides a strong base for preparing contingency plans. In addition, investors can assess industry-specific risk factors as well as conduct a more in-depth micro research.
Traditionally, the growth of the building technologies industry had depended on developed countries; however, with the saturation of those markets, the developing countries have taken the driver’s seat. The accelerated rates of urbanization and building construction activities in countries of the Asia Pacific is responsible for the substantial potential for building technologies in that region. In Latin America, especially Mexico and Argentina, building construction has got a boost with the recent recovery from the social unrest and economic downturn of the early 2000s. Investment in infrastructure projects has also been listed high on the agenda of African and the Middle East countries due to the exceptional increase in the standard of living, per capita income, and construction spending. These conditions are conducive to the progress of the building technologies industry. The political establishment plays a critical role in prioritizing the industry in the development policy of a country. General economic policies greatly impact this demand-driven industry and industry-specific policies, wherever effectively enforced, provide added impetus. The economy of the country also plays a huge role in strengthening the industry with effective trade ties and inflows of foreign direct investment (FDI). The social, infrastructural, and labor developments of the country provide ample support as well.
In China, investments in infrastructure development and the need for energy efficiency has spurred the proliferation of intelligent and green buildings. Construction, design standards, and energy labeling programs are driving the consumption of energy-efficient appliances and building products such as heating, ventilation, air-conditioning, and refrigeration (HVAC & R) and compact fluorescent lamps. The building automation system (BAS), in particular, is experiencing vast changes, with technological advancements enabling it to better integrate aspects of interoperability, energy-efficiency, and real-time monitoring facilities. Industry participants are increasingly identifying fresh opportunities in performance contracting and energy management services. In addition, there are laws mandating the use of fire protection equipment, energy-efficient lighting systems, air conditioners, and refrigeration in many new and existing residential and commercial buildings.
Currently, intelligent buildings in China are driven not only by technological developments but also robust policy support such as design standards and the emphasis on energy efficiency in five-year plans. These legislations are driving the need for integrated technology as well as intelligent and green buildings. In addition, the ‘Energy Efficiency in Existing Buildings’ (EEEB) Project (2006-2010), which is a technical collaboration between the Chinese and German Governments, aims at reducing energy consumption in buildings through the propagation of advanced technologies and energy-efficient solutions from Germany to existing buildings in China. Just like any other country, China too has witnessed the evolution of BAS from pneumatic transmissions, multiplex control systems, and proprietary controls to open platforms that integrate all building services into a single IT platform. The evolution of interoperability features of control networking technologies {Building Automation and Control Networking Protocol (BACnet) or LONWorks} can be particularly witnessed in developed cities in western parts of China and large government buildings in Shanghai and Beijing.
