Market research analysts at Technavio predict that the global intelligent I/O modules market will grow steadily at a CAGR of over 6% by 2021. This market research analysis identifies the adoption of smart grid technology by the power industry as one of the primary growth factors for this market. Smart grid technology is basically used to detect and react to the local changes across the electricity supply network using digital communications technology. To reduce power outages and CO2 emissions, governments of countries such as the US have already focusing on the adoption of smart grid technology. This will lead to the increased usage of intelligent I/O modules, which will subsequently drive the growth of the intelligent I/O modules market.
The increasing use of wireless intelligent I/O modules with cloud connectivity is one of the latest trends that will gain traction in the intelligent I/O modules market in the coming years. To ensure the ease of interoperability between field devices, wireless intelligent I/O modules are equipped with high-speed data transfer standards set by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). Additionally, these modules also reduce cabling costs and enable easier deployment as they can collect information from third-party sensors and connect to the existing network.
The intelligent I/O modules market is fragmented with the presence of several local, regional, and international players. The lack of product differentiation in the intelligent I/O modules makes the competition intense among companies. The vendors mainly focus on developing products specific to the industry as these modules are used for special purposes.
The leading vendors in the market are -
The other prominent vendors in the market include Acromag, Beckhoff Automation, Eaton, Festo, GE, Mitsubishi Electric, OMRON, Turck Automation, WAGO, and Yokogawa.
During 2016, the power industry accounted for the major shares of this global market. The transition of traditional grid technology to smart grid technology in EMEA and the Americas is aiding the growth of this market segment. The rising focus of countries such as Malaysia, Japan, Thailand, Singapore, China, and South Korea towards the deployment of smart grids due to the increasing usage of electricity is also contributing to the growth of this industry segment.
This market study estimates that in terms of geographic regions, EMEA will be the major revenue contributor to the market by 2021. The rising investments towards converting traditional grid technology to smart grid technology is a major factor driving the growth of the intelligent I/O modules market in this region.
