These Connected Communities may communicate with the electrical grid to optimize their energy consumption, lowering carbon emissions and energy prices.
- However, the challenges in designing compact transient protection devices with enhanced protection levels will likely restrain the market's growth. For example, high functional transient protection devices include numerous components that must be placed in parallel arrays in the circuit. Individual suppression components may have to endure greater energy than the adjacent due to poor mechanical design, and this is causing fluctuations in the performance level between the theoretical model and real devices.
- Moreover, the COVID-19 pandemic also has had a negative impact on the Transient Protection Device market's growth by severely impacting the supply for the device production. Further, due to a lack of site access and deficiencies in raw materials, manufacturers of various electronic components, including transient protection devices, faced short-term operational challenges.
Transient Protection Device Market Trends

- According to Asian Development Bank, about half of the population in the countries making up the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) live in urban areas, and 70 million more people are expected to become urban dwellers by 2025. Hence, the ASEAN Sustainable Urbanization Strategy recognizes technological advancements such as smart city projects and smart buildings as a solution to tackle these urbanization challenges. These initiatives are supported by international investments, which the OECD estimates will total around USD 1.8 trillion for all urban city infrastructure projects between 2010 and 2030. The demand is anticipated to be driven by the investment in digitized infrastructure, which would increase the need for asset security.
- A broad variety of interconnected automatic systems such as temperature control, multimedia systems, telecommunications, and security systems are used in smart buildings that are particularly sensitive to the effects of thunderstorms and lighting. As a result, any transient that enters the structure, not only through the power supply lines but also through the data lines, might harm a wide range of sensitive electronic equipment, including computers, alarm systems, transducers, PLCs, and audio-visual equipment. Networked components, on the other hand, are particularly vulnerable to lightning strikes and transients in general since they rely on a continual supply of power and data for their continued functioning and availability.
- Moreover, failure of equipment in a smart building could bring all interconnected systems to a halt, resulting in the breakdown of buildings and work environments, as well as the related expenses. These all can be eliminated or can be reduced by integrating powerful transient protection devices into the systems. Transient protection devices are also used in power management for smart equipment used in smart buildings.
