WELLINGBOROUGH, United Kingdom — According to a new report by IMS Research, the building automation controllers, software, and sensors market in the Americas totaled $1.7 billion last year. The report finds that companies are increasingly improving the energy efficiency of their buildings by using building automation systems.
“Whilst the construction market has faltered through the tough economic climate, IMS Research forecasts the building automation market to outpace construction market forecasts as business and governments alike look to improve the efficiency of their buildings,” said William Rhodes, market analyst at IMS Research.
