The Market for Electronic Ballasts is Expected to Increase at an Annual Rate of 12.1% Till 2010.


DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c25005 ) has announced the addition of Global Electronic Ballast Markets: Technologies, Applications, Trends and Competitive Environment to their offering.

The 340-page, Fourth Edition of our report is an in-depth analysis of global markets for Electronic Ballasts quantifies the impact of changing environmental standards, emerging lighting technologies, and new applications on this large and diverse marketplace. Upcoming 2005 regulatory actions are expected to have a significant impact on the electronic ballast market, resulting in increased usage of electronic fluorescent, compact fluorescent, halogen and high-intensity discharge technologies. Emerging technologies such as light emitting diodes are dropping in price and capturing a larger share of markets ranging from architectural to automotive to traffic signals, and increasingly impinging on incandescent lamps.

This report provides geographic forecasts for Asia, Central & Latin America, Europe, North America and ROW. Forecasts are included by wattage and application for various lighting technologies including CCFL (Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp) Same as CCFT. , CFL CFL Canadian Football League , HID, Linear Fluorescent, LED, and Halogen. Forecasts are provided in Units, Dollars and Average Selling Price The average sales price of goods or commodities. Especially used in the retail sector and technology distribution.  trends. The report also includes an analysis of the competitive environment.

The electronic ballast market is dynamic, consisting of six different technologies and spanning a wide range of applications. While some of the technologies may share the same or similar applications, each technology stands on its own, with its own unique market drivers, trends and characteristics. Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamps (CCFLs), Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs), High-Intensity Discharge (HID) lamps, Linear Fluorescent, Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) and Halogens all compete complement one another within the $10 billion electronic ballast market.

Unit sales for ballasts will grow at an average annual rate of 12.1% from 2005 to 2010. Driving the growth within the industry are government regulations, advancements in technology, lower prices, increased consumer demand, as well as a number of other factors. Each technology has a different focal point leading the technology forward, as each technological segment is forecasted to experience both unit and revenue growth over the next five years. Although some segments could be threatened by the advancements of new technologies, LEDs specifically, each segment within the electronic ballast industry will remain strong over the period of the forecasts.

Summary

The electronic ballast market is dynamic, consisting of six different technologies and spanning a wide range of applications. While some of the technologies may share the same or similar applications, each technology stands on its own, with its own unique market, drivers, trends and characteristics. Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamps (CCFLs), Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs), High-Intensity Discharge (HID) lamps, Linear Fluorescent, Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) and Halogens all compete and complement one another within the $10 billion electronic ballast market.

Unit sales for ballasts will grow at an average annual rate of 12.1% from 2005 to 2010. Driving the growth within the industry are government regulations, advancement in technology, lower prices, increased consumer demand, as well as a number of other factors. Each technology has a different focal point leading the technology forward, as each technological segment is forecasted to experience both unit and revenue growth over the next five years. Although some segments could be threatened by the advancements of new technologies, LEDs specifically, each segment within the electronic ballast industry will remain strong over the period of the forecasts.

Regionally, regulations within North America and Europe will drive the Linear Fluorescent market towards electronic ballasts, as new sales of inefficient magnetic ballasts will be banned in 2005. These regulations will drive volume for Linear Fluorescents and create a greater price parity for Linear Fluorescents throughout the world. In addition, continued awareness of energy conservation, coupled with lower prices, have been driving the market for CFLs. The CFL market maintains the most unit volume for electronic ballasts, and has proven to be particularly successful within Europe and Asia.
