Cleverer smart windows grow $6.5 billion market
The IDTechEx report, Electrically Active Smart Glass and Windows 2018-2028 observes that electrically active see-through glass is an idea whose time has come. It powers the megatrend of structural electronics instead of the tired old components-in-a-box designs and replaces drapes and ugly solar panels that are an afterthought. It saves space, weight and cost while improving reliability, ruggedness and life of electrics, electronics and active op...
Airborne wind energy: electricity from kites and drones comes to market
This webinar will share research recently carried out for the new IDTechEx report, Airborne Wind Energy (AWE) 2017-2027. Tethered kites and aircraft and the like can produce electricity from the stronger and more consistent winds higher than those reached by conventional wind turbines.
Report details the conductive inks and paste market

Energy Storage Innovations Europe 2017
The field of battery energy storage is set to grow significantly over the coming years. The question that incumbents, raw materials suppliers, end users, and innovators are all asking themselves is whether Li-ion batteries (LIB) will keep the lion’s share of the market, or whether disruptive innovation will drive technology diversification according to applications.
Is it time to move on from wearables?
The hype around wearable technology is all but over. Whilst new wearable technology products have generated billions of dollars in new revenue in just a few years, the hype was too much to live up to for many at the core of the sector.
IDTechEx Research announces report on TCF
The transparent conductive film (TCF) industry will leave behind its years of sluggish growth to achieve rapid growth, serving a size of more than 60 million sqm per year (glass based layers excluded). Indeed, this industry is entering a new phase. Some ITO alternatives have matured, receiving increasing market adoption. In their report, TCF 2017-2027: Forecasts, Markets, Technologies, IDTechEx Research finds that ITO alternative TCFs will become...
Exploring the ambitions from Electric & Hybrid Vehicle Conference
A strong focus at the Electric & Hybrid Vehicle Conference which took place this week (4th-6th April) in Sindelfingen was 48V mild hybrids.The consensus is that the industry is quickly moving beyond the opening shots that can reduce carbon dioxide by up to 14%. These tend to involve belt starter generator BSG, no electric drive modes, PO/1 positioning on engine, 480Wh 48V battery and 12kV supplied. This was described as little more than an up...
