The Global Tunnel Automation Market is anticipated to reach USD 6.2 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 7.7% during the forecast period from 2022 to 2030. Government regulations, increasing traffic accidents, and the growing integration of IoT and cloud with tunnel automation technologies are propelling the market. The growing number of tunnel building projects, as well as the incorporation of analytics into tunnel management, are likely to generate significant growth prospects for market participants.

 

Market Overview

A tunnel contains a large number of ventilation systems, lighting systems, and speed limit indications, among other things, all of which demand a large amount of power and must be managed successfully and efficiently in order to control traffic. Any flaw in the operation of any system, or any malfunction in the power supply, might result in serious mishaps. As a result, tunnel system automation is the best alternative for avoiding such unfortunate accidents. Tunnels make it easier to transport things, cars, and products swiftly, but at a higher cost and risk. Tunnel automation can save money by reducing human labor and utilizing renewable energy sources. Tunnel automation is supposed to improve safety by creating an optimum environment for speedy mobility. Tight government rules, an increase in traffic accidents, a strong need for greater security, and the rising integration of cloud computing technologies and IoT into tunnel automation solutions are the primary factors pushing tunnel automation adoption.

Driving Factors

The various government regulations encouraging the use of tunnel automation solutions are also fueling the growth of the tunnel automation market. The growing integration of IOT and cloud with tunnel automation solutions are also boosting the market growth. Furthermore, an increasing number of accidents as well as an increasing number of project allocations, and outdated railway tunnels, are acting as active growth drivers in the tunnel automation market. In addition, growing connectivity and established IT services, as well as ever-increasing connectivity and based IT services, are boosting the growth of the tunnel automation market during the period of forecasting.

 

Restraining Factors

The main disadvantage is the high initial investment. Tunnel automation is expensive to develop, difficult to transport, and necessitates extensive backup systems and electricity. Huge boulders and stones can hinder the drive. The tunnel service operations of all underground automated solutions necessitate a skilled workforce with technical knowledge of the machine's operation, and a lack of the necessary manpower impedes product sales, limiting market value.

 

Market Segmentation

 

The Global Tunnel Automation Market share is categorized into component, tunnel type, and offering.

 

• The HVAC segment is expected to hold the largest share of the market during the forecast period.

Based on the component, the global tunnel automation market is differentiated into HVAC, lighting & power supply, and signalization. Among these, the HVAC segment is estimated to hold the largest share of the market during the study period. This market's growth can be contributed to the absolute necessity of providing forced ventilation inside tunnel enclosures, as tunnel enclosures have limited access from the outside and no natural ventilation. An HVAC system inside a tunnel performs several functions, including supplying fresh air to passengers and workers, removing harmful gases, removing heat generated by metro and train subcomponents, preventing humidity formation via water seepage and body sweat, as well as vapour and fume removal from water coolers, lighting, and escalators, among other things.

 

• The railway tunnels dominate the market and are anticipated to grow at a rapid CAGR in terms of revenue during the study period.

Based on the tunnel type, the global tunnel automation market is classified into railway tunnels, highway and roadway tunnels. Among these, railway tunnels segment dominate the market and are estimated to grow at a rapid CAGR in terms of revenue during the projected period. Increasing project allocation, as well as an increase in the number of accidents in railway tunnels, are expected to drive market growth during the forecast period. Growing renovation activities in older railway tunnels in developing countries are also propelling the market growth.

 

• The Service offering segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the predicted period.

Based on the offering, the global tunnel automation market is categorized into hardware, software, and services. Among these, the service segment is anticipated to grow at the highest CAGR during the predicted period. The service segment is driven by the frequent installation and replacement of HVAC, electrical and lighting, firefighting, and other systems in tunnels. Growing engineering and design, project planning, and scheduled maintenance services are some of the primary drivers behind the expansion of the services segment market.
