Global Lightning Protection Technologies (LPT) Market Report 2021: Growth in Smart Home Numbers Drive the Need for Lightning Protection Solutions

Dublin, March 11, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Lightning Protection Technologies (LPT) - Global Market Trajectory & Analytics" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The Pandemic Strikes an Unprecedented Lightning Blow to Lightning Protection Technologies. Market Slumps by -7.1%.

The global market for Lightning Protection Technologies is expected to decline by -7.1% in the year 2020 before recovering to reach US$ 1.1 billion by the year 2027, trailing a post COVID-19 CAGR of 4.8% over the analysis period 2020 through 2027.

Postponements of Infrastructure development projects have come as a heavy blow for building material manufacturers and suppliers. Transport restrictions have additionally played their role in disrupting production and supply of construction materials. Real estate, both commercial & residential, is collapsing under the weight of falling consumer disposable incomes and plummeting business confidence.

Lightning protection devices such as lightning arrester rod and lightning conductor which are installed on buildings to protect against voltage surges are therefore feeling the heat of disruptions consuming the construction industry. While the healthcare industry is likely to deliver a decent performance, lack of tax rebates for retrofit installations is expected to reduce investment in retrofit installations in industry and commercial verticals.

Lightning strikes hold negative economic implications owing to their impact on facilities and other structures, leading to heavy disruptions and losses. The Earth experiences around 100 lightning strikes per second, which culminates into over eight million strikes per day. The US witnesses around 25 million incidents of lightning strike a year.

The annual loss associated with unplanned downtime for the major businesses in the US has been estimated at $2.5 billion, which is considerably higher than deployment cost of lightning protection systems. The impact of lightning strikes increases sharply when the cost to small- to medium-sized businesses is also included. The overall cost related to lightning strikes to US property and industry is projected to be around 8-10 billion per year.

The US economy and industry relies heavily on the electronic and telecommunication infrastructure. However, these digital assets and infrastructure are susceptible to the damage caused by lightning or transient currents. The increasing incident of these strikes along with heavy economic consequences creates the need to properly absorb or control lightning strikes.

There are advanced technologies to offer effective protection for facilities and buildings from lightning strikes. The integration of sophisticated technologies for potential equalization, grounding, surge protection, lightning warning and structural lightning protection can reduce the damage and save billions of dollars per year.
