Today, smart technologies and sustainability are transforming how we live and work. Digital megatrends like AI and IoT are driving the adoption of smart home systems and connected buildings, enhancing personalized living experiences, and building management. Also, megatrends like urbanization and climate change are pushing the industry towards resilient and adaptable structures. 

What key strategic imperatives are driving this transformation in homes & buildings? 

• The Rise of Net-Zero Buildings: Sustainability goals are spurring the growth of net-zero energy buildings, necessitating energy-efficient technologies and designs. 

• Startups Upending Building Automation: Increased competition from startups is pressuring established players to form strategic partnerships and embrace new technologies. 

• Adapting to Energy-as-a-Service (EaaS): The EaaS model, which provides comprehensive energy solutions without upfront costs, is disrupting traditional energy management, compelling stakeholders to consider its adoption. 

Cities are responsible for approximately 70% of the world’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and are recognized as key players in the transition to a low-carbon economy. Air quality and emissions management solutions are thus gaining more traction in today’s business landscape. 

Here are a few growth opportunities identified in the air quality and emissions management industry: 

• Digital climate intelligence platforms are accelerating urban transitions to net-zero emissions. 

• Innovations disrupting the industry are real-time carbon tracking for cities, marine fleet carbon tracking, business carbon removal technologies, and AI-based digital twins using satellite imagery. 

• Using digital solutions to transform data into action, developing, and executing climate action plans, is turning challenges into business opportunities for the industry. 

Navigating water scarcity, regulations, and costs through sustainability megatrends is fuelling the water industry’s growth. Circular economy solutions, real-time monitoring systems, and data analytics optimizing water usage are further intensifying competition. This has led to industrial and irrigation water management witnessing a global push toward growth.  

As water demand increases due to the rising population, urbanization, and industrialization, the need for alternative and sustainable sources is becoming apparent. Demand for energy-efficient technologies and resource-saving solutions is pushing the residential, commercial, and institutional water solutions industry.
