Government Push for Electric Buses Driving Italian Electric Bus Charging Station Market
U.K. Electric Bus Charging Station Market Witnessing Growth due to Rising Popularity of Electric Buses
Based on type, the classifications of the U.K. electric bus charging station market are opportunity and overnight chargers. In 2018, with more than 95.0% sales volume, the market was led by overnight chargers due to their popularity among public and private transport agencies for charging buses overnight as these buses have larger batteries to operate over longer distances. Further, the falling prices of batteries have also contributed in their demand as they are now competitively priced with opportunity charging buses.
On the basis of power, the U.K. electric bus charging station market is categorized into <50 kW, 50–150 kW, and >150 kW. The largest market share in 2018 was held by the <50 kW category. The main reason behind the popularity of these chargers was their cost compared to chargers of higher power ranges. In the forecast period, the highest CAGR is projected to be witnessed by the >150 kW category. This can be credited to the rising demand for larger batteries, which would take longer to charge, thereby driving the demand for more powerful chargers.
The U.K. electric bus charging station market is observing the trend of increasing procurement of overnight charging buses. Battery-run electric buses are presently available in two models — buses meant for short range travel with a smaller battery, and an extended-range bus with a larger battery, which gets charged overnight. Buses with larger battery were more in demand as they have similar operational characteristics to diesel buses. Previously, being equipped with larger batteries, overnight charging buses were costlier than opportunity charging buses; the reduction in battery prices in recent years have further contributed to their popularity.
The U.K. electric bus charging station market is witnessing growth due the rising number of electric buses in the public transport fleet, which is mainly being supported by the government. Buses procured by the government are deployed for various purposes, such as military, transit, and public transport. Further, at the local level, electric buses are being integrated into the public transportation system, as the country is strongly committed to curbing vehicular pollution. For instance, in the U.K., approximately 4.0% of newly procured buses in 2018 were engineered to produce no emissions.
The major opportunity for growth for the U.K. electric bus charging station market lies in the surging demand for wireless charging of electric buses. Even though the initial installation cost of wireless charging infrastructure is high, these charging systems are becoming popular among users. A depot charger takes about 4–8 hours for charging the battery of an electric bus, whereas a conductive charger only takes 5–7 minutes to charge the same battery. This particular type of charger uses cordless technique and can effectively decrease the off-road time while traveling.
Therefore, the market for electric bus charging station in the country is headed toward a bright future in the forecast period amidst rising environmental concerns.
Rising Demand for Electric Vehicles Driving Electric Vehicle Component Market
Auto-Injectors Market to Grow due to Rising Prevalence of Anaphylaxis
These days, people are becoming more and more inclined
toward home healthcare, especially elderly people. Home healthcare allows one
to get better in a more comfortable and convenient way. The need for revisiting
hospitals frequently for treatment is reduced significantly, and the patient is
able to improve or maintain his/her condition in a more independent way. Attributed
to these reasons, manufacturers across the globe are increasingly focusing on
developing medical equipment which is patient-compliant and user-friendly.
Moreover, due to the enhancing medical services at the bed side, the
point-of-care medication administration is also increasing.

One of the major developments in this scenario is that of
auto-injectors, which are pen-like medical devices utilized for injecting a
specific dose of drugs into the patient. These spring-loaded syringes are
especially designed for the safe administration of drugs with ease.
Auto-injectors further aid in reducing medication errors and increasing safety.
It is due to these advantages of auto-injectors over traditional devices that
the auto-injectors market is expected
to register a significant growth in the coming years. Prefilled and fillable
are two types of auto-injectors, which are available in the market currently;
between these, prefilled auto-injectors were more in demand in the past.
In terms of manufacturing design, auto-injectors are further of two types, namely standardized and customized. In the past, standardized auto-injectors were used more, as they are designed to be assembled with ease and help in the self-administration of drugs, without altering the primary packaging, by making use of automated pathways, thereby reducing the chances of accidental injuries or dosage errors. Auto-injectors are used in the management of several diseases, such as multiple sclerosis, anaphylaxis, and rheumatoid arthritis. Among all these, anaphylaxis has been the largest application area of auto-injectors in the past.
Hence, the need for auto-injectors is rising because of the
increasing prevalence of anaphylaxis and preference for home healthcare.
Asia Tire Market Business Revenue Forecast
Furthermore, commercial vehicles are expected to witness notable growth in their sales on account of their growing usage in logistics and construction activities. This, in turn, would propel the demand for tires for light, medium, and heavy commercial vehicles, and hence boost the APAC automotive tire market.
Growing Popularity of Next-Generation, High-Performance Tires is a Key Trend Witnessed in the Market
Growing popularity of next-generation, high-performance tires is the key trend observed in the APAC automotive tire market. The fuel-efficient and low-noise high-performance tires have been mainly used in luxury passenger cars; and in recent years, they have made inroads in crossover utility vehicle and premium sport utility vehicle segments. The mainstream adoption of these tires is encouraging tire makers, across the world, to invest in new technologies for the development of ultra-high-performance tires to increase speed and overall performance of tires. Many manufacturers are developing these tires by employing patented technologies, specialized silica compounds and polymers, and unique tread designs to meet changing consumer demands and achieve desired performance. In addition, with increasing tire demand, several tire manufacturers are offering next-generation, high-performance tires with ride comfort, all-season or multi-season driving capacities, and less tread wear.
Competitive Landscape of the APAC Automotive Tire Market
The APAC automotive tire market is consolidated in nature, with the existence of established manufacturers such as The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company, Continental AG, Pirelli & C. S.p.A., Cooper Tire & Rubber Company, Michelin Asia-Pacific Pte. Ltd., Yokohama Rubber Co. Ltd., Bridgestone Asia Pacific Pte. Ltd., Hankook Technology Group Co. Ltd., Apollo Tyres Ltd., Nokian Renkaat Oyj, and Sumitomo Rubber Industries Ltd.
Collaborations and acquisitions and facility expansions are key strategies adopted by the players to increase their foothold in the APAC automotive tire market. For instance, in August 2018, Continental AG announced its plans to acquire the Kmart Tyre and Auto Service (KTAS) chain for approximately $244 million. With 258 branches and more than 1,200 employees, KTAS is one of the largest tire and auto service chains in Australia. The acquisition is part of the company’s Vision 2025, which targets systematic expansion of its tire division across the world.
