Building Commissioning Services Will Reach $4.4 Billion in Market Value by 2020, Forecasts Pike Research
BOULDER, Colo. --(Business Wire)--
Building commissioning services - which ensure that a commercial
building's equipment and control systems are performing as designed and
that there are procedures in place to maintain high performance over
time - have been offered for decades. Today, a surge in growth in
energy-efficient building design, along with the increased complexity of
construction projects, is accelerating demand for these services, which
include not only initial building commissioning, but also
recommissioning, retrocommissioning, and continuous commissioning.
According to a new report from Pike
Research, a part of Navigant's Energy Practice, the annual market
value of these services will double over the next eight years, growing
from $2.2 billion worldwide in 2012 to $4.4 billion in 2020.
"Commissioning helps building owners achieve the full value of their
investments in energy efficiency and green building technology," says
senior research analyst Eric Bloom. "Over time, software-as-a-service
models that offer continuous commissioning will become a more attractive
delivery model, ensuring that green buildings maintain top performance
well into the future."
Continuous commissioning, which monitors and provides fault detection
and diagnosis within a portfolio of buildings, is transforming the
hands-on commissioning business model into a software-based service,
according to the report. The advent of IT developers and systems
integrators with cloud-based continuous commissioning capabilities has
added new competitors to the traditional players in the industry. By
2020, continuous commissioning will still represent only about five
percent of the total worldwide market, in terms of revnue, but
continuous commissioning services will grow at a significantly faster
rate than other forms of commissioning.
The report, "Building
Optimization and Commissioning Services", examines the worldwide
market for building commission services, including initial

commissioning. Market drivers and barriers are explored in detail, along

Market forecasts, segmented by region and by type of commissioning, are
