Global Market for Powered Smart Cards to Reach $8.5 Billion by
2019; Printed Electronics Enable $6.2 billion in Product Sales by
2017
FARMINGTON, Conn., Nov. 12, 2012 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Transparent
conductors are an essential invention; they enable the touch screen
technology smartphone users rely on to operate their mobile
devices. As transparent conductor technology continues to generate
revenues for the global market for displays, printed electronics
will also contribute significant returns for the displays market.
Meanwhile, smartcards powered by printed batteries and equipped
with printed displays are changing the e-commerce and payments
scene as they provide enhance security for eBay and MasterCard
accounts.

Global Information Inc (GII) in partnership with premium market
research publisher NanoMarkets, presents three excellent market
research reports covering the global markets for powered smart
cards, transparent conductors, and printed electronics.
Powered Smart Card Markets- 2012
The new report estimates that the global market for powered
smart cards will grow from its current value of about $70 million today to about $8.5 billion (USD) by the year 2019, which
corresponds to over 1.8 billion powered smart cards shipped. Within
this same time period, the value of thin film and/or printed
batteries for such smart cards will grow from just over
$7.5 million today to $365 million in 2019, and the value of small
information displays used in powered smart cards with grow from
about $7 million today to over
$715 million.
Other key findings from the report include: the biggest market
for powered smart cards will be OTP cards, which will grow from a
value of about $10.5 million in 2012
to nearly $1.4 billion in 2019;
Printed batteries such as those marketed by Solicore will remain
the dominant battery type used in powered smart cards. The market
value for such printed batteries will surpass $331 million by the end of the forecast period in
2019; and Asia will represent a
key growth region for powered smart cards. Today, Asia accounts for less than one percent of the
overall powered smart card market, but by 2019 will account for
nearly half, or almost $850
million.

Transparent Conductor Markets – 2012
Today most firms offering alternatives to ITO focus on the
touch-screen sensor market but this sector is too small for many of
these firms to generate significant revenues. Instead, NanoMarkets
believes that the current rapid development of the OLED display and
lighting market looks as if it will give a big boost to the makers
of non-ITO TCs. While ITO is widely used in OLEDs it is not well
suited to this application and the OLED sector is already beginning
to seek alternative TCs.
Likewise with flexible displays. ITO may not work well for
high-throughput R2R processes and one could never use ITO in a
rollable display. There are good reasons to suppose that flexible
displays will become a sizable market so this could be a major
factor in the mainstreaming of non-ITO TCs.
In this report, NanoMarkets provides in-depth analysis of the
applications from which TC firms will be able to make money in the
next few years including touch-screens, OLEDs, e-paper, thin-film
and building-integrated PV (BIPV), organic/DSC PV, smart windows,
etc. The report examines implications for TCs of the rise of
flexible and transparent electronics and provides an in-depth
discussion of how non-ITO TCs may be able to break into the LCD
market. For each application the report contains separate
eight-year forecasts in terms of value ($ millions) and volume
(square meters). Each forecast is also broken out by material
type.

Printed Electronics Version 3.0: A Market Forecast
NanoMarkets sees the global market for printed displays taking a
great leap forward as some of the many attempts to solution process
OLEDs become successful. According to this report, revenues from
PE-enabled products will reach $6.2
billion by 2017. Two of the most significant PE components
in terms of revenue will be displays and batteries. Together, they
are expected to produce more than $1.8
billion in revenues in 2017.
The report quantifies these opportunities in terms of revenues
generated by PE V3.0 at three levels of the value chain. In
addition, to an eight-year forecast of PE-enabled products, the
report also contains projections of PE components and specialist
inks. The components covered are thin-film transistors, memories,
batteries, sensors, displays and lighting. The organizations
discussed include: Agilent, Bank of America, Bemis, DuPont Teijin,
eBay, E Ink, Enfucell, Esquire Magazine, Fujifilm Dimatix, GE,
Gemalto, HelioVolt, Holst Centre, ISET, Jenn Feng, Kovio, MasterCard, Merck, Mitsubishi,
Panasonic, Nanosolar, Oxford Photovoltaics, PARC, Pioneer, PolyIC,
PragmaticIC, Pragmatic Printing, Plastic Logic, Printed Electronics
Limited, Qolpac, Samsung, Seiko
Epson, SolarPrint, Sumitomo, Thin Film Electronics, Tokyo
Electron, and UDC.
