According to a new report published by Prudent Markets, titled, "Electrochromic Glass Market by Application and End-use Industry: Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2019-2026," global electrochromic glass market was valued at $1.2 billion in 2018 and is projected to reach $4.1 billion by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 17.2% from 2019 to 2026. 

Electrochromic glass is a switchable glass whose light transmission property is altered when voltage is passed through it. Electrochromic glass offers energy conservation and restricts heat to enter into a room. Growing use of electrochromic glass in buildings is expected to drive the growth of the market. Furthermore, electrochromic glass has found its usage in the automotive sector, where it is utilized in car windows and windscreens, which further propels the market growth. 

Installing electrochromic glasses help houses and buildings save on heating and cooling costs, which is a major contributor to the global carbon footprint. According to the Environmental and Energy Study Institute (EESI), U.S., 40% of energy in the U.S. is used in lighting, heating, cooling, and appliance operation.  Conserving energy is anticipated to ease the load on energy production companies. Hence, in an effort to conserve energy, state agencies set annual energy targets and collaborate with companies to develop technological solutions. The efforts include developing new cost-effective technologies that could reduce the energy used by homes and buildings. All the aforementioned factors are likely to impact the growth of the global electrochromic glass market during the forecast period.
