The U.K. new energy vehicle TIC services market size is anticipated to reach USD 572.1 million by 2030, and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.3% from 2023 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Government policies and initiatives are key factors driving the growth of the market. The UK has made numerous efforts to address the critical issues of climate change, air quality, and sustainability. This commitment to environmental management is demonstrated by the robust government policies and initiatives introduced to promote the adoption of NEVs, which has contributed to the growth of the market.
The continuous growth of the NEV market, driven by the increasing consumer demand for electric and hybrid vehicles, provides a substantial opportunity for TIC (testing, inspection, and certification) service providers. As more NEVs enter the market, the need for comprehensive testing, inspection, and certification services is expected to increase. For instance, in November 2022, Wallace Instruments introduced its latest innovation, the WAC11 Mk5 Compression Stress Relaxometer. This new equipment is considered a critical industry standard and is utilized in various industries and sectors, including automotive, construction, aerospace, energy, and utilities. Primary purpose of this equipment is to assess the ability of elastomer seals to maintain their resilience when subject to sustained compression under varying environmental conditions.
As NEVs become more connected and data-dependent, data security and cybersecurity concerns are expected to increase. The demand for TIC services that evaluate and certify the security of in-vehicle systems and data protection measures offers substantial growth potential. With the increasing complexity of NEVs, TIC service providers can offer predictive maintenance services. These services help manufacturers identify and address potential issues in their vehicles, enhancing long-term customer satisfaction and retention.
