$525 Mn Solar Generator Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2018-2023
Dublin, Jan. 08, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Solar Generator Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2018-2023" report has been added to *ResearchAndMarkets.com's* offering.
The global solar generator market reached a value of US$ 370 Million in 2017. The market is further projected to reach a value of US$ 525 Million by 2023, registering a CAGR of around 6% during 2018-2023.
Solar generator refers to a solar-based photovoltaic (PV) system which produces electricity from photonic energy of the sunlight. There are two types of solar generators, namely, on-grid and off-grid. They are available in different sizes and capacities based on the consumer's requirement. Solar generators are economical; require minimal cost investments and fuel for operation; generate zero pollution; and can store energy for future purposes. Owing to these factors, they are increasingly being used for the production and distribution of power across the globe.
One of the primary factors driving the market growth is the increasing shortage of electricity across the globe and the consequent demand for power-backup. Catalysed by population growth and increasing urbanisation levels, the demand of power has been showing an increasing trend over the last few decades. Moreover, across many regions, there is currently an imbalance between the supply and demand of power, ultimately leading to a power shortage.
Solar generators are currently playing an important role in reducing this shortage. Further, the market is also being influenced by the rising concerns about climatic change that has created an awareness concerning the usage of renewable resources like solar, hydro and wind power.
Moreover, governments across the globe are encouraging investments in renewable resources by providing tax relaxations and incentives. These investments have reduced the prices of solar generators, thereby facilitating the demand.
*Key Questions Answered in This Report:*· How has the global solar generator market performed so far and how will it perform in the coming years?
· What are the key regions in the global solar generator market?
· Which are the major types of solar generators?
· Who are the major end-users of solar generators?

HERE to power live traffic data for Audi in North America and Europe
Audi plans to switch on HERE Real-Time Traffic for its drivers. They will be the first to benefit from innovative features such as lane-level traffic conditions on arterial roads - especially useful when journeys include busy left turns and highway exit ramps
Las Vegas, CES 2019 - HERE Technologies today announced that it has been selected by Audi as its traffic data provider for all new models sold across North America and Europe, starting in the first half of 2019.
The multi-year agreement for the HERE Real-Time Traffic service will see HERE provide Audi with traffic data in these two regions for the first time, giving drivers up-to-the-minute information about road conditions and incidents. The agreement also extends to Volkswagen Group sister brands Bentley, Bugatti, Lamborghini and Porsche.
"This is a landmark win for HERE Technologies and underscores how far we've advanced our traffic service in the last three years," said Peter Kürpick, Chief Platform Officer at HERE Technologies. "Drivers will enjoy innovative features such as lane-level traffic flow and incident data as well as benefit from our sustained investment in quality. All parties competing for this contract were subjected to extensive ground truth testing of their data, and we're delighted to have come out on top. This is fantastic momentum as we further scale our traffic service to enhance driving enjoyment for millions."
Audi models shipping later in 2019 and beyond will benefit from several powerful new features from HERE. These will provide predictive traffic forecasts as well as information about lane closures and traffic flow for specific lanes on arterial roads, including high occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes.
Audi plans to enable HERE Real-Time Traffic not only for new models. In North America, all Audi vehicles already on the road and equipped with an active Audi Connect® subscription will benefit from the service. In Europe, selected models already on the road will benefit.
HERE Real-Time Traffic aggregates and analyzes data from a sophisticated mix of sources, including high-quality rich vehicle sensor data from competing automotive brands. The result is best-in-class accuracy in depiction of real-world traffic conditions, and a smarter and safer driving experience.

Global and China Automotive MLCC Market 2018-2023: The Market will Report Rmb19.053 Billion in 2023 (as compared With Rmb 6.044 Billion in 2017), Showing a CAGR of 21.1% Between 2017 and 2023
Dublin, Jan. 08, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Global and China Automotive MLCC Industry Report, 2018-2023" report has been added to *ResearchAndMarkets.com's* offering.
In the automotive sector, MLCC is generally used in power system, safety system, comfort system, entertainment system and so forth. That intelligent driving functions prevail in cars brings strong demand for MLCC. As the intelligentization, networking and electrification of vehicles is galloping, it is expected by industry insiders that MLCC use in cars will soar by folds. In the era of intelligent connected battery electric vehicle (BEV), a single vehicle requires as 6 times MLCCs as that for a current common internal combustion engine.
In recent years, electrification of cars is gathering momentum worldwide, and battery electric vehicle (BEV) output keeps soaring year after year, coupled with a steady rise in output of hybrids/PHEVs and smart fuel-efficient models as well as common internal combustion engines going intelligent, all of which serve as a spur to the demand for MLCC. As estimated, the Chinese market size of automotive MLCC will report RMB19.053 billion in 2023 (as compared with RMB6.044 billion in 2017), showing a CAGR of 21.1% between 2017 and 2023.
The well-known automotive MLCC vendors are mainly from Japan, South Korea, Europe & America, and Taiwan (China), of which Japanese companies consist of Murata, TDK, Taiyo Yuden, Kyocera, etc.; South Korean peer refers to Samsung Electro-Mechanics; and Taiwanese counterparts are Yageo and Walsin Technology.
Currently, Murata is the vendor boasting the most market shares worldwide (29%; about 40% in the automotive MLCC market), with the production capacity of 960 billion units/year for the moment. Murata has slashed production of low-end MLCC and related delivery has drawn to an end over the past two years. In 2018, Murata invested $660 million for expanding production of MLCC for medical and automotive use and mass-production is anticipated in 2019.
Samsung Electro-Mechanics has sprung up and has been in the second place worldwide since it outperformed Japan-based TDK in 2009. Impacted by the explosion of Samsung NOTE7, Samsung Electro-Mechanics has tightened control on the quality of products and cut shipments over the recent years, while it planned to invest the additional 10 billion units/month MLCC for cars and 5G products.
TDK canceled product orders involving 700 million MLCCs in 360 models in 2017, and has transferred to focus on medium- and high-end products.
Chinese MLCC vendors has been developing apace over the recent years but are still engaged in supply for consumer electronics. Few companies like Fenghua Advanced Technology have rolled out the products in line with AEC-Q200 criterion. Due to weak strength, Chinese players are still hard to pose a threat to the MLCC giants from Japan, South Korea and Taiwan (China).
*The report highlights the following:*
· MLCC industry overview (definition, classification, policies, etc.);
· Global and China MLCC markets (market size, production capacity, industrial chains, competitive landscape, etc.);
· Global and China automotive MLCC markets (market size, production capacity, competitive pattern, etc.);

Kitchener, Waterloo , Jan. 08, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

Through COS’s education programs, hospitals empower their nurses to continually improve quality of patient care, effectiveness and efficiency of the practice environment, and the quality of their lives.
“We want to offer our clients the most efficient and flexible solutions possible — so we chose D2L because Brightspace has the functionality we were looking for and D2L was the most innovative of the LMS companies we considered,” said Dr. Lynn Peoples, COS Co-Founder. “D2L is known to be an LMS industry powerhouse and industry innovator — and Brightspace’s cloud-based platform is exactly what we need to help us meet our flexibility and mobility needs. We are particularly excited about the launch of our New Graduate Residency Program which integrates new graduate registered nurses into hospitals.”
Specifically, D2L’s Brightspace platform will support COS’s six Guiding Principles:
· Evidenced-Based Curriculum – ease of content management and updating
· Maximum Flexibility & Mobility – multi-device responsiveness
· Cost-Effective Education – product support and server use
· Respect for the Adult Learner – flexibility and mobility
· Hospital-COS Partnership – ease of customization
· Availability of Real-Time Data – evidenced-based decision making
While COS is a new company, founded in 2018, its leadership has worked with more than 75 hospitals and healthcare systems across the United States. Their clients have included for-profit and not-for-profit organizations; small community hospitals and university systems; and urban and rural facilities. They have helped their clients develop and implement strategies that align clinical operations with the organization’s strategic vision, achieving sustainable quality and financial outcomes.
“Clinical Operation Solutions is excited to partner with D2L to help hospitals recruit, retain and develop expert nurses,” said Nina Green, COS Co-Founder. “The Brightspace learning platform will be key to providing programs that are cost-effective, client-customized, evidenced- based, and guided by expert nursing faculty that will encourage the registered nurse’s evolution from new graduate novice to expert nurse.”
