Solar-Powered UAV Market By Application (Agriculture and Environment, Media and Entertainment, Energy, Government, Construction, Others), By Mode Of Operation (Semi Autonomous, Autonomous), By Type (Fixed wing drones, Multirotor drones, Quadcopter drones), By Range (Less Than 300 KM, More Than 300 KM): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2025-2035
A drone or UAVs is an unmanned aerial vehicle which can fly autonomously or remotely (with the use of controller). An automated UAV increases efficiency by eliminating use of drone operator. However, the limited endurance limit of such conventional drones remained to be a major issue. Hence, solar-powered drones were developed, to increase the endurance limit of unmanned aerial vehicles. Solar-powered drones use photovoltaic panels to absorb sun’s energy and convert it to electrical energy which further be used to propel/operate the drone. The growth of the solar-powered UAV market is attributed to increase in application areas for drones, and heavy venture capital investments in R&D activities to develop drones with enhanced capabilities.
The solar-powered UAV market is segmented on basis of type, application, mode of operation, range, and region. By type, it is divided into fixed-wing drones, multirotor drones, and quadcopter drones. By application, it is segmented into agriculture & environment, media & entertainment, energy, government, construction, and others. By mode of operation, it is divided into semi-autonomous and autonomous. By range, the market is bifurcated into less than 300 KM and more than 300 KM. By region, the market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and LAMEA.
