Drones in Power - Thematic Research
Summary
Drones are unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) capable of flying remotely or autonomously through software-controlled flight plans embedded in their system. The increasing trend of drones equipped with light detection and ranging (LiDAR) technology has added to the growth of the drone market in the energy sector. LiDAR technology can generate highly detailed 3D maps of infrastructure, allowing for more accurate inspection. Commercial drones will be the largest revenue contributor to the overall drones market by 2025, surpassing military drones. It is estimated to reach $57 billion by 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 32.6% for the period 2020 - 2030.
