Introduction of the Utility Drones Market

Drone is an unmanned aerial vehicle capable of traveling varying heights and distance. It can be equipped with a variety of devices, including cameras, Global Positioning Systems (GPS), navigation systems, sensors, software and hardware. They are used for different purposes such as monitoring delivery systems; checking power lines, pipelines, solar panels and wind turbines; safe and efficient inspections; and more accurate data collection across the energy industry.

Key Players of the Global Utility Drones Market:

· Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd.

· Sterblue

· SkyScape Industries

· Sharper Shape

· PrecisionHawk

· ULC Robotics

· Cyberhawk

· Aerodyne Group

· Delair

· Terra Drone Corporation

Utility Drones Market Dynamics (including market size, share, trends, forecast, growth, forecast, and industry analysis)

The augmenting awareness towards facilities of power supply security, increasing demand for renewable energy sources, and the expansion in the power sectors are the drivers accelerating the growth of the global utility drones market. Also, growth in the usage of unmanned utility drones compared to the manned aircraft utility drones because of the better aerial utility inspections, minimized service disruption, higher quality data collection, improved safety and security, decreased survey cost will further strengthen the utility drones market share.

Also, the rising incorporation of machine learning, edge computing, and artificial intelligence with drones help quickly scan thousands of images, better upfront data collection, avoid collision through on-board collision avoidance in the utility infrastructure, which will further boost the market growth. As per the International Renewable Energy Agency (IREA), the global share of renewable energy in the power sector is predicted to rise from 25% in 2017 to 85% by 2050, largely through growth in solar and wind power generation, enhanced approaches to power system planning, and regulation and public policy. This will provide enormous growth opportunities for the market.

However, stringent norms associated with the airspace across several countries will hinder market growth. For example, the US Drone Laws, by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), which includes flying drones at the maximum height of 400 feet without any specific authorization, registration of drone if it weighs more than 250g; not to fly in prohibited airspace, and other regulations may curb the utility drones market size. Additionally, rising concerns about terror and illegal activities carried out by UAV and limited battery backup for being in the air may further constrain the industry
