Solar Powered Drones Market Overview
Market Drivers –
The rising military and defense investment is expected to propel the growth of the solar-powered drones market going forward. Military and defense spending refers to the financial resources dedicated by a state to raising and maintaining its armed forces, including the provision of weapons, equipment, and soldiers. Countries are increasing their military investments to discourage other countries from attacking, protect national security, and potentially prevent wars. The rising expenditure in military and defense enhances the development and deployment of solar-powered drones for reconnaissance, surveillance, and tactical operations, boosting their capabilities and innovation. For instance, in April 2023, according to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, a Sweden-based institute and independent resource on global security, world military expenditure increased by 3.7% in real terms in 2022 to reach a record high of $2,240 billion. Military expenditure in Europe rose by 13% during the year. US military spending also increased by 8.8% in nominal terms between 2021 and 2022, but real spending increased by 0.7% over that same time due to an 8.1% inflation rate. Therefore, rising military and defense spending is driving the growth of the solar powered drones market.
Market Trends –
Major companies operating in the solar-powered drones market are increasing their focus on developing advanced solutions, such as solar-powered stratospheric aircraft, to gain a competitive edge in the market. A solar-powered stratospheric aircraft is an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that is designed to fly in the stratosphere using solar power as its primary energy source, enabling long-endurance flights for high-altitude data collection and monitoring purposes. For instance, in April 2023, Kea Aerospace, a New Zealand-based tech company, launched the Kea Atmos Mk 1, the first solar-powered drone or stratospheric aircraft designed and built in the Southern Hemisphere. This has a wingspan of 12.5 meters, a weight under 40 kilograms, and the capability to fly at altitudes up to 50,000 feet. It offers long-endurance flight capabilities for months and high-altitude data collection, making it a game-changer in the solar-powered drones market for applications requiring extended, high-altitude data collection.
