Overview of the marine electric vehicles market
Technavio’s market research analyst predicts the global marine electric vehicles market to grow stupendously at an impressive CAGR of more than 9% during the forecast period. The growing demand for electric unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs) has been a key growth driver for this market. UUVs have extensive applications in maritime operations like off-shore hydrocarbon extraction, detailed mapping of the ocean floor, and scientific research. Moreover, UUVs are fitted with high-definition cameras that efficiently transmit data from the UUV to the operator. With better /images and improved control of the vehicle, a better inspection of the underwater environment is possible. The increasing activities related to seabed mapping from oil and gas and defense sectors will propel the market for marine electric vehicles during the forecast period.
In this industry research report, the analysts have estimated factors like the growing adoption of electric vehicles is expected to spur the growth of this market in the coming years. Electric vehicles offer numerous benefits to the operator such as cost saving over product lifecycle, reduced pollution, increased durability, and low maintenance. This recent shift in preference for the hybrid electric boat from diesel-powered boats is expected to bolster this market’s growth until the end of 2020.
