The Advancements In Autonomous Ships: Navigating The Waters Of The Future

Autonomous ships market set to reach $165.61 billion, 6.8% CAGR during 2021-2030

PORTLAND, OREGON, UNITED STATES, April 3, 2023 /einpresswire.com / -- Allied Market Research recently published a report, titled, "Autonomous Ships Market by Level of Autonomy (Semi-autonomous and Fully-autonomous), Ship Type (Commercial, Passenger, and Defense), Component (Hardware and Software) and fuel Type (Carbon Neutral Fuels, LNG, Electric, and Heavy Fuel Oil/Marine Engine Fuel): Global Opportunity Analysis and industry Forecast, 2020–2030". As per the report, the global autonomous ships industry was pegged at $85.84 billion in 2020, and is projected to reach $165.61 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 6.8% from 2020 to 2030.

Major determinants of the market growth

Rise in demand for cargo transportation through marines and surge in operational safety of ships have boosted the growth of the global autonomous ships market. However, risk of exploitation by hacking and complexity of the network hampers the market growth. On the contrary, anticipated trend of automation in marine transportation and increase in marine safety norms are expected to create lucrative opportunities for the market players in the future.

The development of autonomous ships has the potential to revolutionize the shipping industry, increasing efficiency, improving safety, reducing emissions, and increasing profitability. However, significant challenges remain, including regulation, cybersecurity, and industry acceptance. As technology continues to advance, it is likely that we will see more and more autonomous ships on the high seas.

Covid-19 scenario:

The spread of Covid-19 impelled the industry to implement remote working for continuation of businesses and fleet observation. The suspension of import and export activities have further impacted the demand for autonomous ships.
Original equipment manufacturers and shipping companies, on the other hand, have started relying on artificial intelligence, owing to lack of labor force.
The government bodies are also aiding various industries with economic benefits by easing off the regulations. And, this factor is anticipated to assist the industry as well.

The semiautonomous segment dominated the market

Based on level of autonomy, the semiautonomous segment held the largest share in 2020, accounting for 98% of the global autonomous ships market. Implementation of fully automation in the ocean at larger pace requires time. Which in turn, augments the demand for semiautonomous ships presently. However, the fully autonomous segment is estimated to manifest the highest CAGR of 27.5% from 2020 to 2030, due to multiple factors including trend of adoption of automation in transport sector and multiple features offered by autonomous ships.

The hardware segment held the largest share

Based on component type, the hardware segment held the lion's share in 2020, contributing to more than three-fifths of the global autonomous ships market. The rise in new applications and innovations in hardware for vessel management has created companies to invest in the ship telematics sector. However, the software segment is estimated to register the highest CAGR of 7.9% during the forecast period. Active step by providing software-based application that supports the functionality and integration of data center and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities along with sophisticated edge computing in shipping intelligence systems drive the growth of the segment.
