Drones
for Energy Industry Global Market – Overview
The global drones
for energy industry market has witnessed a remarkable growth in the past few
years and it has been anticipated that the market will grow at the rapid pace
during the forecast period. Drones for energy are poised to grow at a
substantial rate as the industry is investing in the services provided by an
unmanned aerial vehicle, for line-of-sight applications, to observe ocean-going
ships, to inspect offshore platforms and refineries, to inspect or monitor
power lines, wind turbine, solar panel. These drones provides and process
accurate data from the remote systems, where human access is difficult and is
also a cost effective & less time consuming inspection technique compared
to manual inspection. As per the study conducted by Market Research Future, the
global market for drones for energy industry is likely to grow at the CAGR of
around 25.53%.
Drones for energy
industry can be defined as, an unmanned aerial vehicle used to inspect or
monitor power lines, wind turbine, solar panel, offshore rigs and flarestacks
for preventive maintenance of the system. These drones provides and process
accurate data from the remote systems, where human access is difficult and is
also a cost effective & less time consuming inspection technique compared
to manual inspection. The drones for energy industry is driven by various
factors such as accurate assessment of operating condition of assets, and
effective cost reduction compared to manned operations. However, federal
regulations limiting the usage to line-of-sight, lack of technological
advancements for processing the raw data will act as restrains for the drones
for energy industry market, globally.
Conventional
assessment, monitoring and inspection for remote & discrete system requires
skilled manpower, high-tech equipment, cranes, ropes, ladders or scaffolding.
These factors increases the overall maintenance cost as well as the risk
associated with it. Also, the labour cost associated with discrete inspection
is high as compared to regular assessment. Whereas, drones for energy industry
are convenient, easy and accurate to assess such systems, where manual
inspection is difficult or risky. Drones used for energy industry are accurate,
flexible, reliable and cost effective. They are easy to operate in harsh
environment and also at high altitudes, and require lesser time for assessment.
Drones for energy
industry is driven by its benefits over conventional manual inspection. Drones
can inspect the PV modules installed at utility scale, rooftop or building
integrated systems. Drones can produce thermography of the solar power plant,
inspect for degradation, & malfunction of PV modules also, dust saturation
and vegetation monitoring over PV modules. Drones can detect the edge erosion
and blade defects over the turbine also, they can inspect the turbine blade
lightning receptor, tower and nacelle. Drones can detect leaks, corrosion and
other problems related with oil & gas rigs & pipelines. Drones are used
in transmission lines for vegetation management to monitor the trees to prevent
them from interfering with transmission lines. These factors, majorly, are
contributing to the growth of drones for energy industry in near future.
Drones for energy
industry are cost effective as compared to manual inspection. Drones for energy
industry are easy, flexible and convenient for use. Drones helps reduce the
economic cost associated with inspection or monitoring of the large scale
remote system. Drones provides aerial images, which helps the operator receive
them in real-time and can assess the faults from his location itself, thus
eliminate the manual error associated with site inspection and risk associated
with the inspection in remote, high altitude and offshore operations.
