根據 Stratistics MRC 的數據,2024 年全球種雲市場規模將達到 4.088 億美元,預計到 2030 年將達到 6.734 億美元,預測期內複合年成長率為 8.7%。

種雲是一種人工影響天氣技術,旨在透過將物質引入雲中來增加降水。這些物質,通常是碘化銀、氯化鈉和其他化學物質,形成形成和聚結水滴的核。該過程由飛機或地面發電機執行,將播種劑散佈入目標雲中。它用於增加乾旱地區的降雨量,改善供水,緩解乾旱狀況。

根據Gap Initiative的預測,為了在2022年和2050年為超過90億人永續生產糧食和農產品,農業生產率需要平均每年提高1.73%。 2011年至2020年,全球農業生產力年均成長1.12%。

對水資源的需求不斷增加

對水資源的需求不斷成長正在推動市場的成長。由於氣候變遷和人口成長,水資源短缺變得更加普遍,種雲為增加降雨量和補充水供應提供了潛在的解決方案。這項技術在面臨嚴重乾旱和缺水的地區越來越受到追捧。透過種雲增加降雨量,各國和各行業的目標是確保農業、工業和家庭用水的供應更加可靠。

環境問題

使用碘化銀等化學物質的目的是增加降水,但存在可能污染水源和土壤的問題。人們也擔心對生態系統和生物多樣性的長期影響。此外,不斷變化的自然天氣模式可能會擾亂當地的氣候和水循環,可能導致意想不到的環境破壞。這些擔憂可能會阻礙種雲端技術的採用和開發。

不斷成長的農業需求

隨著世界對糧食需求的增加,農民正在尋求創新的解決方案來提高作物產量並確保可靠的水資源供應。種雲提供了一種增加降雨量的方法,這對於容易發生乾旱和降水不穩定的地區的灌溉至關重要。透過種雲改善供水可以提高農業生產力,滿足不斷成長的糧食需求,並支持永續農業。因此,不斷成長的農業需求正在推動市場成長。

高成本

高成本是市場的主要負面因素。與種雲作業相關的費用(例如設備、化學品和人員)可能會很大。這種經濟負擔限制了這項技術的取得,特別是對於發展中地區和小型農業企業而言。此外,高成本可能會對投資的合理性帶來挑戰,特別是在無法保證種雲結果的情況下。因此,經濟障礙可能會限制該技術的傳播和應用。

COVID-19 的影響:

COVID-19 大流行影響了市場,導致供應鏈中斷、計劃延誤和營運能力下降。旅行限制和封鎖影響了人員和設備的流動,阻礙了種雲活動。景氣衰退導致的財務緊張導致計劃延遲和取消,影響了市場成長。此外,疫情期間環境和農業計劃優先事項的轉變以及預算削減進一步限制了對種雲端技術的投資。

預計層積雲部分在預測期內將達到最大。

預計層積雲將在預測期內達到高峰。這些低空蓬鬆雲通常垂直發展有限,但可以透過種雲誘導降雨。將碘化銀等催晶劑引入層積雲中可以促進更大水滴的形成並增加降水。這種方法在層積雲常見且乾旱的地區特別有效。

預計冰雹抑制產業在預測期內的複合年成長率最高。

預計冰雹抑制產業在預測期內的複合年成長率最高。冰雹抑制是種雲市場的一個主要應用,旨在減少雷暴期間冰雹的形成和嚴重程度。透過將碘化銀等助晶劑分散到雲中,可以產生破壞性較小的冰片,而不是大冰雹。有效的冰雹抑制可以防止重大經濟損失,減少昂貴的維修和保險申請的需要,並提高對惡劣天氣事件的抵禦能力。

佔比最大的地區:

預計北美在預測期內將佔據最大的市場佔有率。乾旱多發地區正在積極投資種雲端技術,以增加降雨量並管理供水。技術進步和政府支持政策正在推動市場成長。此外,對改善農業用水和減輕乾旱影響的關注正在支持在整個非洲大陸擴大種雲舉措。

複合年成長率最高的地區:

預計亞太地區在預測期內將維持最高的複合年成長率。種雲為缺水地區增加降雨量和管理供水提供了潛在的解決方案。各國經濟的快速成長和發展導致對基礎設施和技術(包括種雲端系統)的投資增加。亞太國家政府正積極投資人工影響天氣項目,包括種雲計劃。這些措施旨在解決水資源短缺問題並加強水資源管理。

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Cloud Seeding Market is accounted for $408.8 million in 2024 and is expected to reach $673.4 million by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 8.7% during the forecast period. Cloud seeding is a weather modification technique aimed at enhancing precipitation by introducing substances into clouds. These substances, typically silver iodide, sodium chloride, or other chemicals, act as nuclei around which water droplets can form and coalesce. The process is conducted by aircraft or ground-based generators that disperse the seeding agents into targeted clouds. It is used to increase rainfall in arid regions, improve water supplies, and mitigate drought conditions.

According to Gap initiative, in 2022, to sustainably produce food and agricultural products for more than 9 billion people in 2050, agricultural productivity must increase by an average of 1.73 percent per year. In the years 2011-2020, the agricultural productivity of the world grew by an average of only 1.12 percent per year.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Increasing demand for water resources

The increasing demand for water resources is driving the growth of the market. As water scarcity becomes more prevalent due to climate change and population growth, cloud seeding offers a potential solution for augmenting rainfall and replenishing water supplies. This technology is increasingly sought after by regions facing severe droughts or water shortages. By enhancing precipitation through cloud seeding, countries and industries aim to ensure more reliable water availability for agriculture, industry, and domestic use.

Restraint:

Environmental concerns

The use of chemicals like silver iodide, while intended to enhance precipitation, raises issues regarding potential contamination of water sources and soil. There are worries about the long-term ecological impact on ecosystems and biodiversity. Additionally, the unintended consequences of altering natural weather patterns may disrupt local climates and water cycles, leading to unforeseen environmental consequences. These concerns can hinder the adoption and development of cloud seeding technologies.

Opportunity:

Rising agricultural needs

As global food demand escalates, farmers are seeking innovative solutions to enhance crop yields and ensure consistent water availability. Cloud seeding offers a method to increase rainfall, which is crucial for irrigation in regions prone to drought or irregular precipitation. By improving water supply through cloud seeding, agricultural productivity can be boosted, helping to meet the growing food requirements and support sustainable farming practices. Thus, rising agricultural needs are fueling the growth of the market.

Threat:

High costs

High costs are a significant negative factor in the market. The expenses associated with cloud seeding operations, including equipment, chemicals, and personnel, can be substantial. This financial burden limits the technology's accessibility, particularly for developing regions or smaller agricultural enterprises. Additionally, the high costs can lead to challenges in justifying the investment, especially when the results of cloud seeding are not guaranteed. Consequently, the economic barriers may restrict widespread adoption and application of the technology.

Covid-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the market by causing disruptions in supply chains, project delays, and reduced operational capacities. Travel restrictions and lockdowns affected the movement of personnel and equipment, hindering cloud seeding activities. Financial constraints due to economic downturns led to postponed or cancelled projects, affecting market growth. Additionally, shifting priorities and reduced budgets for environmental and agricultural initiatives during the pandemic have further constrained investment in cloud seeding technologies.

The stratocumulus segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The stratocumulus is expected to be the largest during the forecast period. These low-altitude, puffy clouds often have limited vertical development but can be targeted for cloud seeding to induce rainfall. By introducing seeding agents like silver iodide into stratocumulus clouds, it is possible to stimulate the formation of larger water droplets and increase precipitation. This method is particularly useful in regions where stratocumulus clouds are prevalent and drought conditions are a concern.

The hail suppression segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The hail suppression segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Hail suppression is a key application within the cloud seeding market, aiming to reduce the formation and severity of hailstones during thunderstorms. By dispersing seeding agents like silver iodide into clouds, less damaging ice pellets instead of large hailstones. Effective hail suppression can prevent significant economic losses and reduce the need for costly repairs and insurance claims, enhancing resilience against severe weather events.

Region with largest share:

North America is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period. Regions facing frequent droughts, are actively investing in cloud seeding technologies to augment precipitation and manage water supply. Advances in technology and supportive government policies are driving market growth. Additionally, the focus on improving water availability for agriculture and mitigating drought impacts supports the expansion of cloud seeding initiatives across the continent.

Region with highest CAGR:

Asia Pacific is projected to hold the highest CAGR over the forecast period. Cloud seeding offers a potential solution to enhance rainfall and manage water supplies in water-scarce areas. The rapid economic growth and development in countries have led to increased investments in infrastructure and technology, including cloud seeding systems. Governments in Asia Pacific countries are actively investing in weather modification programs, including cloud seeding projects. These initiatives aim to address water scarcity issues and enhance water resource management.
