Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) Market size surpassed 500 million in 2022 and is estimated to record over 5% CAGR between 2023 and 2032. The increasing use of solar batteries that offer renewable & sustainable energy to USVs is accelerating their growth. The increasing demand for water quality monitoring due to increased pollution levels and ocean data mapping that allows scientists to study past climatic conditions are driving the demand for unmanned surface vehicles.
Furthermore, rising maritime security threats are prompting global navies to incorporate autonomous surface vehicles into their fleets, propelling the global unmanned surface vehicle market growth. These unmanned vehicles are widely used in disaster management services, particularly in search & rescue operations, preventive maintenance, and preservation of territorial and enclosed water areas.
