Pronóstico del mercado de servicios de pronóstico meteorológico de Asia Pacífico hasta 2028: impacto de COVID-19 y análisis regional por industria (agricultura, aviación, marina, transporte y logística, energía y servicios públicos, petróleo y gas, medios, seguros, comercio minorista, construcción y minería, y otros) ), propósito (eficiencia operativa, seguridad y otros), tipo de pronóstico (pronóstico inmediato, corto plazo, mediano plazo y largo plazo) y tamaño de la organización (grandes empresas y pequeñas y medianas empresas)
Se espera que el mercado de servicios de previsión meteorológica de Asia Pacífico crezca de 298,87 millones de dólares en 2021 a 592,96 millones de dólares en 2028; se estima que crecerá a una tasa compuesta anual del 10,3% entre 2021 y 2028.
La previsión meteorológica es un servicio de consultoría que ofrece previsiones en tiempo real y ayuda a la planificación diaria eficiente. y toma de decisiones informada en diversos entornos industriales. Las notificaciones meteorológicas avanzadas permiten a las empresas planificar con antelación operaciones sensibles al clima, lo que garantiza seguridad, eficiencia, mayor sostenibilidad y ahorros de costes significativos. Los servicios de pronóstico del tiempo se utilizan ampliamente en diversas industrias, incluidas las de petróleo y gas, energía renovable, transporte marítimo, medios de comunicación, agricultura, aviación, servicios públicos y construcción. Durante el período de proyección, se espera que el sector de las energías renovables domine el mercado, debido al aumento del consumo de electricidad y las necesidades de energía en diversas industrias de uso final. Se está alentando a varias empresas industriales a reducir sus emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero para producir energía limpia debido a nuevas medidas gubernamentales enérgicas destinadas a sustituir recursos no renovables por energía renovable. Durante el período de pronóstico, se anticipa que estos factores aumentarán la demanda de servicios de pronóstico del tiempo.
La medida de contención del gobierno en esta región ha afectado negativamente a varias operaciones industriales en la región. China es el principal país fabricante de esta región y se encuentra entre los países más afectados junto con la India. En última instancia, esto ha impactado la producción en varios sectores. Sin embargo, las crecientes preocupaciones medioambientales siguen respaldando la necesidad de servicios de previsión meteorológica en Asia Pacífico. Además, debido a la interrupción de la cadena de suministro y la logística, la tasa de adquisición de diversos equipos electrónicos utilizados para construir equipos/sistemas de pronóstico del tiempo se ha visto gravemente afectada. India, Corea del Sur, Japón, Vietnam y otros países asiáticos han sido testigos de una fuerte caída en las operaciones de producción en varias unidades de fabricación. Se prevé que la actual pandemia de COVID-19 cause enormes perturbaciones en el crecimiento de diversas industrias de la región. Por ejemplo, China es el centro manufacturero de Asia Pacífico y el mayor proveedor de materias primas para diversas industrias, y es uno de los países más afectados por la COVID-19. Por lo tanto, se espera que las continuas interrupciones en el suministro de materias primas y componentes afecten el crecimiento del mercado de servicios de pronóstico meteorológico en los próximos trimestres en Asia Pacífico.
Con los nuevos avances y tecnologías, los proveedores pueden atraer nuevos clientes y ampliar su presencia en los mercados emergentes. Es probable que este factor impulse el mercado de servicios de previsión meteorológica de Asia Pacífico. Con el aumento constante de la temperatura y el calentamiento del aire, se ha intensificado la evaporación del agua, lo que ha provocado frecuentes aguaceros y fuertes nevadas. Estas fuertes precipitaciones no se distribuyen uniformemente en toda la región y algunos lugares no reciben la cantidad necesaria de precipitación. Dado que el cambio climático provoca un cambio en las corrientes de aire y océano, cambia los patrones climáticos. La creciente incidencia de desastres naturales debido a cambios climáticos no deseados y las consiguientes preocupaciones de seguridad se ha convertido en el factor clave detrás del crecimiento del mercado de servicios de previsión meteorológica de Asia Pacífico. Una previsión meteorológica avanzada y fiable lograda en el tiempo estipulado puede suponer un importante ahorro de costes y también ayudar a proteger contra catástrofes y desastres naturales. Es probable que los avances tecnológicos en los sistemas informáticos, como el análisis de datos avanzado, el desarrollo de modelos y las herramientas y técnicas de aprendizaje automático, impulsen la demanda del mercado de servicios de pronóstico del tiempo.
