Environmental Monitoring Global Market Report 2024

The environmental monitoring market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $16.35 billion in 2023 to $17.52 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.2%. The growth observed in the historical period can be attributed to several factors, including a focus on regulatory compliance, innovations in monitoring solutions, the effects of industrialization and urbanization, heightened public awareness and concerns regarding the environment, and the occurrence of environmental incidents and disasters.

The environmental monitoring market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $22.08 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be attributed to advancements in sensor technology, increased integration with IoT (Internet of Things) and AI (Artificial Intelligence), the emergence of new environmental regulations, the growth in smart cities initiatives, and an increasing adoption of remote sensing technologies. Key trends in the forecast period include the expanding integration of IoT, the rise of AI-powered analytics, a heightened focus on air quality monitoring, an emphasis on water quality management, and the integration of satellite and remote sensing data into environmental monitoring practices.

The anticipated increase in air pollution levels is expected to drive the growth of the environmental monitoring market. Air pollution, characterized by the presence of harmful or excessive substances in the Earth's atmosphere, poses risks to human health, the environment, and overall quality of life. Escalating emissions from industrial activities, vehicular exhaust, and other human sources contribute to the rising levels of air pollution. Environmental monitoring plays a crucial role in tracking pollution levels, identifying sources, assessing compliance with regulatory standards, and informing policy decisions to protect public health and the environment. According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency, carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from burning fossil fuels grew by 7% in 2021. The World Health Organization also reports approximately 7 million premature deaths annually due to the association of ambient air pollution and household air pollution. The increasing air pollution levels underscore the significance of the environmental monitoring market in addressing environmental challenges.

Key players in the environmental monitoring market are actively developing innovative solutions, including ASIO environmental monitoring systems, to gain a competitive advantage. ASIO environmental monitoring systems comprise integrated networks of sensors, instruments, and technologies designed to measure various environmental parameters, such as air quality, water quality, soil conditions, weather patterns, and biodiversity. In June 2023, BIRD Aerosystems, an Israel-based defense technology and solutions company, introduced the ASIO environmental monitoring system. This cutting-edge solution focuses on detecting and addressing maritime pollution, particularly oil spills, using advanced technology such as the SEA EYE sensor. The ASIO system offers real-time detection and classification of oil and organic substances on the water's surface, facilitating swift response and mitigation efforts. With AI capabilities and prediction tools, the ASIO system enables authorities to manage environmental crises effectively, minimizing ecological and economic impacts while ensuring efficient cleanup operations.

In November 2021, Acoem, a France-based industrial and environmental technology solutions company, completed the acquisition of Met One Instruments Inc. for an undisclosed amount. This strategic move is expected to enhance Acoem's position as a comprehensive environmental monitoring solutions provider, strengthening its technological capabilities and global reach to meet the growing demand for precise air quality monitoring solutions worldwide. Met One Instruments Inc., a US-based electronic manufacturing company, specializes in designing and manufacturing meteorological instruments, contributing to organizations' efforts to monitor and maintain air quality standards for a healthier environment.

Environmental monitoring involves a systematic approach to observing, measuring, and assessing diverse environmental factors with the goal of understanding and managing the condition of ecosystems, natural resources, and the broader environment. This process serves to safeguard ecosystems, human health, and overall environmental quality by furnishing crucial data for informed decision-making and the development of proactive ecological management strategies.

The primary types of environmental monitoring encompass particulate detection, chemical detection, biological detection, temperature sensing, moisture detection, and noise measurement. Particulate detection involves the identification and measurement of solid or liquid particles suspended in a medium. Various sampling methods, such as continuous monitoring, active monitoring, passive monitoring, and intermittent monitoring, are employed in this process. These monitoring techniques find applications in diverse areas, including air pollution, water pollution, soil pollution, and noise pollution. End-users benefiting from these environmental monitoring practices range from government agencies to consumer electronics, retail, and the medical sector.
