Market drivers include improved reliability and resilience, full territory coverage, enhanced security, and reduced complexity
BOULDER, Colo., Nov. 16, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- A new report from Guidehouse Insights explores the market for Private LTE wireless technology (PLTE) in five industrial verticals: power and utilities, oil and gas, mining, transport, and manufacturing.
Smart grids and power plants, smart mining, smart factories, smart ports, smart airports, smart refineries, and digital oilfields can all benefit from this networking technology, which is emerging as the gold standard for complex, critical industrial communications. According to a new report from Guidehouse Insights, the global market for PLTE infrastructure, installation, and ongoing maintenance services in the five subject verticals will top $2.1 billion in 2024 and grow at an estimated compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 23.2% through 2033. At that point the global market is projected to be worth more than $14 billion.
"PLTE is gaining momentum among industrial verticals worldwide as leaders recognize the robustness and flexibility this family of communications protocols offers for smart use cases," says Richelle Elberg, principal research analyst with Guidehouse Insights. "PLTE simplifies the networking function within a large organization, and the protocol will provide a smooth transition to future wireless standards such as 5G and 6G."
Barriers to industrial PLTE deployments can include cost, complexity, a lack of internal expertise, and regulatory barriers to spectrum acquisition. Nonetheless, the drivers for PLTE use in critical Industry 4.0 verticals are many. PLTE provides owner/operators with improved reliability and resilience, full territory coverage (or at least of critical sites), enhanced security, and reduced complexity, as a wide range of use cases can be supported, according to the report.
The report, Private LTE Networking for Industry 4.0, describes the market outlook for PLTE in five industrial verticals: power and utilities, oil and gas, mining, transport, and manufacturing. It presents the market drivers and barriers, critical use cases supported, and summarizes the necessary spectrum considerations to understand for PLTE deployments.
