Press Releases

The global cloud seeding market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period. Cloud-seeding involves sending aircraft into the clouds and releasing silver iodide, which causes rain to fall on the ground. The rising concern for water scarcity in arid regions globally as a result of climate change and global warming along with initiatives by the government to promote cloud seeding in areas having dry spells are the key factors contributing to the market share of the global cloud seeding industry. The increasing demand for agricultural products and water sources, increased need to create artificial rain and maintain the water level in draught-stricken areas, mounting investment in cloud modification initiatives, rising demand for reducing environmental risks, and increased consumer awareness about cloud seeding advantages will bolster market growth of the global cloud seeding industry. Moreover, airborne and ground-based cloud seeding has been used for years to maintain consistent environmental conditions near runways. Weather conditions such as hail, ice, and fog can make it difficult for planes to take off and land, necessitating the use of cloud seeding frequently. Nevertheless, the new entrants in the cloud seeding industry are constantly engaging in several collaborations and heavily investing in R&D activities to provide more efficient cloud seeding solutions to end-users and optimize cloud seeding techniques so as to deploy in drought areas.

Cloud seeding may gain traction in Colorado in October 2022 as the western United States' water crisis worsens. Along the upper Gunnison River, North American Weather Consultants already operates a cloud seeding operation. The new operation in Boulder County could be one of the first on the Front Range. A new operation is being established along the St. Vrain headwaters west of Longmont, with operations set to begin this winter.

Bowse 53 market data Tables and 35 Figures spread through 210 Pages and in-depth TOC on "Cloud Seeding Market by Seeding Type (Ground-Based Seeding and Aerial-Based Seeding), by Seeding Technique (Hygroscopic and Glaciogeneic), by Application (Fog Dissipation, Hail Suppression, Snowfall and Rainfall Augmentation, and Others), and Region - Global Forecast to 2030

By Application, Fog Dissipation segment will witness the fastest market growth during the forecast period.

Fog dissipation is anticipated to grow at a faster pace during the projected timeframe due to growing businesses in several cities, particularly in developing countries, which means an improvement in infrastructure and, as a result, an increase in the number of airports. Airports primarily use cloud seeding equipment for fog dissipation in order to facilitate plane transit.
