The smart port market is projected to reach USD 5.1 billion by 2026 from an estimated USD 1.7 billion in 2021, at a CAGR of 23.9%

during the forecast period. Increasing government participation and encouragement for smart port infrastructure development and upgradation and expansion of existing ports are expected to offer lucrative opportunities for the smart port market during the forecast period.

New York, June 15, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reportlinker.com announces the release of the report "Smart Ports Market by Technology, Elements, Throughput Capacity, Port Type And Region - Global Forecast to 2026" - https://www.reportlinker.com/p05797097/?utm_source=GNW
However, the high initial investment required for port development and technological complexity in the integration and development of various systems present challenges in this market.

The extensively busy ports segment, by throughput capacity, is expected to be the largest market from 2021 to 2026.
Based on throughput capacity, the smart ports market has been segmented into extensively busy ports, moderately busy ports, and scarcely busy ports.The extensively busy ports is expected to be the largest market from 2021 to 2026.

Extensively busy ports handle a capacity of more than 18 million TEU per year. Some of the extensively busy ports are in China, Singapore, and South Korea, as they act as a major corridor for trade.

The internet of things, by technology, is expected to be the fastest-growing market from 2021 to 2026.
The smart ports market by technology has been segmented into process automation, IoT, artificial intelligence (AI), and blockchain.The internet of things is expected to be the fastest-growing market from 2021 to 2026.

The Ports implementing digitalization have been actively adopting IoT for their operations.The IoT platform is based on 3 major parameters, which include smart port infrastructure, intelligent traffic flows, and intelligent trade flows.

It has helped ports in traffic management, controlling pollution, and road safety.IoT has transformed the traditional way in which any seaport works.

With the deployment of IoT, the physical aspect of any process is being connected to the internet, which helps in real-time sharing of data and remote access.

Asia Pacific: The fastest-growing region in the smart port market.

Asia Pacific is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period.This scope of the regional market includes China, Singapore, Japan, Hong Kong, South Korea, and Rest of Asia Pacific.

This region dominates the global maritime trade.The Asia Pacific maritime information market is currently witnessing healthy growth.

The ports in the region have grown in tandem with the economic development of most countries and cities, reflecting the region’s recent rapid economic growth.Asia Pacific is one of the fastest-growing economies in the world due to numerous factors such as international divisional manufacturing, global supply chains, low production cost and each country’s export-led development policies.

This has translated into the increasing volume of cargo moving from this region. As major cargo transportation happens through sea routes, owing to which the number of ports in Asia is increasing every year, and the existing ports are witnessing expansion.

The seaport segment, by port type, is expected to be the fastest-growing market from 2021 to 2026.
Based on port type, the smart ports market has been segmented into seaport and inland ports.The seaport segment is expected to be the largest market from 2021 to 2026.

Different types of applications, such as loading, unloading, and transshipment of cargo to and from the vessels; storage and warehousing of merchandise on land and stevedoring to and from vessels; and complementary services to shipping carriers, are performed on seaports.They also offer the facilities of berthing or anchoring ships their classification is based on location, depth, and ship sizes.

A seaport exhibits immense potential related to cost-effectiveness as it handles cargo in a large volume.

The smart port infrastructure, by element, is expected to be the largest market from 2021 to 2026.
The smart port infrastructure segment of the smart ports market, by element, accounts for the highest market share among all the other segments because it is the most intensive aspect of developing any port into a smart port.With the rise in global trade, it has been observed that the size of vessel and cargo volumes have increased, which has impacted the seaports in terms of managing the operations.

Ports are therefore increasing the adoption of smart solutions that will help optimize operations, promote efficiency, and reduce logistics costs without requiring major investment in new infrastructure and equipment. Hence, increasing trade via ports around the world has created a need for investments in the modernization of port infrastructure.
