$ 0

trillion US dollars for the year 2024

Power & Utilities

US $400 B

grid upkeep

Grid owners already pour roughly $300-$400 billion a year into inspection, repair and maintenance, and the IEA says that figure must double this decade to keep pace with renewables and electrification.

Oil & Gas

US $160 B

field services, repair and maintenance

Ageing wells, stricter safety rules and steady offshore activity keep global oilfield-service (IRM) demand hovering near $133-$150 billion a year, even when crude prices fluctuate.

Aviation

US $95 B

global spend on MRO

The aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) sector is valued at about $95 billion and is growing 6 % annually as post-COVID fleet utilisation rebounds and next-gen jets mature.

Automotive

US $800 B

verhicle service, repair and maintenance

Drivers and fleets spend about $779 billion annually on vehicle repair and servicing, making automotive the world’s largest maintenance market and a prime testbed for robotics-enabled efficiency.

Maritime

US $40 B

service, repair and maintenance

Ship repair and maintenance services represent roughly $37-$40 billion worldwide, driven by an ageing cargo fleet and the fast-growing offshore wind segment.

Manufacturing

US $200 B

service & maintenance in factories

Discrete factories rack up an estimated $193-$200 billion in maintenance outlays and preventable downtime each year, a pain-point AI-powered inspection robots are poised to tackle.

Chemical

US $65 B

service, repair and maintenance

Plant-level benchmarks put maintenance at ~3 % of revenue, translating to about $65 billion in yearly spend, capital that ATEX-rated robotics and predictive analytics aim to stretch further.

Infrastructure

US $400B

service, repair and maintenance

Public agencies have already committed close to $400 billion under initiatives like the U.S. Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, highlighting the vast global backlog of road, bridge and civil-asset repairs.
