The gamma ray spectroscopy market is valued US$ 765.61 million in 2022; It is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.7% from 2022 to 2028.

According to Bundesamt für Strahlenschutz, Germany has ~100,000 radioactive sources that are sealed and used in medicine, agriculture, and research industries. According to the Atomic Energy Act and Radiation Protection Act, these radioactive sources are used under government supervision and require a license. The UK has around eight nuclear facilities. The UK government plans to derive a quarter of the country's energy from nuclear facilities. The Russian Federation is one of the world's leading providers of nickel, iron ore, coal, diamond, aluminum, uranium, palladium, platinum, and gold. It accounts for 14% of the total mineral extraction in the world. The gamma ray spectrometer is used for mineral exploration, one of the factors fueling the gamma ray spectroscopy market growth.

According to World Nuclear Association, France’s nuclear energy generates about 70% of electricity due to the energy security-based policy passed in 2014. According to this government policy, the country aimed to reduce the nuclear share of electricity production to 50% by 2025, which was postponed from 2019 to 2035. Further, in February 2022, the country announced its plan to construct 6 new nuclear reactors. Developing nuclear reactors will further contribute to the gamma ray spectroscopy market size.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Gamma Ray Spectroscopy Market Analysis

Before COVID-19, the gamma ray spectroscopy market was experiencing substantial growth due to the rising demand from manufacturing industries and the growing development of spectrometers. However, lockdowns, business shutdowns, international trade restrictions, and various containment measures negatively impacted the production and supply chain of the market until June 2020 and during the second large outbreak in October 2021. On the other side, during the COVID-19 pandemic, some big manufacturers developed new sales, services, and delivery techniques by adopting digital platforms.

As industrial activities picked pace from the last quarter of 2020, market players experienced steady growth in demand from end users. Therefore, the global gamma ray spectroscopy market is expected to recover strongly in the coming years owing to the increasing requirement for exploring the rock's potassium, uranium, thorium, and other minerals. Further, in the aerospace industry, scientists can determine the composition of other planets and stars with the help of a detector placed in a space telescope.
