Smart Mining Market Drivers and Opportunities

Rising Awareness Related to the Benefits Provided by Smart Mining Equipment and Technologies to Favor the Market

The world is exploring smart mining technologies to improve its mining industry. The growth in digitalization and industrial automation helps mining companies improve their operational efficiency. These benefits help the country expand its mining activities. For instance, in 2023, the Government of Italy announced the resuming of critical raw materials mining operations. The mine contains numerous materials, such as lithium, cobalt, nickel, copper, zinc, beryllium, and tungsten. The government also estimated that the country holds at least 15 of the 34 elements in the ground. The resuming of mining activities require smart equipment and technologies to streamline the mining operations. These smart mining techniques help the workers improve productivity by minimizing environmental impact.

Government Support for the Installation of Smart Mining Technologies

The government has also installed smart mining technologies in more than 1,000 working coal facilities to increase the annual production capacity to over 620 million tons. Furthermore, the country is modernizing coal facilities by deploying The Hongliulin "intelligent mine" in coal-belt Shaanxi province to remove peak greenhouse gas emissions by 2030. The sustainability benefits of smart mining technologies fuel the market in the country. Thus, the increasing number of awareness programs, conferences, exhibitions, etc., are likely to create growth opportunities in the smart mining market during the forecast period.
