IDTechEx: Dispelling the Downturn of the EV Market

Published

7 months ago

on

BOSTON, May 31, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Electric vehicle (EV) related news has been somewhat bleak in the first part of 2024; you will have heard a lot about the downturn in the EV market and OEMs scaling back plans. This might make one think that EVs are beyond their hype and that they will not be the solution of the future, but is that really the message we should be taking away? In this article, IDTechEx discusses the current statistics, the state of the market, and the outlook for the future.

What is happening with EV sales?

From 2015 to 2023, electric car sales have exhibited strong growth year on year, even during the period of COVID-19, when the automotive market had a large downturn. IDTechEx’s research (“Electric Vehicles: Land, Sea, and Air 2024-2044“) found that growth has averaged 50% year on year, with growth from 2022 to 2023 at 38%.

Considering 2024 so far, the IEA recently published data showing a decrease in EV sales in the first quarter (Q1) of 2024 of 20% compared to the final quarter (Q4) of 2023. This, at first, may seem alarming, but one should consider the trends throughout the year. Despite the strong year-on-year growth, there is a consistent trend of sales in Q1 being significantly lower than in Q4. However, Q1 sales year-on-year have continued to increase, with Q1 sales in 2024 being 30% higher than Q1 sales in 2023. Not only that, but electric car sales were up in all regions compared to the same period last year.

EV sales continue to grow rapidly, but these growth rates have slowed somewhat. IDTechEx found that the yearly growth peaked between 2020 and 2021 at 111% and has been decreasing since. However, this is an inevitability, it is not possible to have exponential growth forever; the sales of EVs are growing into an existing (and limited) automotive market.

Where are the concerns coming from?

Given that EV sales are still growing strongly, why do we see so many news stories about the downturn? Some are certainly playing to the ‘anti-hype’ in that it makes a more enticing headline to promote failure rather than to say, ‘EVs do well again’. Some of the scalebacks in production for vehicles and components may also be due to overinvestment and the growth rate being slower than some originally predicted. This, combined with the need for automakers to try and make their current EV platforms more profitable.

But there are more legitimate concerns, too, for the further adoption of EVs. One major limitation is the lack of models in more affordable price brackets. While there are excellent EVs on the market that now match or come under the average car price, it is still the case that the electric version is more expensive than the combustion equivalent of the same model, and there is yet to be much choice in models below the 25,000 euro (or equivalent) mark in western markets.

Charging infrastructure is still a key factor in consumer adoption. Most people who own EVs will charge at home overnight and occasionally utilize public infrastructure for longer journeys. However, many will see closed public chargers on their general travels, which is certainly off-putting, even if this situation is improving and public charging is not the primary mechanism. A major hurdle is for those who do not have access to a driveway or garage to charge. Innovations are happening here, with chargers being installed in lamp posts and parking garages. However, at the moment, this still leaves consumers at the mercy of housing providers, authorities, and charging network providers to install and maintain these systems. These owners are also more likely to require vehicles in the lower price brackets, which we are yet to see.

What does the future look like?

Despite the above concerns, EV sales continue to grow, and impending combustion engine bans are unlikely to be pushed further back. Demand is still present, but lower upfront cost models need to be available to fully address the automotive market’s potential. While there are concerns around charging infrastructure, these can all be addressed through various means but will take time and investment. In the long run, EVs will lead to a cleaner road network. IDTechEx’s report, “Electric Vehicles: Land, Sea, and Air 2024-2044”, predicts that electric car sales will exceed 50 million by 2035 across the globe, from over 18 million in 2024.

It is not just cars, with segments like buses, trucks, 2-wheelers, aircraft, and marine all looking to electrify with their own drivers, challenges, and stages of adoption. Forecasts across these categories for the next 20 years are provided as part of IDTechEx’s “Electric Vehicles: Land, Sea, and Air 2024-2044” report.

After nearly two years in business, Dr. Ashley Milhizer’s Tempe-based center for naturopathic medicine and aesthetics has experienced the type of growth that rival industry titans. Real Results Medical & Aesthetics – soon to be opening a second location in Scottsdale in early 2025 – has seen an impressive 300% growth since opening their doors in March 2023.

TEMPE, Ariz., Dec. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — After nearly two years in business, Dr. Ashley Milhizer’s Tempe-based center for naturopathic medicine and aesthetics has experienced the type of growth that rival industry titans. Real Results Medical & Aesthetics – soon to be opening a second location in Scottsdale in early 2025 – has seen an impressive 300% growth since opening their doors in March 2023.

Aside from patient referrals and cutting-edge technology, Milhizer credits social media as one of the biggest avenues for growth. “Between TikTok and Instagram we’ve amassed over 25,000 followers and that accounts for about 70% of our new business.”

Aside from patient referrals and cutting-edge technology, Milhizer credits social media as one of the biggest avenues for growth. “Between TikTok and Instagram we’ve amassed over 25,000 followers and that accounts for about 70% of our new business,” said Dr. Ashley Milhizer, Founder of Real Results Medical & Aesthetics.

On both platforms, Dr. Milhizer shares educational videos and insights into various medical & aesthetic procedures. Her engaging content not only highlights the quality of care she provides but also educates her audience on the latest trends and treatments in the field.

Originally from Michigan, and a graduate of UC Davis and the Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine & Health Sciences, it was Dr. Milhizer’s personal experience in seeing how natural remedies can significantly impact the body that inspired her to get into the field.

“While I was in school, a friend of mine was diagnosed with stage 3 cancer and was given up to 18 months to live and I became determined to research every kind of remedy that could potentially help,” said Dr. Milhizer. “From a healthy diet, supplements and a host of other naturopathic strategies, we tried everything we could find and two months later he was in remission, and he’s still alive today.”

The power of naturopathic remedies, following an early career path in sports medicine – which enabled her to work with some of the state’s top professional athletes – is what led her to forming Real Results Medical & Aesthetics. The company’s broad depth of services is also what allowed her to expand her reach of clientele beyond athletes to everyone from the Valley’s elite CEOs and stay at home Moms to patients ranging from their early 20s to upper 80s.

The naturopathic services offered at Real Results Medical & Aesthetics include hormone optimization, peptide therapy, IV therapy, natural pain relief, weight loss, food allergy testing and overall diagnostic testing. While the aesthetics side of the business offers services such as hair restoration, skin resurfacing, botox, fillers, microneedling, RF Plasma skin resurfacing, laser treatments, vein removal and body contouring.

ICEYE expands its Earth Observation capabilities with launch of two SAR satellites for mid-inclination orbit on the Bandwagon-2 mission with SpaceX

Mid-inclination orbit provides more SAR-imaging opportunities at middle latitudes of the globe for ICEYE customers.

HELSINKI, Finland, Dec. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — ICEYE, the global leader in SAR satellite operations for Earth Observation and persistent monitoring, announced today that it has launched two new satellites to its constellation of SAR satellites. Both satellites expand the availability of ICEYE’s latest imaging technology to deliver additional 25 cm imaging capacity. The satellites were integrated via Exolaunch and launched as part of the Bandwagon-2 rideshare mission with SpaceX from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California, USA. Both satellites have established communication, and early routine operations are underway. With today’s launch, ICEYE has successfully launched 40 satellites into orbit since 2018, with nine satellites launched in 2024 alone.

The new SAR satellites were launched into mid-inclination orbits; compared to a polar orbit, these mid-inclination orbits provide more than twice the collection opportunities at middle latitudes of the globe. ICEYE customers have many areas of interest in these middle latitudes (+/- 45 degrees), and these customers will benefit from increased persistence over these regions. Customers with imaging interests outside these middle latitudes will continue to benefit from the frequent revisit enabled by ICEYE’s dozens of satellites in polar orbits. ICEYE’s unique mix of mid-inclination and polar orbits provides its customers with deep revisit capabilities for targets all around the globe. The new satellites will serve ICEYE’s commercial missions as part of the world’s largest SAR satellite constellation owned and operated by ICEYE.

Rafal Modrzewski, CEO and Co-founder of ICEYE said: “This launch marks another significant milestone in ICEYE’s ability to provide our customers with a rich diversity of collection opportunities. We bolster our industry-leading SAR constellation and expand our customers’ collection opportunities in the areas most important to them.”

Today’s launch is another step forward in ICEYE’s steady drumbeat of innovative breakthroughs in Earth Observation. This year alone, ICEYE has, for example, introduced Dwell Precise, a new 25 cm imaging mode that offers its customers the highest-fidelity 25cm imaging capability, and adds advanced capability to ICEYE’s line of Dwell products; launched an API that allows customers to directly task its SAR satellite constellation; and launched ICEYE Ocean Vision to provide actionable intelligence for maritime domain awareness.

About ICEYE

ICEYE delivers unparalleled persistent monitoring capabilities to detect and respond to changes in any location on Earth, faster and more accurately than ever before.

Owning the world’s largest synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite constellation, ICEYE provides objective, near real-time insights, ensuring that customers have unmatched access to actionable high-quality data, day or night, even in challenging environmental conditions. As a trusted partner to governments and commercial industries, ICEYE delivers intelligence in sectors such as insurance, natural catastrophe response and recovery, security, maritime monitoring, and finance, enabling decision-making that contributes to community resilience and sustainable development.

ICEYE operates internationally with offices in Finland, Poland, Spain, the UK, Australia, Japan, UAE, Greece, and the US.  We have more than 700 employees, inspired by the shared vision of improving life on Earth by becoming the global source of truth in Earth Observation.
