The monorail market, in terms of value, is projected to grow at a CAGR of 2.75% from 2016 to 2021. The market is estimated to be USD 4.68 Billion in 2016, and is projected to reach 5.36 Billion by 2021. Increase in urbanization has led to increase in demand for alternative transportation which has drive the monorail system industry.

Continuous technological improvisation led to change in monorail speeds and the distance it covers. Countries such as China, Japan, and Germany have developed monorail systems for longer distance and with faster speed compared to other monorail systems. The advantage of a monorail system is the space optimization for its installation over metro and other modes of transportation to commute. Monorails are considered as “rail of the future” due to improvement and development in the technology. Asian countries such as China, India and others are installing monorail systems as they are cost effective. Monorail systems are also being used for connecting two different lines of metro rails. For instance Chongqing monorail system implemented in China and also for connecting airports & shopping centers to the parking lots.

The growing need for urbanization, environmental sustainability, and increase in the traffic congestion has resulted in an increasing number of transport systems, which is expected to drive the demand for monorail systems. In developing countries, the increase in urbanization has led to an increase in the demand for transportation systems. Traffic congestion on the roads has also increased. This has led governments to develop infrastructure for rail networks such as metros, monorails, light rails, and trams. Countries have mostly constructed metros and heavy rails for travelling to longer distances whereas monorails are used to commute over shorter distances. The efficiency operation and low cost of installation of monorail systems has meant that most countries have opted for this as an alternative mode for transportation.

The Asia-Pacific region is estimated to dominate the monorail systems market, in terms of value, in 2016, as it comprises some of the fastest developing economies in the world, including China, India, and Korea. This has led to an increase in monorail systems installation volumes in recent years, with OEMs catering not only to the domestic demand but to overseas demand as well.

Monorail Systems Market

There is a lack of innovation and R&D for monorail systems. OEMs need to invest heavily in R&D to enhance the ability of monorail systems to improve its speed, reliability and efficiency in order to reduce turnaround time. Maglev monorail systems have a higher installation cost than electric monorail systems. These vehicles have not yet penetrated in the emerging markets. The high installation cost is one of the major factors preventing manufacturers from entering the Asia-Pacific market, particularly in countries such as china, India and Korea.

Bombardier Transportation (Canada) is a major player in the monorail systems market. It is an industry leader in the implementation and installation of monorail systems. It has a strong product portfolio, with fully automated monorail system under brand called “Innovia". Bombardier Transportation and Chinese CSR Nanjing Puzhen entered into a joint venture to develop and manufacture Innovia Monorail vehicles for urban transit systems in China. Bombardier Transportation (Canada) invested in a site in Brazil worth USD 15 million to manufacture its new and improved monorail systems that will strengthen its presence globally.
