Market outlook for 2025
Markets for industrial, life science, and power grew during the first three quarters of the year. Similar development is expected during the rest of the year. However, the market environment remains uncertain, affecting the predictability of these market segments' development.
More mature market segments, meteorology, and aviation, are expected to decline compared to exceptionally high levels in the previous two years. The market for renewable energy is expected to decline during this year due to a slow-down in new wind energy projects. The roads market segment is expected to be stable.
