Power generation companies are increasingly using alternate sources of energy such as natural gas, nuclear power, and renewable to produce clean and sustainable electricity. The decreasing cost of installation of renewable sources of energy is also driving the use of these sources for power generation. This is expected to act as a restraint on the demand for coal in power generation. According to the US Energy Information Administration (EIA), coal's share of the total world energy consumption is expected to decline from 22% in 2040. Renewable is expected to be the fastest growing energy source, with their consumption increasing at an average rate of 2.3% per year till 2040. The continuous shift to alternative sources for power generation will restrain the mining market. The use of renewable energy is helping mining companies reduce power costs and control emissions in the mines. As the solar or wind projects are built close to the mine sites, the cost of connecting to the power grid is also reduced. Site-appropriate renewable energy sources are reliable, consistent, and also economical. BHP and RioTinto have started using renewable energy sources in their mines. According to a report published by EY, RioTinto aims to generate 10% of 20MW – 25MW power demand from renewable energy in one of their mines and expects to reduce its diesel use by approximately 4 million liters, and its CO2 emissions by 12,000 tons. Also, in 2020, Rio Tinto approved the development of a large-scale solar photovoltaic and battery storage system for its western Australian Koodaideri mine. The solar plant will be one of Australia's largest photovoltaic installations at a mining site once completed. According to a report by Fitch Solutions, renewable energy used by mining companies from various sources include 57% solar thermal, 37% of solar PV, and 4% of wind energy.

The stones market is expected to grow to $19.65 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 9.6%. Precision Surface Excavation Machines are becoming more popular because they help to reduce noise and pollution in sensitive areas. Precision surface excavation machines are versatile units that utilize a slicing drum to mechanically unearth materials and have advantages over the customary drilling and blasting strategies. Surface excavation machines are low in noise, dust, and vibration and can cut more precisely and produce a smaller, more consistent particle size thus eliminating the need of a primary crusher. This is particularly important in mines in environmentally sensitive areas where noise and dirt pollution need to be minimized due to environmental regulation and pressure.

The waterjet cutting machine refers to an industrial tool that is capable of cutting a wide variety of materials by using a very high-pressure jet of water. It is used to cut a range of materials and metals using a high-pressure water stream to generate the required cutting power. The water used in this process has been treated to remove abrasive substances and sand. This can be used to precisely cut very thick workpieces. The different types of waterjets cutting machines include 3D waterjet cutting machines, micro waterjet cutting machines, and robotics waterjet cutting machines. The 3D waterjet cutting machines waterjet cutting machine market consists of sales of 3D waterjet cutting machines by entities (organizations, sole traders, and partnerships) that are designed to cut advanced 3D shapes in different work planes. The 3D waterjet cutting machines are 5- and 6-axis waterjet systems designed to perform complex 3D operations. The main technologies of waterjet cutting machines include pure and abrasive and utilize different pumps for operations, which includes direct drive pumps, and hydraulic intensifier pumps. The waterjet cutting machines are used in Exotic metal and Non-Traditional Material Cutting, Ceramic/Stone Cutting, Glass/Metal Art, Gasket Cutting, and others. The end-user industries of waterjet cutting include electronics, metal fabrication, automotive, food processing, aerospace, textile, and others. The global waterjet cutting machine market is segmented - 1) By Product: 3D Waterjet Cutting Machines, Micro Waterjet Cutting Machines, Robotics Waterjet Cutting Machines 2) By Technology: Pure, Abrasive 3) By Pump Type: Direct Drive Pump, Hydraulic Intensifier Pump 4) By Application: Exotic metal and Non-Traditional Material Cutting, Ceramic/Stone Cutting, Glass/Metal Art, Gasket Cutting, Other Applications 5) By Industry: Electronics, Metal Fabrication, Automotive, Aerospace, Food Processing, Textile, Other Industries The global waterjet cutting machine market size grew from $1.16 billion in 2022 to $1.28 billion in 2023 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.2%. The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term.

The market size of waterjet cutting machine market is expected to grow to $1.99 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 11.6%. Increasing demand for environment-friendly cutting processes and practices is significantly contributing to the growth of the waterjet cutting machine market. The stringent government policies towards the usage of chemical fluids in the manufacturing process and increasing companies toward sustainable business practices had led to a shift in industries’ interests towards adopting environmentally friendly cutting methods and practices in sectors such as automotive, mining, electronics, and construction, packaging, and textile. For instance, in 2022, the European Commission adopted a proposal for a regulation that would harmonize conditions for marketing construction products. This proposed regulation was part of a package of proposals that was aimed at making sustainable products the norm in the EU, boosting circular business models, and empowering consumers for the green transition.
