Stormwater management represents a growing area of investment and concern for U.S. municipalities, transportation departments, and private property owners. Since 2020, the U.S. has seen an annual average of 22.0 large-scale climate and weather disasters, compared to just 3.3 such events per year in the 1980s and 6.7 in the 2000s. Most significantly, more than three-quarters of these events are related to stormwater, including severe storms, hurricanes, and flooding.
At the same time, construction and urban development across the country are contributing to an expansion of impervious surfaces, such as asphalt and concrete, which further exacerbate flooding and water pollution from unmitigated stormwater runoff. Nearly one-third of the nation's 470,000 assessed water bodies are classified as impaired, with stormwater runoff-from urban areas, roadways, and agricultural operations-a leading contributor.
As such, a growing roster of incumbents and emerging solutions providers are carving out positions to address stormwater management, with solutions ranging from traditional gray infrastructure-i.e., drains, pumps, catch basins, chambers, and decentralized treatment systems-to newer digital platforms and alternative 'green infrastructure' solutions.
This Insight Report and accompanying data dashboard provide a comprehensive evaluation of the U.S. stormwater infrastructure market landscape, including market drivers, trends, forecasts, and company profiles of 30 leading stormwater infrastructure and equipment suppliers.
