2024 Personal Watercraft Production
Download PDFDataPoint Report
Jet Drive Boats are boats propelled by a jet of water ejected from the back of the craft; they have no propeller and can maneuver in shallow water. PWCs are also driven by jet water and come in several styles: Stand-Ups or Sit-Downs. They are often referred to as jet skis. Sit Downs are designed for one, two or three persons in a sitting position, one in front of the other. PWC Stand-Ups are designed for one rider standing or kneeling on the watercraft.

NA Plate Compactor Production
Download PDFPlate Compactors, also known as plate vibrators, are used to compact soils, base materials, sand beddings and pavers, to promote interlocking.
One key piece of equipment for almost all jobs is a plate compactor There are three main categories of plate compactors: a single plate, reversible plate and heavy-duty compactors, mostly used for soil and asphalt compaction. The most popular are reversible plate compactors because they can go in both directions (forward/backward).
This product information comes from industry interviews and from two proprietary databases maintained by Power Systems Research: EnginLink™ , which provides information on engines, and OE Link™, a database of equipment manufacturers.
Expect the production of Plate Compactors in NA to increase up to 10% by 2030. PSR

Cathode Material Developed for Cheaper EVs
Source: MSN: Read The Article
PSR Analysis: Research in battery technology has developed at a tremendous pace and anything that reduces cost and is more sustainable is a plus. Sodium is far more naturally abundant and easily mined than lithium. It is thus a fraction of the cost per kilogram and much less susceptible to price fluctuations or disruptions in the supply chain.
