Private LTE/5g is huge in the energy sector. You'll find it deployed for various IoT and end user devices at oil fields, offshore rigs, and even in parallel to the major carriers in large metro areas. The latter is fairly common with energy utility providers. One of the US's largest energy suppliers in the South operates what is probably the largest private LTE deployment in North America, using their own transmission towers to cover a majority of two states in the US Southeast. In addition to using this to support their own ops, they lease access out to other businesses.
It's also increasingly common to see private LTE/5g deployed to support municipal government operations.
