Covid-19 Severely Impacted the Global Aircraft Electrical System Market

  • Last year, the Covid-19 pandemic catastrophically impacted most industries worldwide, and the Global Aircraft Electrical System Market was no exception.
  • To combat the virus spread, governments of different countries imposed stringent movement regulations, which introduced severe challenges like travel bans & disruptions in the commercial aircraft supply chain.
  • Further, travel restrictions resulted in a massive fall in revenue generation from air traffic and directly impacted the market.
  • However, the gradual upliftment of restrictions enabled the market to recover from the losses.
  • The leading players have started investing substantially in the digital transformation of aircraft electrical systems.
  • Moreover, the up-gradation of the fleet with integrated systems is expected to fuel the market growth in the coming years.

Market Segmentation

Based on the End User, the Global Aircraft Electrical System Market bifurcates into:

  • OEMs
  • Aftermarket

Of both, OEMs are anticipated to dominate the market with the largest share during the forecast period. It owes to massive investments by various countries in strengthening their aerial force leading to the increasing number of military jet deliveries. In addition, several initiatives to conduct research & development programs toward developing technologically advanced electrical systems & enhancing the power efficiency of the military aircraft shall further induce the demand for OEM-based aircraft electrical systems in the years to come. 

On the other front, the demand for Aftermarket aircraft electrical systems is projected to witness significant growth during 2021-26 owing to commercial airlines & defense forces implementing numerous up- programs for upgrading old aircraft. Furthermore, the renewal contracts of fighter & business jets and UAVs & Drones shall also boost the market across the Aftermarket segment during the forecast period.

Generators to Lead the Global Aircraft Electrical System Market Through 2026

The high demand for Generators is primarily due to their mounting demand for different aircraft since they are the primary power source. Generators are powered by the aircraft engine and convert mechanical energy into electrical energy.

On the other front, the demand for Conversion Devices is anticipated to witness the highest growth rate in the coming years owing to their burgeoning use in aircraft to provide top-quality DC & AC power sources, states MarkNtel Advisors in their research report, “Global Aircraft Electrical System Market Analysis, 2021.”

Market Dynamics:

Key Drivers:

  • Increasing inclination toward electric technology to optimize overall aircraft performance
  • Massive expenditure by numerous countries to strengthen their aerial defense & improve national security
  • Adoption of the 'More Electric System' in aircraft reducing the overall maintenance cost & weight of the aircraft
  • Rising demand for fighter jets from emerging economies owing to increasing territorial conflicts

Possible Growth Restraints:

  • The high cost of replacing conventional aircraft with electric technology
  • Soaring thermal management costs due to radiations arising from electrical systems
  • Existing backlogs of aircraft deliveries & electric failures that doubt the reliability of new electric systems

Regional Landscape

On the geographical front, the Global Aircraft Electrical System Market expands across:

  • North America
  • South America
  • Europe
  • Asia-Pacific
  • Middle East & Africa

Of them all, North America is projected to lead the market with the largest share in the forecast period. The regional market is driven principally by the growing number of air passengers, especially across the US & Canada, leading to increased air traffic and, in turn, boosting the market.

Additionally, the superior financial support by the governments of North American countries for the defense sector, coupled with the presence of leading market players & their substantial investments, shall also boost the regional market in the coming years. Besides, the rapidly growing demand for fuel-efficient & low-maintenance aircraft across the region and various improvements in the domestic airline networks are other critical aspects likely to drive the market in North America during 2021-26.

On the other hand, Europe is anticipated to witness significant market growth in the forecast period, owing to the increasing demand for lightweight aircraft, particularly across countries like the UK, Germany, and France. Furthermore, strategic investments by several private firms to advance the product developments in the aircraft electrical system shall also boost the European market.

Nonetheless, Asia-Pacific is expected to demonstrate the highest market growth rate in the coming years owing to the rapidly expanding aviation industries, especially in China, India, and Japan. In addition, the rising demand for commercial aircraft across China & India is also projected to fuel the market growth in Asia-Pacific over the forecast years.

Competitive Landscape

According to MarkNtel Advisors, the leading players in the Global Aircraft Electrical System Market are Ametek, Safran, Astronics Corporation, Amphenol Corporation, Esterline Technologies, Honeywell, Meggitt, Thales Group, United Technologies Corporation, GE Aviation.
