More Electric Aircraft Market

Market Overview:

The global more electric aircraft market size reached US$ 1.8 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 4.6 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 16.53% during 2023-2028. Rising construction of airports, increasing utilization to reduce noise pollution and fuel dependency, and growing environment consciousness among the masses represent some of the key factors driving the market.

More electric aircraft (MEA) refers to an efficient airplane system that utilizes advanced electrical units to operate an aircraft by replacing generic pneumatic and hydraulic equipment. It comprises an efficient electric propulsion system integrated with motors, controllers, hardware and software, gearboxes, and cooling systems. It also consists of large lithium-ion batteries, which release electrons that power the propellers of the aircraft. It provides safer, more comfortable, and pollution-free operation. It also reduces the fuel dependency of aircraft and enables sustainable aviation. It does not include complex internal combustion engines and requires minimum maintenance and operational costs. MEA offers better functioning and reduced complexity, vulnerability, and redundancy compared to conventional aircraft due to the removal of hydraulic systems. It produces little or no noise, which is beneficial for the passengers inside the aircraft, employees in the airport, and residents around the airport. Furthermore, as it is efficient, easy to maintain, and affordable, the demand for MEA is rising around the world.

More Electric Aircraft Market Trends:

At present, the increasing demand for MEAs due to their energy-efficient properties represents one of the primary factors influencing the market positively. Besides this, the rising number of airports and scheduled flights to accommodate passengers daily is propelling the growth of the market. In addition, the growing environmental consciousness among individuals due to the rising levels of air pollution and depletion of natural resources is offering a favorable market outlook. Apart from this, there is an increase in the integration of electrical systems in aircraft to reduce the incorporation of movable parts, which are susceptible to wear and tear. This, coupled with the rising utilization of no-bleed architecture to improve power efficiency in airplanes, is contributing to the growth of the market. Additionally, governing agencies of various countries are implying stringent policies on aviation companies to reduce noise pollution caused by aircraft, which is supporting the market growth. Moreover, the increasing utilization of MEAs by aviation companies to operate near cities and dwellings throughout the day without disturbing communities is bolstering the market growth. Furthermore, key market players are manufacturing MEAs integrated with fault-tolerant electric machines, electro-hydrostatic actuators, electromechanical actuators, and fault-tolerant electrical power systems to improve their functionalities.
