The Global Aircraft Auxiliary Power Unit Market Size is anticipated to reach USD 4.3 Billion by 2030, it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.20% during 2022-2030.
Aircraft Auxiliary Power Unit Market Overview:
Rapid technological advancements in this sector and competition among global market players are expected to drive the auxiliary power unit market over the forecast period. Additionally, rising e-commerce activity and widespread use of APUs across the entire trading truck are expected to boost the market over the coming years. Moreover, an increase in air travel and an increase in the requirement for electric aircraft are expected to fuel the market during the forecast years.
The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted the aircraft auxiliary power unit market. Demand for new commercial aircraft has declined due to reduced passenger travel worldwide during the pandemic. Additionally, supply chain restrictions on the transportation of key components required for auxiliary power unit manufacturing have impacted the market. Nonetheless, the situation has improved in 2021 as passenger traffic has increased as several airlines have resumed aircraft deliveries and ordered new aircraft.
The need to produce aircraft that are fuel-efficient, quiet, and have low carbon emissions may drive research and development of APU technology in the future. The development of fully electric APUs has increased over the years as the electrical architecture of aircraft has increased. The benefits of using these electric APUs could provide further growth opportunities for the market in the future.
