Market Highlights
The power supply system covers all aspects: generation, storage, conditioning, distribution, and conversion for space applications. Space missions can last from few minutes to decades; therefore, finding the optimum primary and secondary sources with an architecture that will make the best use remains paramount.
The space industry including space power supply is highly regulated where all parts require a rigorous quality check and legal documentation before their use in a spacecraft. Furthermore, the industry's demand for power supply products is largely impacted by new technological advancements, satellite launches, regulations (EWR 127-1, MIL-STD), etc. Major players have been hammering hard for the advancements in the existing products for meeting the changing market requirements.
SpaceX, Blue Origin, OneWeb, and Virgin Galactic are the key investment recipients in 2019, collectively embraced about US$ 3.9 billion, translating into 68% of the total investments. Despite the lingering COVID-19 pandemic, the space industry witnessed robust growth in the year 2020, making it a record year for the industry. The global space power supply market logged an impressive growth of more than 100% (year-over-year) to reach US$ 2.8 billion in 2020.
