Aircraft Battery Market Share: By Offering Type

Based on the offering type, the market is segmented as product and service. The product segment dominated the market in 2019, and is expected to maintain its dominance during the forecast period. The product segment comprises all the battery categories and battery management systems employed in aircraft. Since, the aircraft construction is surging ahead toward better electric architecture, the demand for more enhanced and greater number of batteries is fueling the growth of the product segment in the coming five years.  

Aircraft Battery Market Share: By Application Type

Based on the application type, the market is segmented as propulsion, auxiliary power unit (APU), emergency, and others. The APU segment led the market in 2019, and is likely to maintain its stature during the forecast period. An APU is a small jet engine employed to commence the main engines of any commercial airplane. It is normally installed in the aft portion of the aircraft, under the tail. The main aircraft engines are weighty and demand for a large amount of torque, more than the starter generator can yield. The demand for significantly small aircraft, with the most adequate space utilization, is growing in the recent market scenario, mainly owing to the budget factor. Hence, the small aircraft segments, such as the narrow-body and the wide-body aircraft are garnering more traction, leading to the growth of the global aircraft battery market during the forecast period.  

Aircraft Battery Market Share: By End-User Type

Based on the end-user type, the market is segmented as original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and aftermarket. The OEM segment is expected to depict a higher growth during the forecast period. Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) are accountable for the installation of battery components. This has become a convenient option for various airline companies, as post the delivery of the aircraft, alterations become quite onerous for the aircraft manufacturers.

Aircraft Battery Market Share: By Region

In terms of regions, the North American region dominated the aircraft battery market in 2019, owing to the rising demand for aircraft batteries triggered off by the large prevalent fleet size and increase in the production of commercial and military aircraft in the region. The North American aircraft battery market is estimated to govern the market during the forecast period. On the other hand, Asia-Pacific and Europe are also expected to offer substantial growth opportunities during the forecast period.

Some of the major players in the aircraft battery market are Cella Energy Ltd., Concorde Battery Corporation, Enersys, EaglePicher Technologies, LLC, GS Yuasa Corporation, Marvel Aero International Inc., Marathon Norco Aerospace Inc., Mid-Continent Instruments and Avionics, Sichuan Changhong Battery Co., Ltd., and Teledyne Battery Products (Teledyne Technologies).  

Market Scope & Segmentation

Aircraft battery contains more than one cells responsible for converting chemical energy into useful electrical energy. The battery is useful in a number of functions such as ground power, fault clearing, emergency power, and others. Lead-acid batteries are used mainly in the case of small and private aircraft, while corporate and commercial aircraft make use of the nickel-cadmium batteries.

Aircraft battery for a particular application is basically selected depending upon a number of factors and characteristics of the battery such as weight, volume, discharge rate, charging rate, maintenance, shelf life, and cost.
