Market Dynamics

Introduction:

EWIS stands for Electrical Wiring Interconnect System or electrical wiring interconnection system. As per FAR25, EWIS is the wiring system of an aircraft, installed in any area of the aircraft for transmitting electrical energy, including data and signals between two or more intended termination points. EWIS is responsible to ensure the systems keep functioning even in case of a single fault such as a bundle fire, connector failure, or other external failures that can break signal continuity.

Market Drivers:

• Increase in Global Air Travel- By 2030, the global passenger traffic is forecasted to exceed 12 billion and cross 22 billion by 2053, according to the Airports Council International (aci.aero). The increase in air travel passengers places pressure on fleets necessitating advanced electrical systems which also increases demand for EWIS components.

• Growing adoption of EVs- The increasing use of electric vehicles is boosting the demand for advanced Electrical Wiring Interconnect Systems. By 2030, global EV production is estimated to reach ~75 million units, according to our research. In EVs, complex electrical devices are needed for the safe and reliable distribution of high-voltage power, battery management, and integration with advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS).

• Growth in Electric and Hybrid Aircraft – The aviation industry is shifting towards electric and hybrid aircraft systems gradually, resulting in increasing demand for advanced EWIS systems. These systems are vital for efficient power management and signal transmission in modern aircraft designs.

• Modernization and Fleet Upgrade – Aging aircraft fleet are being upgraded with advanced electrical systems being one of the top priorities. This upgrade process significantly increases the demand for EWIS components, enhancing operational reliability.

Market Challenges:

• Certification Requirements- EWIS components must comply with the applicable regulations of the aviation authority (such as EASA and FAA) governing the region where the aircraft is manufactured or operated. The extensive testing and documentation required for this certification substantially adds up in terms of cost and time.

• High Development and Infrastructure Costs- The high upfront costs associated with extensive research, development, and infrastructure setup for manufacturing advanced EWIS solutions pose a significant barrier to their development and implementation.

Market Opportunities:

• Urban Air Mobility (UAM) Expansion- UAMs are designed to be eco-friendly and also emerge as an effective solution to alleviate traffic congestion. This growth necessitates reliable EWIS solutions to ensure the safe operations of UAMs and aerial vehicles in densely populated areas.

• Integration of Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF): Countries are focusing on sustainable aviation fuel. For instance, the ReFuel European Union Aviation Regulation sets the 2% ratio of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) usage by 2025 and raises the ratio up to 70% by 2050. This transformation entails changes in the aircraft fuel systems, creating opportunities for EWIS manufacturers to supply relevant wiring solutions.

Segment Analysis

By Platform Type

"The commercial aircraft segment accounted for the largest market share of more than 65% during the forecast period."

• The EWIS market is segmented as commercial aircraft, military aircraft, general aviation, regional aircraft, and helicopter.

• Despite being the worst hit from the pandemic, commercial aircraft is expected to remain the largest segment of the market with the share of more than 65% during the forecast period.

• By the end of June 2021, Boeing and Airbus had an order backlog of 5,084 and 6,925 aircraft units. At present build rates, this massive pile of commercial aircraft order backlogs will allow both airframers to continue rolling out aircraft for the next eight to ten years. Upcoming aircraft programs, such as C919, B777X, and MC-21, are expected to further strengthen the position of commercial aircraft in the EWIS market.

By Application Type

"The interiors segment accounted for the largest market share."

• The EWIS market is segmented as avionics, interiors, airframe, propulsion system, and others.

• The Interior segment held the dominant position in 2021 and is expected to heal at the fastest pace during 2022-2027. Increased focus of airliners towards enhancing passenger experience and up-gradation of the existing fleet with new IFE systems are the major factors behind the dominance of the interior segment.

Regional Analysis

"North America accounted for the largest market share of more than 45% during the forecast period"

• North America accounted for the largest market share of more than 45% during EWIS during the forecast period. The USA is the growth engine of the region’s market with the presence of major aircraft OEM’s, tier players, EWIS players, and MRO companies. Most of the major players in the EWIS market have their presence in the region to cater to the emergent needs of OEMs and to be the partner for their upcoming aircraft programs or upcoming fuel-efficient variants of existing aircraft programs.

• Asia-Pacific is likely to witness the highest growth during 2022-2027. The region’s market is majorly driven by increasing aircraft fleet to support rising passenger traffic; the opening of assembly plants of Boeing and Airbus in China for multiple programs, increasing production and procurement of military aircraft owing to the rising defense budget and growing territorial disputes among key economies, and upcoming indigenous aircraft program C919.  China, Japan, and India are expected to remain the growth engines of the Asia-Pacific market.
