When the primary engine is not running, a device called an auxiliary power unit (APU) is used to supply backup power to vehicles or systems. This device is used in a variety of industries, including aviation and transportation. When the main engines are not running, as during boarding, ground operations, or maintenance, APUs, which are frequently found on aircraft, provide power for onboard systems like air conditioning, lighting, and avionics.
APUs are advantageous because they decrease the need for the aircraft's primary engines to be used for ground operations, which can save fuel and lessen engine wear and tear. By preserving a comfortable atmosphere in the cabin while the aircraft is on the ground, they also increase passenger comfort.
Some of the market's current trends are listed below:
Reduced Fuel Consumption and Emissions: The aviation sector, in particular, has been putting a lot of emphasis on these two areas. This could encourage the creation of more environmentally responsible and fuel-efficient APUs that support overarching sustainability objectives.
Hybrid and electric transportation technologies are becoming more popular, which could have an impact on APUs. As the market shifts towards cleaner technologies, the creation of electric APUs or hybrid systems that combine conventional combustion with electric power may become widespread.
Advanced Materials and Manufacturing Methods: New developments in materials and manufacturing methods may result in APUs that are lighter, more robust, and more affordable. These developments may lead to better performance and lower maintenance costs.
Here are some of the market's growth and driving forces:
Growth in Air Travel: The need for more aircraft and, consequently, more APUs is driven by the rising demand for air travel, especially in emerging markets.
Stricter Emissions Regulations: The need for environmentally friendly APUs is driving manufacturers and operators to invest in more fuel-efficient APUs.
Operational Efficiency: Airlines looking to cut costs may find attractive APUs that increase operational efficiency by lowering fuel consumption and maintenance requirements.
Here are some of the market's risks and difficulties:
Economic Uncertainty: Economic downturns or instability may result in a decline in the demand for air travel and financial difficulties for airlines, which could affect their ability to invest in new APUs.
Rapid developments in electric and hybrid technologies may cause the traditional APU market to collapse if manufacturers and operators find the new alternatives to be more appealing.
Changes in aviation regulations or emissions standards may have an impact on the layout and operation of APUs, necessitating quick adaptation on the part of manufacturers.
The Safran Group, Hamilton Sundstrand Corporation, Honeywell International Inc., UTC Aerospace Systems, JETPOWER LLC, and others are major players in the APU market.
