세계의 전기 추진 위성 시장 : 기회, 성장 촉진요인, 산업 동향 분석 및 예측(2024-2032년)

The Global Electric Propulsion Satellites Market reached USD 42.9 billion in 2023 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 12.1% from 2024 to 2032. This growth is fueled by advancements in propulsion efficiency, rising demand for lighter satellites, and a focus on cost-effective space operations. Electric propulsion systems reduce fuel requirements by up to 90% compared to chemical propulsion, cutting launch mass and associated costs. This not only extends mission durations but also allows for increased payload capacity, advantageous for operators managing satellite constellations.

As the satellite industry transitions from chemical to electric propulsion, the need for precision orbital control and fuel efficiency in geostationary and LEO satellite constellations is becoming essential. Electric propulsion supports longer operational lifespans, bringing benefits to both commercial and scientific missions. However, the industry still faces challenges, including high development costs, technical hurdles, and barriers to entry for smaller players. Nonetheless, growth opportunities are emerging, driven by heightened demand for satellite services, global broadband access, and Earth observation initiatives. Supportive regulations and a push for sustainability in aerospace add further momentum, as electric propulsion systems have a lower environmental impact compared to traditional options, positioning the market favorably for long-term growth.

The market is segmented by satellite type into fully electric and hybrid propulsion systems, with the hybrid segment anticipated to grow at a CAGR of over 13% during the forecast period. Hybrid systems combine the high-thrust capabilities of chemical propulsion for initial orbit insertion with the fuel efficiency of electric impulsion for enduring maneuvers and station-keeping, enhancing overall satellite performance and efficiency. Investment in hybrid propulsion is rising as demand grows for satellite-based broadband and Earth observation services.

Based on end-use, the market is divided into government and commercial segments, with the commercial segment dominating, generating over USD 41 billion in 2023. The expansion of satellite internet services is a significant need in the commercial sector, with companies needing efficient propulsion to sustain their satellite constellations. The commercial segment also sees rising investment in Earth observation satellites and data services, where satellite data is increasingly utilized for applications in agriculture, climate monitoring, and disaster management.

North America led the electric propulsion satellites market, holding over 39.5% share in 2023. The rapid growth in the U.S. market is propelled by advancements in technology, increasing satellite service demands, and substantial investments from both government and private sectors. The region's focus on launching large satellite networks for broadband internet, Earth observation, and other services continues to support its leading position in the global market.
