Latest News- Electric Aircraft Market: Hybrid is expected to lead the Technology segment during 2024-2028

The Electric Aircraft Market is being driven by Increasing requirement for clean and quiet aircraft

The Electric Aircraft Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 14.76% during 2023 and 2028. During this period, the market is also expected to show a growth of USD 7199.1 million. In the aircraft manufacturing sector, there is a growing emphasis on producing lightweight aircraft that can carry substantial loads while maintaining or enhancing overall performance. This trend is driven by the need to reduce the weight of aircraft, particularly in the context of electric aircraft where batteries account for approximately 65% of the total weight. To address this challenge, manufacturers are turning to advanced materials such as carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP). CFRP offers the mechanical strength of metal but is significantly lighter and more malleable, enabling designers to create innovative, lighter aircraft configurations. By utilizing CFRP and other lightweight materials, manufacturers can reduce the overall weight of electric aircraft, making them commercially viable and competitive in the market.
