Report Description Table of Contents The aircraft ground support equipment (gse) market was worth USD 6.7 billion in 2023 and will be worth USD 10.59 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 5.9% during the forecast period. The Aircraft Ground Support Equipment (GSE) market is strongest due to the steady growth of aviation industry and increasing need for air transportation of both passengers and goods. Global aviation industry is further expected to grow at the rate of 4 to 5 % annually which in turn would increase requirement of ground support equipment needed to handle movement of more aircrafts effectively. For instance the increasing number of commercial and cargo planes result to the need of advanced ground support equipment like tow tractors; Ground power units; Aircraft tugs among others. Other ones are a transition to electric and hybrid GSE that has occurred due to the drive of the aviation sector to decrease CO2 emissions. Esteheld Schiphol in Amsterdam and Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) are embracing electric GSE to fulfill green objectives which is enhancing demand for the technology, new and improved and environmentally friendly equipment in the market. The Aircraft Ground Support Equipment (GSE) market remains promising, particularly with growing trends toward sustainability and electrification of airports. The transition to electric GSE is expected to expand rapidly as airports worldwide continue to acquire electric ground support equipment to minimize their carbon footprint and operating expenses. For example, the electric GSE market is expected to rise with a CAGR greater than 9% up to 2030 since a number of airports including London Heathrow and Frankfort will use electric pushback tugs, baggage carts, and ground power units to comply with the environmental standards. Some of the recent innovation includes the use of autonomous and remotely operated GSE such as the electric-powered aircraft tugs that has started being used with aim at reducing on human error. The application of IoT and smart technologies in GSE also means better management of fleets and optimisation of operations, also boosting the market. This technological shift opens new opportunities for manufacturers and suppliers to develop more innovative and eco-friendly GSE solutions for airports globally.
