Market Momentum and Key Growth Drivers

The market's growth trajectory is set to accelerate significantly over the forecast period. The initial phase, from 2020 to 2025, saw the market expand to $9.6 billion, largely thanks to the replacement of traditional hydraulic systems with electric-driven actuators.
However, the period from 2026 to 2030 will see the steepest rise, capturing nearly 40% of the decade's incremental gains as investment in regional electric aircraft and urban air mobility (UAM) platforms intensifies. The final phase, 2031 to 2035, will account for the remaining 44% of growth, as commercial-scale electric and hybrid-electric aircraft enter service and urban air mobility platforms become more commonplace.

The primary drivers of this growth are clear:

• Sustainability Imperative: The global aviation industry is under immense pressure to reduce carbon emissions and noise pollution. Electric motors are a cornerstone technology for achieving these goals.

• Technological Advancements: Innovations in high-power-density motor designs, power electronics, and lightweight materials are making electric propulsion a viable and superior alternative to conventional systems.

• Expansion in Defense: The military and UAV sectors are increasingly adopting electric motors for enhanced efficiency, lighter weight, and improved mission performance.

• Urban Air Mobility (UAM): The burgeoning market for electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft is creating a new, high-demand segment for compact and powerful electric motors.

Competitive Landscape and Market Leadership

The aircraft electric motors market is highly competitive, with a mix of established aerospace giants and specialized motor manufacturers vying for market share. Companies are focusing on innovation, strategic partnerships, and scalable production to solidify their positions.

• Moog Inc. is identified as the leading player, with a strong portfolio in actuation systems and flight controls.

• Woodward Inc. and Ametek Inc. are prominent players known for precision motion control and a wide range of electromechanical systems.

• Aerospace powerhouses like Rolls-Royce plc and Safran SA are leveraging their deep industry expertise to integrate electric propulsion motors into next-generation aircraft programs.

• Specialized manufacturers such as Kollmorgen, ElectroCraft Inc., and Maxon Motor AG provide high-torque, durable, and miniature motors, particularly for UAVs and avionics.

Strategic collaborations and R&D investments are central to gaining a competitive edge. The ability to deliver highly efficient, reliable, and cost-effective solutions is crucial for success in this rapidly evolving market.

Key Market Segments and Regional Hotspots

AC motors are projected to maintain their dominance, holding 65% of the market share in 2025. Their efficiency, durability, and compatibility with advanced control systems make them ideal for a wide range of applications, from propulsion to actuation. The fixed-wing segment is the largest by aircraft type, commanding 35% of the market, driven by the high adoption of electric systems in commercial airliners and military jets. In terms of power, the 10-200 kW output range is the largest segment, with a 50% market share due to its versatility across various aircraft sizes and systems.

Geographically, North America, Asia-Pacific, and Europe are the key growth regions. However, the market's highest growth rates are projected to come from China (12.3% CAGR) and India (11.4% CAGR). This is attributed to strong government support, rapid aerospace manufacturing expansion, and significant investments in hybrid-electric and urban air mobility initiatives within these countries.

As the aviation industry continues its journey toward a more sustainable future, the aircraft electric motors market is set to play a pivotal role, propelling innovation and transforming flight as we know it.
