Increasing Demand for Optimizing Ground Operations Drive Ground Support Equipment Market Growth

Published: Jun 2024

Global ground support equipment market is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR of 14.3% during the forecast period (2024-2031). The market growth is attributed to the growing demand for effective ground support equipment (GSE) is rising along with the volume of passengers. Additionally optimizing ground operations as airports work to manage more aircraft movements and quick turnaround times globally driving the growth of the market. Airports mostly use GSE to provide aircraft with services in between flights.

The primary purpose of ground support equipment is to ensure that aircraft operate safely both during landing and takeoff at the airport. Ground power operation, cargo, and passenger loading are all included in the GSE. For instance, in December 2023, DHL Express UK announced a £16.0 million ($17.3 million) investment in electric ground service vehicles and infrastructure at East Midlands Airport, demonstrating international trade is being supported with electric power. The new equipment includes 28 electric tugs, 5 state-of-the-art el ectric ‘nose lifter’ vehicles that lift aircraft to push them back from their parking stands, five high-loaders, and 6 electric belt-loaders to lose load shipments.

The airplane is serviced with equipment in between flights. Ground support equipment serves the purpose of assisting aircraft operations while they are on the ground, as its name implies. For instance, in August 2023, SAHCO PLC introduced new ultra-modern ground support equipment. Skyway Aviation Handling Company PLC (SAHCO) has expanded its aviation ground support equipment (GSE) fleet with new ultra-modern equipment to adjust to its expanding business activities.

Market players are offering innovative solutions for ground support equipment driven by a powerful lithium-ion electric drivetrain for cost-effective, quiet, and energy-efficient operation. For instance, in October 2021, Textron Ground Support Equipment Inc. introduced its new TUG® 660 Li belt loader, powered by a high-performance lithium-ion electric drivetrain to offer quiet, energy-efficient, and low-cost operation.
