Global Satellite Electric Propulsion Market 2023-2029

Global Satellite Electric Propulsion Market 2023-2029

Satellite Electric Propulsion (SEP) is a form of propulsion system used in satellites that involves the use of electrically charged particles to produce thrust. Because SEP uses less fuel and producing low-thrust, satellites equipped with SEP engines can spend more time in orbit, which translates to longer operational life of the satellites. This reduces the need for expensive replacements, reduces waste, and maximizes mission performance. According to the latest estimates, the global satellite electric propulsion market is set to achieve an incremental growth of USD 127.8 million, accelerating at a CAGR of almost 2.83% during the forecast period 2023-2029.
