Global Ground Power Units (GPU) Market Strategic Research Report

Scope of the Report

The global Ground Power Units (GPU) market size is predicted to grow from US$ 701 million in 2025 to US$ 982 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.0% from 2026 to 2032.

Ground Power Unit (GPU) is a fixed power supply or a vehicle capable of power to aircraft parked on the ground. A GPU can refer to a dedicated electric power supply, battery power supply or a combination of both. Power sources could be a dedicated generator or a central station located at the airport.

United States is the largest Ground Power Units (GPU) market with about 36% market share. Europe is follower, accounting for about 32% market share. The key players are TLD GSE, ITW GSE, Powervamp, JBT Corporation, Acsoon, Textron GSE, Tronair, GUANGTAI, Guinault, Velocity Airport Solutions, Red Box International, Power Systems International Limited (PSI), GB Barberi, Jetall GPU, Aeromax GSE, Current Power LLC, MRCCS, Bertoli Power Units etc. Top 3 companies occupied about 54% market share.

The combination of equipment used to generate electrical energy (power supply and its regulation, control and protection equipment) is called the aircraft power system. The power system has main power, auxiliary power, emergency power and secondary power. It is used to transmit, distribute, and The wires and equipment that converts and controls electrical energy are combined in a certain way, called an aircraft power distribution system or an aircraft power grid. The aircraft power grid is mainly composed of wires and cables for transmitting electrical energy, protection devices for preventing short-circuit or overload damage of wires and equipment, power distribution devices, power supplies, control and conversion devices for electrical equipment, and power inspection instruments.

Power systems and power distribution systems are collectively referred to as aircraft power systems. A device that relies on electrical energy is called a powered device, and a power supply system and a powered device are collectively referred to as an aircraft power system. The main power of the aircraft consists of the generator and its transmission, regulation, control, and protection devices, and supplies power to the aircraft's electrical equipment that is normally flying. When the main power supply is not working, it is powered by the auxiliary power supply or the ground power supply. A common auxiliary power source is a generator driven by an aero battery or an Ground Power Unit. When the main power supply fails to supply power normally in flight, it is powered by the emergency power supply. Commonly used emergency power sources are aerospace batteries and pneumatic turbine generators.

Various power sources form a power supply system together with their regulation, control, protection devices and power grid. These power supply systems have played their part in different stages of aircraft development. At the same time, they also see their advantages and disadvantages in use. Therefore, with the development of aircraft, countries are improving and developing better
