Remote Electronic Unit Market: Increased Application in Aircraft over Spacecraft to Propel Growth
Remote electronic units are used in aircraft and spacecraft platforms, in a variety of applications such as landing gear, flight control surfaces, fuel systems, and ice protection systems. Due to increasing deliveries of aircraft, globally, and the rapidly expanding aviation sector, the aircraft industry is set to remain a significant end user for players in the global remote electronic unit market. In 2018, the aircraft platform segment held the largest share in the REU market, accounting for around four-fifth of the total market share by revenue, and is set to expand moderately to reach the ~US$ 2.8 Bn mark by the end of the forecast period of 2027.
The application of REUs in the maintenance of spacecraft, which accounts for a mere one-fifth of the total revenue of the market, is set to expand at a slow pace of ~3% during the forecast period. Recent years have seen phenomenal advancements in space exploration, with multiple companies developing advanced tech in the aviation industry in the race to get further than their competitors. However, due to the sluggish pace of growth of this industry, its impact on the global remote electronic unit market is expected to be slow.

Rising Air Travel Contributes to Market Expansion in a Big Way
In recent years, there has been a rise in air travel activities, globally, which has significantly contributed to the growth of the remote electronic unit market. Consequently, there has been a spike in the demand for remote electronic units, particularly from developing countries in Asia Pacific. Stakeholders in the remote electronic unit are taking advantage of this trend and ramping up their production capabilities to cater to the rising air traffic volume, which has had a positive impact on the growth of the REU market.
Enhancing Digital Fly-by-wire Systems to Shape Further Evolution of Market
Fly-by-wire systems that replace conventional manual flight controls have been around since the first half of the 20th century in the form of analog systems, designed to increase the ease of control over an aircraft. They eliminate the complexity of the mechanical circuit of electromechanical flight control systems. Digital fly-by-wire systems that were developed as a step above analog systems, are being updated as a fast pace, as the demand for fuel-efficient aircraft and efficiency in flight control has become the focus of product innovation. The fly-by-wire systems that are being used now offer the benefit of performance reliability and safety, and increased efficiency of the flight under normal conditions.
With modern fly-by-wire systems evolving into intelligent flight control systems, this is set to have a significant impact on the further evolution of the global remote electronic unit market during the forecast years.

Remote Electronic Unit (REU) Market: Overview
- According to Transparency Market Research’s latest research report on the global remote electronic unit (REU) market for the historical period of 2017–2018 and forecast period of 2019–2027, rising demand for aircraft led by spike in global passenger traffic and increasing demand for defense aircraft for use in remote electronic units (REUs) are expected to boost the global REU market during the forecast period.
- In terms of revenue, the global remote electronic unit market is estimated to increase from a value of ~US$ 2.7 Bn in 2019 to reach ~US$ 3.5 Bn by 2027, expanding at a CAGR of ~4% throughout the forecast period.
Rising Demand for Aircraft: Key Driver of Remote Electronic Unit Market
- In recent times, there has been a huge spike in the demand for commercial passenger aircraft. This growing demand is due to the ever-increasing volume of global passenger traffic.
- According to the International Air Transport Association (IATA), global passenger traffic rose in 2018 over that in 2017.
- Moreover, the share of Europe-based carriers in international traffic increased in 2018 over that in the previous year.
- Asia Pacific airlines traffic also witnessed a rise in 2018 over the previous year, driven by increase in the number of route choices for travelers and healthy economic growth in the region.
- To cater to this increasing passenger traffic, aircraft manufacturers are ramping up their production capacities through various new programs, such as the Bombardier C series, Airbus A350 and A320neo, and Boeing 737 Max; these are predominantly used for air travel.
Increasing Stability and Better Handling Capabilities with Advanced Fly-by-Wire System: Latest Market Trend
- Rising demand for fuel-efficient aircraft and lightweight flight control systems are primary factors pushing manufacturers to design and develop advanced flight control systems for use in the aircraft industry.
- Fly-by-wire flight control systems use computers to determine and process flight control inputs generated by the pilot or autopilot, and transmit corresponding electric signals to flight control surface actuators. This arrangement replaces mechanical linkage, which means that, inputs by the pilot do not directly move the control surfaces.
- As an extension of modern digital fly-by-wire flight control systems, a system called IFCS (intelligent flight control system) is being designed. This upcoming flight control system would provide increased safety to crew and passengers, as well as optimize aircraft performance under normal operating conditions.
- The key advantage of this system is that, it would allow the pilot to control an aircraft even under failure conditions that would normally cause it to crash.
Stringent Government Regulations - Major Challenge for REU Market
- Various national aviation authorities, aviation organizations, and working groups have laid down different directives for ensuring and accepting the rules and regulations with their requirements in terms of aircraft suitability.
- Furthermore, various periodic reviews, renewals, licenses, approvals, certifications, and other stringent norms about airworthiness, imposed by several civil aviation authorities or national aviation authorities, as well as emergency airworthiness directives, can delay the manufacture of aircraft components.
- These factors are a huge challenge for players operating in the global remote electronic unit market space.
