The aircraft engine MRO market in North America is expected to grow from US$ 5.80 billion in 2022 to US$ 7.73 billion by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.9% from 2021 to 2028.
Aircraft engines produce fossil–fuel combustion-like emissions. These aircraft emissions are increasing environmental concerns concerning their impact and effect on the ground-level air quality. Emissions that are regulated, including raw fuel vented to the environment during engine shutdown and hydrocarbons (HC), smoke (SN), oxides of nitrogen (NO x), and carbon monoxide (CO), are the products of combustion in engine exhaust for particular classes of engines. The aviation industry accounts for only 2.5% of CO2. MRO reduces the negative impact on the environment by reducing carbon emissions from aircraft. In 2021, the US government announced its aim for a 20% reduction in aircraft emissions by 2030. Several regulatory authorities are implementing strategies to reduce carbon emissions. Companies such as Honeywell Aerospace are committed to achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2035. In November 2021, Bell Textron Inc. announced that Bell 525 completed its first flight utilizing sustainable aviation fuel. Boeing and Airbus have recently announced that by 2030, their aircraft will fly 100% on SAF. The US government is encouraged to produce SAFs. These factors are propelling the aircraft engine MRO market substantially.
