According to YH Research, the global market for Low-Cost Satellite should grow from US$ 4590 million in 2024 to US$ 11310 million by 2031, with a CAGR of 13.8% for the period of 2025-2031.

Low-cost satellites are satellites whose life-cycle costs are significantly lower than the average cost of similar satellites. Foreign research community that can not be defined in a quantitative way low-cost satellite, but based on mathematical statistics analysis method can be compared to determine the low-cost category of satellite projects. Earlier, satellite development was a costly and time-consuming procedure only available to governments and major enterprises with enormous resources. However, technological advances and manufacturing methods have made it possible to create and launch smaller spacecraft for a fraction of the cost of typical satellites. These low-cost satellites can range in size from CubeSats (compact, standardized satellites approximately the size of a shoebox) to small satellites weighing a few hundred kilograms. They frequently utilize off-the-shelf components and can be launched as secondary payloads on rockets carrying larger satellites or other payloads, dramatically reducing the cost of getting them into space. This development has created new potential for Earth observation, remote sensing, communication, and scientific inquiry. Low-cost satellites, for example, can track weather patterns, wildlife movement, and agricultural health and provide internet service to remote places. This report covers the low-cost satellite equipment market.

In-depth insight into market trends

The past decade has seen a substantial shift in the space industry with the arrival of what is often referred to as “New Space”. This takes a different approach to satellite deployment: harnessing the miniaturisation of electronics, it enables smaller, more capable spacecraft to be launched in higher volumes and at lower cost. At the same time, there has been a boom in potential applications for both data obtained from space and services delivered from space, such as satellite communications or Earth observations. New Space technology has been perfectly placed to address these needs, with significantly shorter time-to-market than more traditional spacecraft. The deployment of satellite constellations is one of the key trends in low-cost satellites. Satellite constellations are groups of satellites that operate together to provide services like Earth observation, communication, and navigation. These constellations are intended to give global coverage and high-frequency data, particularly beneficial for the Internet of Things (IoT) and remote sensing applications. Several companies are investing in satellite constellations with the objective of making space-based services more affordable and accessible. SpaceX's Starlink, for example, is a satellite constellation of thousands of low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites that aims to deliver high-speed internet connectivity to remote locations worldwide.
