28 Think:Act Aircraft Electrical Propulsion which we are able to judge planned (and claimed) new technical developments. In terms of regulation, we believe that three areas should be monitored most closely. NOVEL AIRCRAFT ARCHITECTURE CERTIFICATION For over 50 years commercial aircraft have consisted of gas turbine-powered tube-and-wings architecture; to reap the full benefits of Electrical Propulsion (e.g. the propulsive efficiency gains of distributed propul- sion), airworthiness authorities will have to find ap- proaches to certify novel aircraft architectures for passenger flight. EMISSIONS REGULATION Drawing on the potential parallels with the automo- tive industry, where much of the impetus towards electrification has come from regulatory changes (e.g. Corporate Average Fuel Emission (CAFE) targets for OEMs, the banning of diesel engines in cities such as Paris from 2020, and the UK's plan to phase out inter- nal combustion engines in all new vehicles from 2040), we believe that any moves to tighten emissions regulation further will accelerate the move towards Electrical Propulsion in aircraft. AIRSPACE REGULATION The introduction of Urban Air Taxis will require the ability to operate these aircraft in complex, urban envi- ronments, almost certainly autonomously, and in con- junction with existing airspace users; given the slow progress to date in incorporating UAVs into controlled airspace, air traffic control regulations may inhibit the speed at which Urban Air Taxis can be introduced. COMMERCIAL ORGANISATIONS For commercial organisations, the next step of evaluat- ing the impact of aircraft electrification boils down to traditional challenge of good strategy, although the con- siderations vary between incumbent aerospace compa- nies and new entrants and investors. INCUMBENTS Existing aerospace suppliers face both the potential rev- olution from Electrical Propulsion and the ongoing evo- lutionary change brought about by the More Electric Aircraft (MEA) trend; the latter is continuously increas- ing electrical content and eroding demand for hydrau- lic, pneumatic and mechanical systems, leading to the need to develop electrical systems capability that can be deployed both for MEA and for Electrical Propulsion. NEW ENTRANTS AND INVESTORS These organisations need to evaluate the specific proj- ects which they are considering backing, as well as the intrinsic attractiveness of the aerospace sector; com- pared to many industrial sectors, aerospace offers both higher growth (typically 1.5-1.7x GDP in the long run) and higher margins. Roland Berger's research indicates that industries undergoing major change often afford greater oppor- tunities for new entrants, since the capabilities devel- oped over many years by the incumbents become de- valued, and discontinuities open gaps that fast-moving new entrants can address. Often, these gaps emerge in areas that are relatively lower margin activities that incumbents are less interested in pursuing. Given the current bias of incumbents towards conventional ar- chitectures and power sources, new entrants have an opportunity to disrupt the current industry structure, especially by initially targeting these lower margin gaps and building market share, before moving fur- ther up the industr y. Within the strategy development process an analysis of the market, customers, competitors and internal ca- pabilities is essential, leading to the development, eval- uation and selection of a set of strategic options. Incum- bents can then decide whether to watch, wait and attempt to adapt to the upcoming changes, or try to lead the change in the market. If incumbents choose to act now, the most pressing current issue is to develop an effective Research and Development strategy, whilst also preparing their organisations for a potential cultural transformation so as to be able to respond to rapid change. New entrants, be it early stage start-ups or well established players in adjacent industries, need to have a clear market entry strategy, well-adapted to the specific challenges of the aerospace sector. As usual at times of high uncertainty, scenario plan- ning can help shed additional light on how the industry may evolve, whilst strategic war gaming allows organisa- tions to test their planned strategies against competitor responses in a realistic, simulated environment.
