Astronics Corporation has announced that it has delivered 350 shipsets of its EmPower UltraLite G2 Power System since its launch in 2022. The company has a backlog of 300 more cabin power systems to be delivered by the end of 2024.

The EmPower UltraLite G2 system is linefit offerable with aircraft OEMs, and is also available for retrofit applications, making it a good fit for carriers with mixed fleets that want to provide a consistent passenger experience.

“Our goal was to intersect the market need for high-power USB Type C with a lighter weight solution,” said Jon Neal, president of Astronics AES. “While we were optimistic about the industry adoption rate, the universal market reaction across all regions, aircraft platforms, and installation applications has exceeded our expectations.”

EmPower UltraLite G2 is Astronics’ newest system, and uses a distributed zonal architecture, leveraging a next-generation power supply with a claimed efficiency exceeding 93%, and system intelligence at the seat. As a result, the system can provide up to 60W of power at every seat, with a combination of USB Type A and the latest USB Type C outlets. The company says the G2 reduces overall system and per-seat weight by 30% to 40% when compared with som other power solutions currently installed.
