To drive market growth, increasing collaborations with NASA and ESA, a focus on electric propulsion for small satellites, and indigenous system development by 2026 will be key.
A fast-growing space propulsion market in Saudi Arabia, driven by Space commission-Vision 2030, focuses on diversity through technology and innovation. In 2023, SSC signed several agreements with space leaders worldwide, such as NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA), for joint development of advanced propulsion systems. Partnerships with private entities such as Busek aim to develop electric and hybrid technologies for small satellites that are vital as building blocks for regional communication and Earth observation capabilities. There is also a growing involvement of research work within Saudi universities within thermal and chemical propulsion, with an appreciation, in particular, of issues related to desert-like conditions. Cooperation with its neighboring GCC countries would strengthen its positioning in regional space missions to induce satellite launch constellations by 2026, marking a decisive leap in its space capabilities.

A joint cooperation agreement for the peaceful use of outer space was signed between the Saudi Space Commission and the French National Centre for Space Studies in December 2021. The agreement offers a framework for collaboration in space activities, such as information and technologies exchanges, capacity building, and workshops, while articulating a mechanism for space-based climate monitoring and establishing a conducive environment for investments in the sector. These factors will likely drive the space propulsion market growth in Saudi Arabia during the forecast period.
