Market Dynamics

The electric motor industry is primarily driven by various factors such as a rise in the demand for new vehicles, electric vehicles, home appliances, industrial machinery, and all other products that make significant use of electric motors. Global population growth has been an instrumental factor in the growth of various industrial and non-industrial sectors including the automotive industries. For example, despite the ongoing economic uncertainties in 2023, many consumers began to make purchases that had been put off during the COVID-19, which bolstered car sales. For instance, in the first half of 2023, Chinese auto sales grew by 9.8%. Similarly, in India, passenger vehicle sales rose by 27%, while commercial vehicle sales grew by 16%. The automotive industry is a major consumer of electric motors. On average, a typical car has nearly 40 electric motors. In addition, rising fuel prices and rising concerns related to environmental degradation have bolstered the demand for electric vehicles.

Moreover, the number of new residential and commercial buildings, development of water supply pipelines, increase in the number of wastewater treatment facilities, public agriculture irrigation systems, and other infrastructure in developing economies is rising eventually driving the demand for electric motors for pumping purpose. In addition, the rise in the number of industrial facilities including food and beverages, chemical and petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, and other industrial facilities globally, also positively affects the electric motor market growth. Moreover, rise in demand for electric motors has been witnessed in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) applications, owing to features such as high torque and lower noise level. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), around 40% of electricity is being used for power electric motors. In addition, the electric motor is more efficient, lightweight, and has a high operating speed. In addition, rise in demand for higher efficiency electric motors in the HVAC sector creates demand for lighter, compact, and silent electric motors. It is noted that HVAC systems with electric motors have seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER) ratings of 13 and higher, which makes them up to 30% more efficient than systems with their brushed counterparts. All these factors collectively drive the growth of the global electric motor market. The cost of an electric motor essentially depends on factors such as the materials used for manufacturing and labor and other costs. The commonly used materials are copper, aluminum, cast iron and steel. The prices of these materials keep fluctuating and since COVID-19, the average prices of metals such as copper and steel have remained higher leading to increased cost of final product that is motors. Furthermore, various other components such as electronic switching controller to switch the voltage to the motor coils in synchronization with the motor‐™s rotation and others also add significantly to the final price of a motor.

Companies are increasingly participating in government-led energy management programs. By participating in such programs, apart from contributing to national energy and carbon savings, businesses directly take advantage from lower costs, reduced exposure to fluctuations in energy prices, and increased competitiveness. After July 1, 2023, implementation of stringent regulations for deployment of IE4 motors may be expected in industrial applications. Moreover, the U.S. amended and implemented the Energy Policy and Conservation Act in the country effective from September 29, 2023. This act prescribes energy conservation standards for various consumer products and certain commercial and industrial equipment, including electric motors. The introduction of such standards that promote the development of energy efficient electric motors are expected to be an opportunity for growth for the key players and electric motor market.

The economic slowdown is a major obstructing factor for the entire industry. The inflation, which is a direct result of the Ukraine-Russia war and few long-term impacts of the coronavirus pandemic, has introduced volatility in the prices of raw materials used for manufacturing electric motors. In addition, the cost of oil & gas has also increased, and many countries; especially, the countries in Europe, Latin America, North America, and Sub-Saharan Africa experience negative impacts in industrial production, including the production of electric motor. Such factors are expected to restrain growth of electric motor market. However, India and China are performing relatively well. In addition, economic slowdown is expected to worsen in the coming years, as the possibility of the ending of the war between Ukraine and Russia is less.

Segmental Overview

The electric motor market is segmented into motor type, application and power rating. On the basis of motor type, the market is divided into alternate current (AC) motor and direct current (DC) motor. By application, the market is classified into automobile-traction motor, automobile-non traction motor, HVAC, medical equipment, industrial machinery, home appliances, and others. By power rating, the electric motor market forecast is segmented into Up to 5 kW, 5 kW to 10 kW, 10 kW to 75 kW, and above 75 kW.  Region-wise, it is analyzed across North America (U.S., Canada, and Mexico), Europe (Germany, France, Italy, UK, and rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (China, India, Japan, South Korea, and rest of Asia-Pacific), and LAMEA (Latin America, Middle East, and Africa).

Electric Motor Market by Motor type

By type: The electric motor market is divided into alternate current (AC) motor, and direct current (DC) motor. In 2020, the AC motor segment dominated the electric motor market, in terms of revenue, and the direct current (DC) segment is expected to grow with a higher CAGR during the forecast period. An alternating current (AC) motor converts electric energy into mechanical energy. The major reason for the utilization of AC motors is the easy availability of AC power. In addition, these motors can be designed and built easily with a variety of features, and different sizes ranging from a few watts to thousand kilowatts. They are mainly used in industrial applications, aerospace, compressors, and machine tools. Furthermore, AC motors are classified as synchronous and induction motors based on working characteristics.

Electric Motor Market by Power rating

By power rating: The electric motor market is divided into Up to 5 kW, 5 kW to 10 kW, 10 kW to 75 kW, and above 75 kW. In 2020, the above 75 kW segment dominated the electric motor market, in terms of revenue, and the 10 kW to 75 kW segment is expected to witness growth at a higher CAGR during the forecast period.

Electric Motor Market by Application

By application, the electric motor market is categorized into automobile - traction motor, automobile - non-traction motors, HVAC, medical equipment, industrial machinery, household appliances, and others. The automobile - traction motor segment accounted for the highest market share in terms of revenue in 2020 mainly due to the increase in adoption of electric vehicles (EVs), and hybrid vehicles. Moreover, the same segment is expected to grow with the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

Electric Motor Market by Region

By region: Asia-Pacific accounted for the highest market share in 2022 and LAMEA is expected to grow with a highest CAGR during the forecast period. Asia-Pacific is a highly developing region with the fastest growing population. According to the United Nations, nearly two-thirds of the world population resides in Asia-Pacific, with China and India alone accounting for one-third of the global population. In addition, the rate of urbanization in Asia-Pacific is also high. Thus, owing to high population growth and urbanization in the region, the industrial, automotive, and household sectors witness a rapid rise, thereby, demand for electric motors, which are extensively used in these sectors is anticipated to rise in the coming years. However, the manufacturing sector in LAMEA has a greater potential for growth, which is anticipated to be a major reason for the rise in demand for electric motors. In addition, countries in LAMEA have large concentrations of oil & gas, which are further expected to enhance the growth potential of the electric motor market in the region.
