The Alternate Current (AC) Motor segment to maintain its leadership status throughout the forecast period

By motor type, the Alternate Current (AC) Motor segment held the highest market share in 2020, accounting for more than three-fourths of the global electric motor market revenue and is estimated to maintain its leadership status throughout the forecast period. AC motors are used for obtaining high kilowatt output. They offer better efficiency as compared to induction motors and are used in applications operating at constant speed. Moreover, synchronous motors are used in substations and generating stations, which are connected to bus bars for improvisation of power factor. However, the DC motor segment is projected to manifest the highest CAGR of 9.9% from 2023 to 2032. DC motors are mechanically commutated motors, which are ideal for use in high-speed applications. They are widely used in various medical equipment in the healthcare industry, owing to their size and working efficiency, which boosts the market for DC motors.

The above 75 kW segment to maintain its leadership status throughout the forecast period.

Based on power rating, above 75 kW segment held the highest market share in 2020, accounting for nearly one-third of the global electric motor market and is estimated to maintain its leadership status throughout the forecast period. The 5 kW to 10 kW segment is projected to manifest the highest CAGR of 11.1% from 2023 to 2032. This is owing to rise in demand for high power rating motors for industrial applications.

The automobile-traction motor segment to maintain its lead position during the forecast period

By application, the automobile-traction motor segment accounted for the largest share in 2020, contributing to more than one-fourth of the global electric motor market revenue, and is projected to maintain its lead position during the forecast period. The same segment is expected to portray the largest CAGR of 14.8% from 2023 to 2032. The automobile industry is witnessing substantial demand for green vehicles to safeguard the environment by reducing carbon emissions from the vehicles. Therefore, the trend of using premium efficiency motors in electric cars is gaining traction in the motor vehicles sector. Electric vehicles are witnessing high traction in the market, due to the variety of technological advancements. Electric vehicles are advantageous as compared to conventional vehicles in terms of features such as higher fuel economy and low carbon emission.
