AC Motor Market Analysis
Global Alternating Current (AC) Motor Market is expected to register a CAGR of 6.1% during the forecast period (2022 - 2027). The growing use of electric alternating current motors in infrastructure development and growth in the global industrial sector drives the market growth. Electric alternating current motors are used in various industries, including consumer goods, automotive, construction, healthcare, and agriculture. The growth of these industries globally is expected to supplement the market growth.
- Increasing awareness regarding the use of energy-efficient motors and the growing adoption of electric vehicles is expected to support the market growth during the forecast period. The rising construction activities, especially in developing economies, will further accelerate the adoption of electric AC motors. Growing demand from emerging economies and technological advancements are expected to provide numerous growth opportunities in the electric AC motors industry.
- Various developments and initiatives are being taken across industries that augment the demand for the AC motor in the market. For instance, in December 2021, JSW Group unveiled a new green initiative for its employees, offering incentives for electric vehicle purchases, free charging stations, and separate parking facilities at offices. Such developments will drive the AC motor demand across the globe.
- Concerning energy consumption and carbon emissions levels, companies are providing green solutions for their technologies and processes in response to the growing population, rising environmental problems, and emerging energy shortage. The reduction of carbon dioxide emissions in energy-efficient motors, as well as the provision of a healthier environment, are key forces expected to drive the market.
- Various government standards and regulations in multiple areas, combined with certain parameters defined by associations such as IEA and NEMA, may encourage the replacement of existing standard motors in various sectors, further stimulating market demand. Furthermore, government incentives to implement high and premium efficiency AC motors to reduce the financial burden on consumers and governments are expected to bolster the market growth.
- The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the market. Several countries, including Germany, Italy, and India, imposed stringent restrictions on the movement of individuals and hampered industrial activities. As a result, construction projects were halted, resulting in a drop in sales of new electric motors. Moreover, the automobile industry experienced a significant decline during Covid-19.
AC Motor Market Trends
This section covers the major market trends shaping the AC Motor Market according to our research experts:
Growing Demand in Electric Vehicles
- Stringent designing and manufacturing standards to improve motor efficiency may encourage global manufacturers to develop energy-efficient motors, fueling the market significantly. Moreover, the growing production of home appliances, motor vehicles, and other motor-driven systems may favorably impact market expansion.
- The Indian electric motor market is expected to propel over the coming years. The anticipated growth in the market can be attributed to the country's growing number of industries and construction activities, as well as the government's increasing emphasis on adopting energy-efficient motors.
- For instance, in June 2021, the Chairman of Tata Motors stated that the company would aggressively push its presence in electric vehicles (EVs) and launch ten new battery-electric vehicles by 2025 across India.
- The electric vehicle market is witnessing growth globally, with consumers and the government spending significant amounts on the adoption of electric vehicles. For instance, in 2021, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA), consumer spending on Electric Vehicles stood at USD 249 billion, while government spending stood at USD 28 billion. Moreover, consumer spending witnessed a significant rise in 2021, increasing from USD 125 billion in 2020.
- Additionally, governments across various countries are providing subsidies and incentives that encourage the sales of electric vehicles. For instance, the US government offers a federal tax credit of up to USD 7,500 on purchasing an electric vehicle.
