Our research report offers a 4.5-degree view of the Electric Motor market’s drivers and restraints, coupled with their impact on demand during the projection period. Also, the report examines global opportunities and competitive analysis for the Electric Motor market.

Electric Motor Market: Overview

An electric motor transforms electrical energy into mechanical energy. Fans, electric toothbrushes, electric shavers, electric pumps, robots, and windshield scrubbers are just a few examples of the many uses for electric motors. Industries like automotive, pharmaceutical, robotics, and healthcare all use micromotors. It is compact, light, and has a strong torque.

 Electric motors are increasingly used in industrial settings because of their high efficiency, excellent torque, durability, exceptional controllability, and reliability. Some significant market growth drivers are the rise in demand for electric motors from electric car applications, robotics technologies, and HVAC applications.

Electric Motor Market: COVID–19 Impact Analysis

All industries have been negatively impacted by the worldwide health emergency brought on by the COVID-19 new coronavirus’s rapid proliferation. After tight regulations like a statewide shutdown are imposed to limit the virus’s spread, industries must endure a significant loss. As a result, the viral pandemic has changed the market for electric motors. Due to a lack of personnel and travel restrictions, production operations have been halted, and the market has reached a standstill. This is because the enormous market has extensive sales channels spanning multiple nations.

The pandemic crisis hurt currencies all across the world, and several of them experienced rapid depreciation. Due to this, there is a difference between the value of worldwide imports and exports paid for in US dollars. Therefore, currency depreciation costs component makers money and is expected to restrain the global electric motors market further.

Electric Motor Market: Growth Drivers

Increased demand for HVAC systems

HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) systems maintain indoor air quality while also ensuring thermal comfort. Especially for significant office buildings or commercial centers are one of the fundamental building pieces of modern infrastructure. Electric DC motors are frequently employed in HVAC systems to achieve high airflow system efficiency and extend their life and power. Due to the ongoing expansion of their industrial and commercial sectors, Asia-Pacific, particularly China and India, is experiencing a rise in the demand for HVAC systems.

It is projected that brushless DC motors will be used, an introductory class of electric motors used in HVAC and automotive applications. Due to substantial advancements in electric vehicle technology, more brushless DC motors are installed in electric cars (EVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEV). In addition, the need for HVAC systems has increased in the Asia Pacific due to the current development of the industrial and commercial sectors in India and China, which is also propelling the market for electric motors.

The surging demand for energy-efficient motors

Intense electricity usage regulations and growing electricity prices are the main factors driving the demand for energy-efficient motors. Further requiring firms to create efficient products are strict production and design requirements that aim to increase production efficiency. As a result, the market is gradually moving toward using effective motorized systems. But a lack of knowledge about their benefits and a hefty initial investment cost prevent the sector from reaching its full potential.

Electric motors’ use in electric vehicles is growing due to their environmental advantages. These devices help increase a device’s efficiency compared to regular ones and reduce energy consumption-related costs. Additionally, it is anticipated that consumers’ focus would turn toward electric type due to growing sensitivity to environmental concerns and the greenhouse impact, which is expected to support demand. Over the next several years, the order for the product will likely increase due to the need for low-power consumption and goods with increased efficiency.

Electric Motor Market: Segmentation Analysis

In our research scope, the Electric Motor market is segmented into type, output, rotor type, and end-user. Based on rotor type, the inner rotor motor segment is estimated to witness considerable CAGR during 2025-2034. The rotors in the center of internal rotor motors are surrounded by stator winding. In the manufacturing, automotive, and consumer electronics sectors, these motors are employed in applications for robots, CNC machines, automatic door openers, and metal cutting and shaping machines. These applications call for engines with quick speed acceleration and deceleration, strong starting torque, the capacity to perform reversible actions, and compact design. According to the IEA’s EV Outlook 2020, 2 million electric vehicles were sold globally in 2019, a 40% increase over the previous year. This indicates that the need for inner rotor electric motors will be fueled by the rising demand for electric vehicles and the quicker manufacturing of those vehicles in the upcoming years.
