Induction Motor Market Drivers
Robust Structure of Motor
The rough physical structure of the motor is predicted to be a major driving factor for the growth of the induction motor market. Induction motor are robust in nature and can be operated in any climatic conditions. Moreover, the absence of slip rings and brushes in the motor induction eliminates the chances of sparks, which makes the operation safe even in the most explosive working conditions. In addition, induction motor is cost effective, highly reliable and the maintenance is very less, which is expected to propel the growth of the induction motor market in the forecast period 2021-2026.
Rise in Production of Electric Vehicles
The electric car market has witnessed rapid evolution with the ongoing developments in automotive sector and favourable government policies and support in terms of subsidies and grants, tax rebates. As induction motors especially three phase are widely used in electric vehicles because of high efficiency, good speed regulation and absence of commutators is analysed to drive the market growth. In addition these motor also serves as an alternative of a permanent magnet in the electric vehicles. Hence rise in production of electric vehicles is analysed to drive the market. In 2019, Ford has invested $1.45 billion in Detroit plants in U.S., to make electric, autonomous and sports utility vehicles, which is mainly aimed to increase the production of the vehicles thereby impacting on the high procurement of the induction motors. In 2019, Toyota announced plans to invest $749M in expanding the U.S. manufacturing facilities to increase the production of the electric and hybrid vehicles. In 2020, General Motors had committed boost its electric vehicle production by investing more than $7 billion. Moreover governments of several countries have been investing heavily for the development of electric vehicles. In 2019 German government has committed to invest more than $3 billion to expand electric car market growth in the region. Hence these investments and developments are analysed to be the key drivers for the growth of the electric vehicle market and thereby the growth of induction motor market during the forecast period 2021-2026.
