Brushless DC motor Market Data & Statistics

Market Dynamics

Introduction 

What is brushless DC motor?

The brushless DC motor market is one of the fastest-growing segments of the global electric motor market, driven by increasing demand for energy-efficient, compact, and dependable motor products. Brushless DC motors have extensive applications in various industries such as automotive, consumer electronics, industrial automation, HVAC, and robotics because of their high efficiency, low maintenance, and excellent performance. The future of the brushless DC motor market is defined by factors such as technological advancements, growing use in electric vehicles, and the need for sustainability all around.

Market Drivers:

Increasing Demand for HVAC Systems:

• The rising demand for HVAC, which is Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning, is driving the demand for brushless DC motors. These motors are often used in HVAC systems because of their precise speed and temperature control, energy efficiency, and lower maintenance.
• With the increasing global population, there is a significant rise in the demand for HVAC systems, as growing urbanization increases the need for climate control in residential, commercial, and industrial spaces to ensure comfort, air quality, and energy efficiency. Additionally, growing awareness about indoor air quality and the need for temperature regulation in both homes and workplaces is accelerating the adoption of advanced HVAC technologies.

Wide Adoption of Electric Vehicles:

• The growing demand for electric vehicles (EVs) and the push for sustainability are also crucial drivers of brushless DC motors in the automotive sector. According to a forecast by the IEA, the stock of EVs (excluding 2/3 wheelers) across the world will reach around 250 million by 2030, and 525 million by 2035, as a result, more than one in four vehicles on the road will be electric by 2035.
• Also, on average, the EV stock is projected to grow by 23% annually from 2023 to 2035. The brushless DC motors for electric vehicles are a modern evolution of the traditional brushed DC motors, as they do not rely on mechanical brushes for commutation. Therefore, they are widely used in electric vehicles (EVs) because they offer a powerful combination of efficiency, reliability, and performance.

Market Challenges

Widespread Accessibility of Inexpensive Brushless DC Motors:

• The brushless DC motor market is highly fragmented, with both domestic and international players. In this type of market, the quality of the product stands out as the major differentiator. While unorganized sectors offer low-cost alternatives for local markets, organized players focus on advanced and efficient motors for industrial use. However, accelerating competition from substandard alternatives may erode consumer trust and impact product preferences. These are obstructing the key manufacturers from developing the product and hindering the brushless DC motor market worldwide.

Market Opportunities

Accelerating Demand for Consumer Electronics:

• Digital devices such as washing machines, dishwashers, vacuum cleaners, and smart electric fans are widely available and accessible in the global market. Due to their long operating life, brushless DC motors offer a prolonged life span to electronics that are used daily for the long run, contributing to a significant reduction in power consumption, and thus, creating a significant opportunity for the proliferation of the brushless DC motor market globally.

Segment Analysis

By Speed Type 

“501-2,000 RPM is projected to be the fastest-growing segment during the forecast period.”

• The brushless DC motor market is segmented by speed type into <500 RPM, 501-2000 RPM, 2000-10000 RPM, >10,000 RPM.
• 501-2000 RPM is projected to be the fastest-growing segment during the forecast period because it offers a balance between low-speed and high-speed applications. This speed range is crucial for applications requiring both accuracy and power, contributing to the segment's substantial market share.
