IE4 Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors Market

IE4 Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors Market Outlook – 2025

The global IE4 permanent magnet synchronous motors market size was valued at $85,153 thousand in 2013, and is projected to reach $206,623 thousand by 2025, growing at a CAGR of 9.8% from 2018 to 2025. IE4 permanent magnet synchronous motors is a super-premium efficiency class motor, which is designed and manufactured according to the energy efficiency motors program to encourage end users to use higher efficiency motors. The aim of utilization of IE4 permanent magnet synchronous motors is to reduce energy consumption and minimize CO2 emissions. These motors are further used to drive industrial fans, pumps, compressors, and other mechanical applications, which fuel their adoption.

In addition, IE4 motors find their application in numerous robotic processes. Factors such as speed, acceleration, torque requirements, control, and angular movements make IE4 motors an ideal choice for robotic system manufacturers. Efficiency and performance have increased owing to rising demand for superior machine control, thereby improving the performance of equipment where IE4 motors are installed. Efficiency and performance have increased owing to rising demand for superior machine control.

Upsurge in adoption of green technologies is gaining popularity across the world. The benefits energy-efficient IE4 motors offer over standard motors include low fan losses and high-quality insulation & lamination. Such factors have a prominent impact on the demand for energy-efficient IE4 motors across various end-use industries. In addition, implementation of stringent regulations and laws related to the environment, such the EP Act and Minimum Energy Performance Standards (MEPS), drives the demand for these motors across the globe. Industries such as material handling systems, compressed air, HVAC, refrigerators, pumps, and ventilation serve as the key consumers of energy-efficient IE4 motors, thus fueling their demand across the globe. In addition, the blowers and the wind power sectors are anticipated to exhibit high demand for these motors in the coming years.

However, increased preference for installation of IE2 motors by domestic manufacturers restrain the growth of the market. These manufacturers may not be able to adapt IE4 motors,  owing to domestic production limitations, thus hampering the IE4 permanent magnet synchronous motors market growth.

The global IE4 permanent magnet synchronous motors market is segmented into product, application, and region. Based on product, the global IE4 permanent magnet synchronous motors market is divided into less than 20 kW, 20–200 kW, and more than 200 kW. In 2017, the 20–200 kW segment held the largest share, due to increase in demand for energy-efficient conveyor systems in manufacturing and automotive industries.

On the basis of application, the market is classified into material handling, liquid pumps, fans & ventilation, cooling compressors, air compressors & vacuum pumps, blowers, and coolers. In 2017, the  air compressors & vacuum pumps segment held the largest share, due to increase in demand for compressors systems in manufacturing and automotive industries.

Region wise, the market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA. In 2017, Asia-Pacific accounted for the highest share, and is anticipated to secure the leading position during the forecast period. This is attributed to industrial growth in the developing countries such as India and China. China is a pioneer in the IE4 permanent magnet synchronous motors market. Therefore, IE4 permanent magnet synchronous motors market share is highest among the Asia-Pacific countries.
