VARIABLE FREQUENCY DRIVE MARKET ANALYSIS

Variable Frequency Drive MarketSize and Trends

The global Variable Frequency Drive market size was valued at US$ 18.46 Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to witness a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.60% from 2023 to 2030. A variable frequency drive or Variable Voltage/ Variable Frequency drive, AC drives, inverter drives, AC waveform drives, digital drives, ribbon drives, spindle drives, plenum drives, line speed drives, power cable drives, and flash memory drives are some of the common computer drives that use this technology. A variable frequency drive varies the output frequency and / or voltage of an electric motor to provide better overall system performance at a given operating speed. A variable frequency drive is more power-efficient than other hard drives.

Growing digitization trends and increased digital data production is a major trend in the market

Global oil and gas expenditure is decreasing across upstream, downstream, midstream, offshore and liquefied natural gas sub-sectors. However, the demand for industrial automation products, especially in low and medium voltage drive, is expected to remain steady during forecast period. Currently, AC variable frequency is witnessing a major surge in the petrochemical industry. Air compressor and aerostatic press are both main equipment in the petrochemical industry, which work uninterruptedly and thus, consume maximum electricity. Deploying VFDs is helping end users reduce energy consumption in these applications by 20–30%.

Low voltage drives hold a dominant position in the global variable frequency drive market. This is owing to widespread applications across several industries such as food and beverages, oil & gas, and mining and metals. Furthermore, low voltage range is expected to witness significant growth in the near future, owing to rampant expansion in industrial base and manufacturing capacities across emerging economies.
