Variable Frequency Drives Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2023-2028

The global variable frequency drives (vfd) market size reached US$ 29.2 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, the publisher expects the market to reach US$ 40.7 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 5.5% during 2023-2028.

A variable frequency drive (VFD) is an electrical device that controls the speed of an alternating current (AC) motor according to the requirements of a particular application. By changing the applied voltage supplied to the motor, it helps to control the operating speed, reduce energy consumption and minimize operational costs for a variety of motor-driven applications. VFDs are equipped with sensors that measure important parameters, such as temperature and pressure in order to streamline performance and prevent motor damage. Moreover, the usage of a VFD in conjunction with a machine allows for the utilization of software solutions to monitor the functioning of speed, thus improving overall efficiency, simplifying the system, reducing downtime and improving mechanical resonance. As a result, VFDs are extensively used in conveyors, fans, pumps, fans, blowers, compressors, coolers, grinders, crushers, and chippers.

Variable Frequency Drives Market Trends:

The market is majorly driven by the rising demand for connected devices in commercial, industrial, and residential sectors due to rapid automation. Moreover, the escalating need for stable and reliable transmission and distribution (T&D) networks due to the increasing energy demand on the global level are resulting in the modernization of power infrastructure, which, in turn, is creating a positive market outlook. Also, an enhanced focus on sustainable development is leading to a higher product uptake in a wide range of end use industries, primarily manufacturing, chemical and petrochemical, paper and pulp, and heavy machinery, for diverse applications. Some of the other factors further contributing to the market growth include the increasing penetration of the internet of things (IoT) in industrial applications, favorable government regulations promoting energy conservation, rapid industrialization and the advent of Industry 4.0.
