Globally, the market for electric motors is estimated to reach $129 billion by 2020, when industrial and automotive vehicles are considered together. Why such a huge demand? People need energy efficient electric motors; although more expensive at purchase, their long term benefits outweigh the initial cost – both in the environmental benefits and the cost savings.
A few years ago, the U.S. Department of Energy estimated that industry could reduce energy used by motors by 11 to 18% if currently-existing cost-effective technologies and best practices were used. To find out how much you could save, the University of Minnesota provides formulas for you to determine your actual annual cost to operate your motor-driven equipment – and then to see what it would cost if you used premium efficiency motors.
In general, energy efficient motors increase the efficiency of machines by approximately 20% which in turn reduces the cost of energy consumed. Interesting tidbit of information: AC motors “accounted for the highest revenue generating motor” in 2014. So, just think about how machines that use these motors can contribute to a company’s bottom line when energy efficient models are chosen and then carefully maintained.
