Motor Starter Market Opportunity, Growth Drivers, Industry Trend Analysis, and Forecast 2025 - 2034
Description
The Global Motor Starter Market was estimated at USD 7.4 billion in 2024 and is expected to grow from USD 7.8 billion in 2025 to USD 12 billion by 2034, at a CAGR of 5%, as per the latest report published by Global Market Insights Inc.
With a strong focus on energy savings and reducing operational costs, industries are investing in advanced motor starters, especially soft starters and intelligent starters that help reduce power surges, manage load, and enhance motor efficiency.
Variable Frequency Drives to Gain Traction
The variable frequency drives (VFD) segment held a significant share in 2024, owing to its superior energy efficiency, precise motor control, and reduced mechanical stress on equipment. VFDs not only regulate motor speed but also help extend motor life and lower energy consumption, making them a preferred choice across industries such as HVAC, oil & gas, and water treatment.
Rising Adoption of Low Voltage
The low voltage held a sizeable share in 2024, driven by its widespread use in commercial buildings, small-scale manufacturing, and infrastructure applications. These starters are ideal for controlling motors in systems with voltage ratings typically below 1,000V, including pumps, compressors, and conveyors.
Asia Pacific to Emerge as a Propelling Region
Asia Pacific motor starter market held a sustainable share in 2024, fueled by booming industrialization, rising investments in infrastructure, and growing energy demand across countries like China, India, and Southeast Asia. This region accounts for a significant share of global motor installations, particularly in manufacturing, construction, and utilities.
Major players in the motor starter market are CHINT Group, Emerson Electric, LOVATO ELECTRIC, Kalp Controls, GE Vernova, Rockwell Automation, Mitsubishi Electric, C&S Electric, Siemens, Phoenix Contact, Fuji Electric, LS ELECTRIC, WEG, c3controls, Havells India, ABB, CORDYNE, Lauritz Knudsen Electrical & Automation, Danfoss, Schneider Electric, CG Power & Industrial Solutions, Eaton, Omron Corporation, SKN-BENTEX.
To expand their presence, leading players in the motor starter market are focusing on product innovation, digital integration, and strategic partnerships. Many are developing smart starters with built-in connectivity, allowing remote monitoring, diagnostics, and seamless integration with industrial control systems. Others are expanding their global footprint by establishing manufacturing hubs and R&D centers in high-growth regions like the Asia Pacific and Latin America. In addition, companies are strengthening their service networks, offering end-to-end support that includes commissioning, maintenance, and training to enhance customer loyalty. Tailored pricing strategies, vertical-specific product lines, and aggressive marketing in emerging markets are also being deployed to capture untapped demand.
