Electrical Steel Market Dynamics
This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail as below:
Drivers
- High consumption rate of electrical steel in transformers and motors
The growing global automobile production is a major factor which is driving the growth of the global electrical steel market. The use of electrical steel in automobiles improves fuel efficiency, which drives the consumption of electrical steel in the automotive industry. The growing demand for hybrid and electric is anticipated to further increase the growth of the electrical steel market during the forecast period. Rising consumption of electricity and the growing demand for industrial development are the major drivers expected to enhance the demand for transformers.
- Rise in the number of power generation and transmission projects
Development can be attributed to the upsurge of power generation and transmission projects across the world. The demand for electrical steel has augmented surprisingly and consistently for various use across end-use industries.
- Rise of the demand in automobile industry
Automobiles are made of a range of materials, including magnesium, copper, polymers, steel, aluminium, and carbon fibres. These are the primary materials used in the production of automobiles, components, and parts. Electrical steel's high electrical resistivity, high permeability, low magnetostriction, and low hysteresis loss make it a popular material for automotive manufacture.
- Increase in the demand in manufacturing sector
Manufacturing sector is estimated to be the largest sector in the electrical steel market during the forecast period. This sector's growth is largely attributed to the growth of economies across the world, which is directly related to the growth of the manufacturing sector. Furthermore, the increasing industrialization in developed and developing markets is also expected to further drive the market for electrical steel.
