The Role of Grain Oriented Electrical Steel in Electrified Transportation and Renewable Energy

Grain oriented electrical steel finds crucial applications in the production of transformers, electric motors, and generators due to its exceptional magnetic properties. Its unique feature is its grain alignment, which minimizes energy loss, making it ideal for power transmission and distribution. In transformers, it reduces core loss, while in electric motors and generators, it enhances energy efficiency. With these attributes, it plays a vital role in various electrical devices, improving their performance and contributing to energy conservation in applications like renewable energy systems and electrified transportation.

According to Data Bridge Market Research, the North America Grain Oriented Electrical Steel Market is accounted at USD 3,361.98 million in 2022 and is expected to USD 5,545.68 million by 2030. The market is expected to grow with a CAGR of 6.2% in the forecast period of 2023 to 2030.

“Surging demand for steel in motors used in hybrid and electric vehicles boosts the market’s growth”

The North America grain oriented electrical steel market is on the rise due to the surging demand for steel in motors used in hybrid and electric vehicles (EVs). EVs and hybrid vehicles rely on electric motors for propulsion, which require specialized electrical steel for their cores. Grain-oriented electrical steel offers low core loss and high magnetic permeability, making it ideal for these motors. With the growing adoption of EVs and hybrid vehicles in North America, the demand for grain-oriented electrical steel has surged, driving market growth significantly.

What restraints the growth of the North America grain oriented electrical steel market?

“Fluctuation in raw material prices restraints the market’s growth”

The grain oriented electrical steel market faces growth restraints due to the fluctuation in raw material prices. Electrical steel production relies on specific alloy compositions, and any price fluctuations in core materials like iron and silicon can impact production costs. Manufacturers may struggle to maintain competitive pricing amidst volatile raw material costs. Additionally, end-users may delay or reconsider purchases when prices are unpredictable.
