The Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) Market pertains to the global industry that manufactures and distributes electronic devices used to control the speed and torque of electric motors by varying the frequency and voltage of the power supplied. VFDs play a critical role in energy conservation, process control, and extending the life of motor-driven equipment.
With increasing emphasis on energy efficiency, industrial automation, and regulatory mandates for reducing carbon emissions, the demand for VFDs has surged across various sectors including oil & gas, manufacturing, HVAC, water treatment, and power generation.
The global variable frequency drive market is expected to reach USD 46.77 billion by 2033, at a CAGR of 5.7% from 2024 to 2033.
