The regional market is driven by rapid industrialization and the strong focus on carbon neutrality. The stringent regulatory landscape, including the Energy Efficiency Directive (EED) and Ecodesign requirements, to achieve net-zero targets, drives the adoption of high-efficiency motor control solutions. These products can help reduce power consumption and lead to sustainable operations. Due to the increasing electricity bills, companies are shifting their preference toward VFDs to maximize power utilization, enhance precision, and lower maintenance costs. One of the major drivers is the increased adoption of VFDs in manufacturing, water and wastewater treatment, HVAC systems, oil and gas activities, and renewable energy plants. The rise in distributed energy sources, including solar PV, wind farms, and battery storage systems, also increases the need to develop advanced drive technologies to stabilize the grid and control the variable loads. The electrification of heavy industries and the modernization process of traditional motor systems further contribute to the popularity of variable frequency drives (VFDs).
“DC drives segment is expected to grow at a commendable rate between 2025 and 2030”
The DC drives adoption is on the rise in Europe. The main focus areas for industries include enhancing efficiency, modernizing old systems, and better control. Although AC drives contribute to a large market share amid the growing demand for efficient start-up torques and better speed control, DC drives are still in high demand for metals processing, mining, paper and pulp, shipping, and manufacturing. The Energy Efficiency Directive and Ecodesign guidelines, under which Europe focuses on energy efficiency, are encouraging demands for efficient DC drive systems. These drives have shown remarkable control over energy consumption and have been successful at controlling mechanical stress on machinery. It is an indication of governments’ compliance with net-zero goals.
“Oil & gas segment is likely to grow at a significant rate during the forecast period”
The oil & gas segment represents an essential backbone for energy security in Europe. This becomes possible due to offshore exploration within the North Sea, natural gas production within Norway and the UK, the continuously developing LNG infrastructure, and the ongoing refining within Western and Southern Europe. As Europe begins its transition toward a low-carbon energy sector, its oil and gas industry still relies significantly on motor-driven equipment, including pumps, compressors, drilling rig drives, blowers, and machinery on offshore platforms, all requiring high, precise, and energy-saving control. All these result in Europe’s oil and gas industry requiring a stable demand for VFDs within upstream, midstream, and downstream activities. The energy consumption per unit remains fairly high and significant within Europe due to substantial use within the oil & gas industry. These include uses associated with electricity and oil extraction, gas compression, water injection, and pipeline transport. Subsequent refinery operations involving distillation, cracking, and hydrotreating also lead to substantial consumption. With continuous efforts to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions within the oil & gas sector.
“Germany is projected to capture a major share of the Europe variable frequency drive market during the forecast period”
Germany emerges as one of the largest markets for variable frequency drives due to industrial automation and efficient energy usage. Moreover, the Energy Efficiency Regulatory Act, Energy Efficiency Act (EnEfG), and Ecodesign directive on energy efficiency make it imperative for industries to adopt efficient VFD systems. Moreover, about Industry 4.0, it leads Europe with most German businesses incorporating VFDs in intelligent automation ecosystems with capabilities of AI diagnostics and IoT remote monitoring. These boost the demand for better VFDs with functionalities for predictive maintenance, harmonic suppression, and regenerative braking. The market is dominated by large market participants, further contributing to the market growth across the country.
