Innovation is improving electric motors in five key ways
Summary
Electric motors account for more than 40% of global electricity consumption. Without efficiency improvements, global energy consumption from electric motors is expected to rise by 13,360 TWh annually by 2030. Some innovators claim up to 60% reduction in HVAC system energy use, which could significantly curb rising energy consumption. Some key innovators improving power density are Linear Labs, Focused Magnetics, Magnax and YAS
E-Circuit Motors uses a cloud-based CAD/CAM platform that leverages PCB manufacturing to print stators for coreless axial flux motors and a virtual gearbox for mass manufacturing. Meanwhile, the optimization for high-volume manufacturing involves using innovative software platforms and designs to make electric motors smaller and lighter motors. and the E-circuit Motors.
