Government initiatives to develop energy efficiency, infrastructure and safer water create growth opportunities, finds Frost & Sullivan’s Industrial Automation and Process Control team

Singapore – June 7, 2017 – Several factors are sustaining growth potential in the Southeast Asia and Australia-New Zealand motors and drives market despite reduced investment and sluggish economies. These include the adoption of smart sensors and government initiatives to develop infrastructure, improve energy efficiency, and provide safer water. Successful companies will be those that become one-stop providers, offer best-in-class systems, and build wide portfolios.

End users expect this effort to eliminate problems at a later stage, save them time, and allow them to customize their purchase with low servicing and maintenance cost.”

Trends and developments driving growth in the Southeast Asia and Australia-New Zealand motors and drives market include:

  • Motors market boost in Vietnam, Indonesia and Malaysia due to significant investment;
  • Motors and drivers manufacturer expansion plans into emerging countries such as Vietnam and the Philippines;
  • A surge in foreign investment in Thailand’s food and beverage industry that will drive demand for low-voltage (LV) integral horsepower (IHP) motors; and
  • Plans to build 90 solar power plants in Indonesia, which will boost the use of LV motors in the power generation industry.

“While obvious advantages are anticipated with the implementation of Internet of Industrial Things (IIoT), results are more likely to be felt in more developed countries such as Singapore and Australia. Growing economies may have opportunities, but they still lack infrastructure. Right now, the effort is to help these countries become ready for digitization, which is unlikely to be achieved in the short term,” observed Ramanathan.
