Dublin, May 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "MEA Variable Frequency Drive Market by Type (AC Drive, DC Drive, Servo Drive), Application (Pumps, Fans & Blowers, Compressors, Conveyors, Others), Power Rating (Micro, Low, Medium, High), Voltage, End User, and Region - Trends & Forecast to 2030" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The MEA variable frequency drive market is set to expand, reaching an anticipated USD 1.29 billion by 2030, growing from an estimated USD 0.98 billion in 2025 at a CAGR of 5.6% from 2025-2030.
As industrialization progresses in the MEA region, energy demands soar, necessitating the increased adoption of variable frequency drives (VFDs). These drives enhance motor efficiency, reduce energy consumption, and bolster operational effectiveness. Industries such as oil & gas, manufacturing, and infrastructure are increasingly incorporating VFDs to improve energy savings and operational efficiency.
AC Drives Segment to Lead Growth
The AC drives segment is expected to witness the highest growth rate in the MEA VFD market. Known for their energy efficiency and accurate motor performance, AC drives are being widely adopted across key sectors including manufacturing, oil & gas, HVAC, and water treatment. Their ability to maximize energy efficiency while minimizing mechanical stress positions AC drives as crucial components in enhancing productivity and reducing operational costs.
Pumps Segment Dominates Application
In the MEA VFD market, the pumps segment is anticipated to maintain its leadership position, driven by its potential for significant energy savings and versatile industrial applications. VFDs facilitate precise speed control of pumps, leading to enhanced energy efficiency and reduced mechanical wear, crucial in industries such as water & wastewater, HVAC, and oil & gas.
South Africa Growth Projections
South Africa is poised to register the highest CAGR in the MEA VFD market. This growth is spurred by rapid industrialization and infrastructure development. The modernization of power systems and the increasing use of automation in the mining, manufacturing, and water treatment sectors also contribute to this accelerated demand. Government energy conservation initiatives further incentivize VFD installations across various industries.
Competitive Landscape
Prominent companies in the MEA VFD market include ABB (Switzerland), Siemens (Germany), Schneider Electric (France), Danfoss (Denmark), and Rockwell Automation (US). The report offers an in-depth analysis of these key players, outlining their profiles, recent developments, and strategic market approaches.
