LONDON, April 13, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- According to The Business Research Company’s research report on the electrical steel market, increasing demand for electric and hybrid vehicles is significantly contributing to the growth of the electrical steel market. Electrical steel has high flux density and low iron loss properties, and is thus used in electric motors to realize high motor efficiency. For instance, in countries like China, the US, and Europe, the sales of electric cars increased by nearly 160% in the first half of 2021 over 2020 in the same period. According to research firm Wards Intelligence, US hybrid vehicle sales in 2021 jumped 76% over the previous year. Thus, increasing demand for electric and hybrid vehicles will contribute to the growth of the electrical steel market.
The global electrical steel market size is expected to grow from $24.80 billion in 2021 to $26.28 billion in 2022 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.95%. The growth in the market is mainly due to the companies' rearranging their operations and recovering from the COVID-19 impact, which had earlier led to restrictive containment measures involving social distancing, remote working, and the closure of commercial activities that resulted in operational challenges. The global electrical steel market share is expected to reach $33.12 billion in 2026 at a CAGR of 7.50%.
