Non-Grain Oriented Electrical Steel Market Opportunity Drivers: What’s Unlocking New Revenue Potential?
The increasing embrace of electric vehicles (EVs) is anticipated to fuel the expansion of the non-grain-oriented electrical steel market in the future. An electric vehicle is a type of automobile that operates on an electric motor, drawing power from a battery which can be recharged externally. Non-oriented electrical steel improves the performance of the electric motor when utilized as a core material in electric vehicles; consequently, the growing uptake of electric vehicles drives up the demand for non-grain oriented electrical steel. For example, a report released by Kelley Blue Book, a US-based Cox Automotive firm, in January 2024, revealed that a record 1.2 million car purchasers in the United States opted for electric vehicles in 2023, representing 7.6% of the total U.S. vehicle market, an increase from 5.9% in 2022. Hence, the increasing embrace of electric vehicles is propelling the non-grain-oriented electrical steel market.
