The global alternator market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.81% during the forecast period.
An alternator is an electromechanical device that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy and it works on the principle of electromagnetic induction. Different types of alternators include salient pole types and cylindrical pole types which find their applicability in the automotive, marine, oil & gas, and mining sector as they provide a reliable source of electrical power for various equipment and systems. The increased automotive and oil & gas production along with the rise in marine vessel manufacturing is driving the global alternator industry growth, thereby expanding the global alternator market size.
Bolstering automotive production accelerates global alternator market growth
Alternators are essential for vehicles as they provide electrical power to various systems and accessories. There is a higher need for alternators to support the electrical requirements of the vehicles with more cars being manufactured. Additionally, advancements in automotive technology, such as the integration of more electrical components and the growing popularity of electric and hybrid vehicles, further contribute to. the global alternator market growth. According to the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (OICA) in 2022, global passenger car production increased to 7.96% in 2022 compared to the previous year.
Rise in Marine vessel production
There is an increased need for electrical power in vessels as marine activities expand, such as commercial shipping, offshore exploration, fishing, and leisure boating. Alternators play a critical role in supplying electricity for various marine systems, including propulsion, navigation, communication, lighting, refrigeration, and entertainment. The rise in vessel manufacturing propels the expansion of the global alternator market size. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations in 2022, Africa's fleet and fishing vessels had increased compared to other countries and it comprised 23.5% of the world’s fishing vessels.
Global alternator industry growth is driven by increased oil & gas production
Alternators provide reliable and continuous electrical power for essential equipment, machinery, and systems involved in exploration, drilling, pumping, and processing activities. The increased oil & gas production is expected to drive the global alternator market growth. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration report in 2023, the global OPEC crude oil production increased to 34.17 million barrels per day in 2022 from 31.66 million barrels per day in 2021. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA) in 2022, consumption of natural gas in India is expected to grow by 25 BCM, registering an average annual growth of 9% until 2024.
Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to dominate the market.
The Asia-Pacific will account for a significant share of the global alternator market due to the growing marine activities, oil & gas, and EV production. In 2021, under the 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-2025) the Chinese government implemented strategies like summarizing and analysing the regulations to improve marine equipment production. In December 2022, Mahindra & Mahindra planned to invest Rs 10,000 crore (US$ 1.2 billion) in an EV manufacturing plant in Pune, India. These developments drive the demand for alternators in Asia Pacific.
Substitute availability will restrain the global alternator market growth.
Alternators face competition from other energy storage technologies, such as batteries and fuel cells. These alternative technologies are becoming more advanced, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly, which can affect the demand for alternators in certain applications, thereby restraining the global alternator market size expansion. In November 2022, Honda announced that it would launch a fuel-electric vehicle in 2024 which uses hydrogen and oxygen to create electricity that powers the vehicle.
