The rising global population and urbanization, major increases in passenger traffic rates by 40% by 2030 are eminent.

That calls for development of wider rail networks and acquisition of more locomotives to cater for this volume. Furthermore, the trend towards sustainable modes of transport has put railways in a rather promising light as alternatives to road and air transport, as a result of the very limited emission of greenhouse gases. Besides, growth in demand for effective movement of freights in e-commerce smart cities is also seen as a key booster to the locomotive market.

Most evidently, the enhancement in battery technology and charging infrastructure is the primal driver of these environmentally friendly solutions. Meanwhile, automation and artificial intelligence have taken locomotive operations to an unsurprisingly different level in terms of safety and fuel efficiency.

Inverter components have created a niche for themselves and are ruling the locomotive market with a 45% market share.
It is because of their capability of efficiently converting DC power into AC for the traction motors. On the other hand, motors come up to form about 30% of the market. There has been growth noticed in motors as well, which can be contributed to their growth with the demand for electric locomotives and advancements in motor technology. While other elements, such as controllers, transformers, and auxiliary systems, take only 25%, their importance cannot be gainsaid.
