The Global Automatic Motor Starter Market was valued at USD 4.6 billion in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.9% to reach USD 7.3 billion by 2034. The growth is fueled by the surge in industrial automation and the rising demand for energy-efficient operations. Automatic motor starters help control electric motors, enabling streamlined start-stop functions and offering protection from overloads, phase faults, and short circuits. By controlling power delivery, these devices ensure efficient motor operation, smoother startups, and safeguard against potential electrical hazards.
The expanding use of electric motors across industries such as chemicals, oil and gas, manufacturing, and water treatment is strengthening the market. As these sectors pursue sustainable practices and digital transformation, automatic motor starters are integrated with energy management systems to cut energy usage and prevent surges during startup. In addition, the advancement of industrial IoT and smart factory frameworks support the demand for these solutions. During the Trump administration, tariffs on industrial electrical parts, especially those imported from China increased production costs and supply chain disruption. Although the short-term impact was challenging, these trade restrictions also opened new opportunities for domestic production, reducing dependence on foreign sourcing and improving long-term supply stability.
The medium voltage segment will grow at a CAGR of 4.5% by 2034. These systems are vital for high-power operations in sectors like oil and gas, mining, and water treatment, where managing large motors with precision is critical for equipment safety and operational efficiency. Medium voltage starters help reduce mechanical stress during motor startup, making them essential for facilities handling heavy-duty industrial loads under harsh conditions. The demand for these systems is further driven by infrastructure upgrades and rising energy needs across utilities and heavy industries.
The three-phase automatic motor starter segment is expected to reach USD 3.5 billion by 2034 fueled by increased installations in commercial HVAC, smart irrigation systems, and large-scale building infrastructure. These starters with intelligent communication features like Modbus and BACnet, enabling real-time system monitoring, predictive diagnostics, and seamless integration with building automation systems. This aligns with the growing trend toward smarter industrial environments prioritizing energy efficiency, system optimization, and remote-control capabilities.
United States Automatic Motor Starter Market was valued at USD 482.6 million in 2024, bolstered by the adoption of advanced microprocessor-based control systems in industrial automation. The U.S. market is also experiencing strong momentum due to an accelerated transition to digital industrial ecosystems and an increasing reliance on renewable energy. These factors create a favorable climate for expanding connected, low-emission, and energy-conscious motor control solutions.
