Electric drives have become necessary for efficient speed and motion control of electric motors. The electric drives are primarily categorized into two types: AC and DC. The current market trends are favorable for AC drives because AC motors are more energy efficient than DC motors and do not have unreliable commutators. So,while the market growth of DC drives remained almost flat in recent years, the market for AC drives is expected to see linear growth.Most of the major vendors have seen declining/flat growth during 2014-2015 due to

few major global economy imbalances. We forecast the market to move at low growth till 2018 as an effect of this economic imbalance. Factors such as the increase in the implementation of industrial robots, rising need for energy efficiency, growing urbanization, installation of renewable energy plants are some of the drivers in this market. These factors have enough potential to accelerate the market at a CAGR of 4.52% during 2016-2021.

The e-bike technology has developed gradually. Earlier, e-bikes were bulky because of the use of lead-acid batteries; however, with the use of nickel–metal hydride, nickel–cadmium cell, or lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries in newer models, the weight of e-bikes has reduced significantly. These batteries are lighter with increased capacity, and thus improve the performance of the bikes in terms of range and speed. In 2001, e-bikes with pedal-assist and power-assist systems were introduced. A typical e-bike requires 7-9 hours to charge the battery, providing a range of 25-30 miles with a speed of 20 mph.
