Where is EMSA’s work focus over the next few years?

A new Policy Brief gives an overview of EMSA’s work focus until 2029 and highlights relevant work outcomes to date.

Electric motor systems account for 53% of global electricity consumption. Yet existing and emerging technologies could reduce their energy demand by 20–30% across industry, infrastructure and buildings. The know-how exists — wider implementation is the key.

The newly released Policy Brief provides a concise overview of EMSA’s work and impact, including:

  • International Standards – Contributing independent research to relevant IEC committees and groups, supporting internationally aligned technical standards.
  • Independent Testing – Including engagement in international round robin testing programmes for Variable Speed Drives and air compressors.
  • Wide Bandgap Industrial Variable Speed Drives – Research roadmap developed in collaboration with PECTA to address challenges.
  • Demand Flexibility & Motor Systems – Identifying best practices and opportunities.
  • EMSA Tools – Practical software solutions such as:
    • The Motor Systems Tool
    • The EMSA CompressorCalc
    • DTI-Hydracalc.

The Policy Brief also highlights EMSA’s publications, capacity-building activities, and its role in supporting evidence-based policy and market transformation worldwide.

EMSA continues to serve as a platform for technical and policy exchange, for international collaboration among its member countries and as an independent source of reliable information.
