The 2020 US Department of Energy (USDOE) Motor System Market Assessment Motor (MSMA) was a follow-up to the 2002 MSMA. The assessments studied motor-driven systems for industrial and commercial motors greater than or equal to 1 hp.

Key findings and takeaway excerpts from the 2020 MSMA are in the condensed list below, taken from the report’s Executive Summary. A longer longer version of the key findings and takeaways is also available for download. These documents provide excerpts of the many “nuggets” of information that EASA members can use to identify current market conditions and trends in various motor system sectors and assist in future planning. The complete 252-page 2020 MSMA Report is also available for download.
