North America Electrical Steel Market Technological Breakthroughs Driving Competitive Edge

 The North America electrical steel market size is expected to reach USD 5.17 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 6.6% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc,.The market is projected to be driven by the increasing production of electric vehicles (EVs) and the rising need to improve energy efficiency in North America.

Electrical steel is an iron alloy, also referred to as transformer steel, silicon electrical steel, and lamination steel. It is a soft magnetic material, which possesses enhanced electrical properties. It finds its usage in various applications such as motors, generators, solenoids, relays, and electromagnetics.

Based on product, non-grain-oriented (NGOES) held a revenue share of over 65.2% in 2024 of the market. NGOES find applications in the entire energy value chain from generators to motors and appliances. It is available in numerous grades depending on properties, composition, and applications.

Based on application, the inductor segment is expected to register a growth rate of 6.7% in terms of revenue over the forecast period. The inductor is mostly used in electrical power and electronic devices for blocking, choking, attenuating, or filtering/smoothing high-frequency noise in electrical circuits, transferring and storing energy in power converters, impedance matching, and other applications.
