In this report, Technavio highlights the emergence of smart alternators as one of the key emerging trends in the global automotive alternator market:
Global automotive alternator market: Emergence of smart alternators
Changing power requirements of modern vehicles are stimulating vehicle makers to adopt a type of alternator that can adjust its output based on the operating condition of the vehicle. The development of smart alternators increases the scope of converting mechanical energy into electrical energy, thereby decreasing energy consumption. For example, smart alternators can regenerate energy lost while braking by using an electronic motor as a generator to pump energy into the battery.
"Rising stringency of fuel efficiency standards further drives vehicle manufacturers to adopt smart alternators within vehicle models. Smart alternators decrease the overall power consumption by regenerating a portion of wasted energy back into the battery, thereby reducing mechanical loss. This also reduces the amount of fuel being burnt for operations. Operation of smart alternators is controlled by an electronic control unit that automatically activates the system when it detects the state-of-charge in the vehicle to fall below 75%," says a senior analyst at Technavio for research on automotive components.
