更小，更平滑，節(jié)省能源：功率和傳感進(jìn)展更好的電機(jī)控制

　　電氣化節(jié)能

　　節(jié)約能源的必要性正在滲透到現(xiàn)代技術(shù)的各個(gè)方面，從家用電器和個(gè)人運(yùn)輸?shù)酱笮?a href='http://www.socialnewsupdate.com/v/' target='_blank' class='arckwlink_none'>工業(yè)設(shè)備和泵站等公用基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施。效率的提高可以通過組合將笨重的液壓或機(jī)械系統(tǒng)更小，更輕的電氣方案，并采用更有效的驅(qū)動(dòng)控制和高效節(jié)能功率半導(dǎo)體升級(jí)現(xiàn)有的電動(dòng)設(shè)備。

　　消費(fèi)者和e-transport

　　諸如能源最低性能標(biāo)準(zhǔn)和能源等級(jí)標(biāo)簽等舉措鼓勵(lì)消費(fèi)者選擇更節(jié)能的電器，如冰箱和洗衣機(jī)。冰箱，利用先進(jìn)的變速控制壓縮機(jī)電機(jī)，代替簡(jiǎn)單的開/關(guān)操作，已被證明，以減少能源消耗顯著，同時(shí)也改善溫度調(diào)節(jié)和減少可聽噪音。在洗衣機(jī)中，類似的，更小和更高效的變速運(yùn)轉(zhuǎn)的電動(dòng)機(jī)允許先進(jìn)的清洗程序，既節(jié)約了熱能，又節(jié)約了用水。

　　就個(gè)人運(yùn)輸而言，電動(dòng)執(zhí)行機(jī)構(gòu)正在無情地取代許多機(jī)制來提高當(dāng)今汽車的燃油效率。據(jù)研究與市場(chǎng)（伺服電機(jī)與驅(qū)動(dòng)市場(chǎng)：2013 - 2018）的報(bào)告，汽車和運(yùn)輸行業(yè)使用的汽車驅(qū)動(dòng)市場(chǎng)預(yù)計(jì)在2018年底達(dá)到18億美元左右。

　　Subsystems such as power steering and water pumps， which are traditionally driven mechanically from the engine， are being replaced by smaller， lighter and more efficient electrical alternatives. Electric traction is also on the increase， evidenced by the growing number of hybrid-electric vehicles （HEVs） in manufacturers’ ranges. The role of the internal combustion engine as a range extender for the HEV is expected to diminish as batteries， battery-management systems and electronic drives continue to improve， ultimately leading to widespread use of vehicles driven purely by electric motors.

　　Other forms of electric transport such as electric bicycles （ebikes） can further offset the use of conventional gasoline and diesel vehicles. The rising popularity of ebikes is driving double-digit growth of this market in Germany. Additionally， ebikes already account for 15% of all new bicycle sales in the Netherlands， as reported by online journal Bike Europe.
