Which major factors have contributed to the expansion of the balance shafts market?
The growing demand for fuel efficiency is expected to boost the growth of the balance shaft market going forward. Fuel efficiency refers to a term used to describe how far a car can go on a given amount of fuel. It is a measure of how efficiently a vehicle or device converts chemical energy from fuel into kinetic energy or work. By reducing friction and vibration of the engine, the use of a balance shaft in a vehicle engine leads to a reduction in overall fuel consumption, which can help reduce CO2 emissions and improve fuel efficiency. For instance, in April 2022, the U.S. Department of Transportation, a US-based federal executive department, announced the new fuel economy standards which increase fuel efficiency 8% annually for model years 2024-2025 and 10% annually for model year 2026. Therefore, the growing demand for fuel efficiency is driving the growth of the balance shaft market.
