In a bold move to lead the global energy efficiency market, LS ELECTRIC has unveiled South Korea’s first IE5-rated super high-efficiency motor—a game-changer in the industrial sector.
This innovation is more than just an engineering milestone. With motors accounting for nearly 50% of the world’s electricity consumption, LS ELECTRIC’s IE5 motor offers 3% greater efficiency compared to the widely used IE3 models. While this may sound small, the impact is monumental—it’s equivalent to replacing 1.1 nuclear power plants and saving 9 TWh of electricity annually, worth nearly KRW 1 trillion in domestic energy costs.
Targeting high-consumption industries such as steel, cement, and water treatment, this motor doesn’t just promise cost savings—it transforms sustainability and productivity. By combining these motors with inverters, businesses can expect up to 37% energy savings in precision applications.
What sets LS ELECTRIC apart is its integrated approach. With a full suite of automation solutions, this launch marks the completion of a powerful energy efficiency package, establishing LS ELECTRIC’s leadership in smart energy platforms.
As global regulations tighten—with Europe mandating IE4 motors and Korea expected to follow by 2026—LS ELECTRIC is ready, equipped, and ahead of the curve.
Key Benefits:
First Korean IE5 motor launch
3% efficiency gain over IE3
Saves energy equal to 1.1 nuclear power plants
Enables up to 37% savings when paired with inverters
Supports Korea’s upcoming IE4+ regulatory shift
