Abstract : Electric motors are one of the biggest consumers of electricity across the world. They account for almost 40-45% of the electricity utilized by the industry. This growth is almost two times fast as the comprehensive demand for energy across the world and it is the highest since 2010. Therefore, the use of electrical motors should be in an efficient way, so that energy consumption will be kept under minimum value. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of an electric motor is the method of finding the whole impact it will have during the total lifetime Predictive maintenance is one of the few methods for making the motor work in its full potential. This study focuses on different LCA techniques and maintenance techniques of electric motors. © 2019 IEEE.
