Nidec, renowned globally for its prowess in electric motors, is purposefully executing a long-term strategy to transform into a multi-faceted industrial technology leader, mirroring the diversified business model of Bosch. This ambitious undertaking, outlined in its "Vision 2025" and a 2030 sales target of 10 trillion yen, centers on expanding beyond its traditional motor core into high-growth sectors.

A key pillar of Nidec's evolution is its aggressive foray into the electric vehicle (EV) components market, especially with its E-Axle traction motor systems. Nidec aims to secure a significant global market share in this rapidly expanding segment, reflecting Bosch's deep and broad involvement in automotive electrification. They've been expanding production lines for EV chargers and components for energy storage systems in various regions, including the US and Mexico, aligning with a "region-for-region" strategy.

Furthermore, Nidec is significantly strengthening its presence in telemarketing data sustainable infrastructure and energy solutions, encompassing wind power generation and battery energy storage systems (BESS). Acquisitions, such as those in scroll compressors and machine tool manufacturers, demonstrate a clear intent to diversify into industrial automation, robotics, and comprehensive commercial and home appliance solutions.

Through a combination of organic innovation and strategic global M&A, Nidec is building a portfolio of integrated solutions across various industries. This systematic diversification of technology and market reach is paving the way for Nidec to become a comprehensive engineering and manufacturing powerhouse, much like the widely recognized and diversified industrial giant, Bosch.
