About Smartricity
We're not just improving motors. We're redefining industrial performance.
Our Mission
Est. 2016
At Smartricity Motors, our mission is to solve real-world industrial challenges through purpose-built electric motor systems engineered for superior performance, efficiency, and reliability. We design and manufacture application-specific solutions for critical sectors including Renewables, Agriculture, HVAC, Mining, Oil & Gas, and Industrial Manufacturing, giving customers an alternative to generic motors with products optimized for their exact needs.
We pair advanced hardware with AI-powered software to deliver real-time optimization, predictive maintenance, and actionable analytics that help customers run smarter operations. The result is motor technology that can reduce size and weight, improve energy efficiency, increase uptime, and deliver lasting value across demanding industrial applications.
Electric motors are the world's largest electricity consumers, accounting for over 50% of global electricity consumption"
Our Values
The principles that guide everything we do.
Innovation
Pushing the boundaries of motor technology to solve tomorrow's challenges today. We invest over 15% of revenue in R&D and hold multiple patents in motor architecture and AI-driven control systems.
Reliability
Engineering products that perform flawlessly for decades in the harshest conditions. Our motors are validated through accelerated life testing, thermal cycling, and vibration analysis before they ever reach the field.
Sustainability
Committed to enabling the clean energy transition and reducing our environmental impact. Every motor we ship is RoHS-compliant and designed for maximum energy efficiency across its full operating range.
Partnership
Working closely with customers as true engineering partners, not just suppliers. From initial concept through volume production, our engineers work alongside your team to optimize every detail.
Our Journey
From startup to global leader in application-specific motors.
Founded in Toronto
Smartricity launches as a machine-learning predictive-maintenance startup focused on industrial electric motors.
Motor Design Pivot & European Manufacturing Centre
With our research complete, we expand from analytics into designing and building our own purpose-built motor products, and open a Bologna, Italy manufacturing centre to anchor our European wind motor production.
Renewables Debut
Enter the renewable-energy market and deliver first commercial motors to wind turbine customers.
COVID-19 Ventilator Effort
Manufacture and supply critical blower motors for the Baylis Medical and Ocalink Pantheon ventilator programs during the pandemic.
Heavy-Industry Expansion
Broaden the application portfolio into hydropower, oil & gas, and mining.
AgriPro Launches
Launch AgriPro smart pumps with Power-over-Ethernet for indoor vertical-farming irrigation.
Solar Tracker Market
Enter the utility-scale solar tracker market with the SolarPro line of high-torque slew-drive gear motors.
Global Production Network
Stand up production in Mexico City and scale Asia-Pacific manufacturing through Bangkok and Guangzhou to meet rising global demand.
Americas Manufacturing Hub
Open the Americas Manufacturing Hub in New York for domestic-content compliance.
PitchPro 2000 & GenPro Launches
Launch the disruptive PitchPro 2000 system, and introduce GenPro micro-generators for small-scale wind and hydro.
10-Year Anniversary 🎉
Celebrate a decade of building purpose-built motors — and we're just getting started.
Manufacturing & Quality
World-class facilities with rigorous quality standards and full regulatory compliance.
Global Production Network
Our flexible manufacturing footprint spans six countries, allowing us to optimize for cost, quality, lead time, and regional content requirements. Each facility operates under the same unified quality management system, ensuring consistent performance across every motor we build—regardless of where it's produced.
We maintain vertically integrated production lines with in-house winding, machining, assembly, and end-of-line testing. Every motor undergoes comprehensive functional testing—including hi-pot, surge, vibration, and thermal cycling—before it leaves the factory floor. Full lot traceability ensures that every component, from lamination steel to bearing grease, can be tracked back to its source.
