Back to basic physics:
Depending on design, electric motors can be constant power or
constant torque (or some combination of two) devices.
Three phase AC motors are generally simpler in design and better
behaved than either either single phase AC motors or DC motors.
Permanent magnet synchronous 3Ø AC motors (available now) closely
approach the theoretical limits of electromechanical motor systems
in general.
Modern power electronics and control systems give us essentially
perfect control of voltage, current, and frequency in AC systems.
Intelligently combining the above allows us to design efficient
electromechanical systems which match nearly any complex supply
impedance. These systems also happen to live longer, fail less
often, and reduce both battery bank and inverter requirements.
The market (arguably free on so many levels, and obviously not on
so many others) can address this using current technology. System
sizing math not has changed fundamentally in several decades but we
are getting closer to those fundamental limits.
Industrial systems are a bit ahead of the consumer market in some
areas but behind in others. As one very basic example, Turbocor's
maglev compressor has created a few waves in the commercial and
light industrial sector but I fully expect some fascinating trickle-
down benefits over next few years <http://www.turbocor.com/
