High complexity of power electronics may impede product demand
Manufacturing of power discrete components and modules is a highly complex process and increases the risk of technical errors, hampering further developments in the power electronics market. Certain procedures, such as the deposition of Gallium Nitride (GaN) on silicon materials is difficult to achieve under high-voltage conditions. However, the growing preference for GaN and Silicon Carbide (SiC) for low power losses, as well as higher switching frequency and temperature, will offer the potential for improved manufacturing processes. The increasing efforts essayed by market participants to simplify operations through technological interventions could help the industry overcome the current limitations.
Power Electronics Market Analysis
Power electronics market size from industrial applications is expected to exhibit over 5.5% CAGR between 2023-2032. Power modules have extensive industrial applications considering their significant usage in energy-intensive operations that involve moving cranes, Voltage/Current (V/I) monitoring in conveyor belts, industrial rollers, motor drives, smart meters, and forklift trucks. The rising adoption of electrically-powered forklift trucks and mobile cranes is also expected to favor segment growth over the projected timeframe. Furthermore, industrial facilities rely heavily on heavy machinery for day-to-day operations and showcase massive energy needs, representing a higher demand for power electronic products.
Power electronics market size from discrete product segment is poised to record a 4.5% CAGR from 2023-2032. Power discrete devices are widely used across the transportation, power grid, energy, and automotive sectors to reduce power consumption across different industrial applications to facilitate low-noise operations. The rapid adoption of these products can also be accredited to their high efficiency, lower heat generation, voltage regulation, and robust protection from short circuits and electrocution. The introduction of next-generation high-voltage power discrete devices for automotive applications will positively influence the industry outlook.
The discrete segment is classified into rectifiers, metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFET), bipolar junction transistors (BJT), thyristors, and insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBT). The industry share from MOSFET is anticipated to reach over 30% by 2032. MOSFET devices are increasingly employed and are experiencing significant technological evolution as they offer improved energy efficiency, low noise operations, and compact package size.
Asia Pacific recorded more than 55% of the total market share in 2022 and is expected to emerge as a major hub for power electronics due to the increasing penetration of electric cars across countries such as Japan, China, and India. For instance, in 2021, the EV penetration in China soared from 6% in 2020 to 13%. The country also recorded the strongest EV sales in 2021, as per the International Energy Agency (IEA).
The advent of electrification in the automotive sector is emphasizing the need for modules required for power controllers, electric traction motors, DC-DC converters, and onboard chargers. Furthermore, the expanding IT sector, surging number of internet users and the ongoing developments in the field of 5G networks are propelling the demand for new data centers, indicating the substantial need for power electronics.
