Thus, the rising demand for high-power density, increased penetration in utility applications, rising demand for improving power cycling and thermal capacities will fuel the growth of the power electronics market.

The power electronics market refers to the industry segment that deals with the development, manufacturing, and deployment of electronic devices and systems for efficient power conversion and control. Power electronics technology enables the conversion, conditioning, and control of electrical power, facilitating the efficient and reliable operation of various electronic systems.

The power electronics market has experienced significant growth in recent years due to several factors, including:

Increasing demand for energy-efficient solutions: With the growing emphasis on energy efficiency and environmental sustainability, there is a rising demand for power electronics systems that enable efficient power conversion and utilization. Power electronics technology plays a crucial role in improving the energy efficiency of various applications, such as renewable energy systems, electric vehicles, industrial motor drives, and consumer electronics.

Renewable energy integration: The increasing deployment of renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind, requires power electronics systems to efficiently convert the generated power into usable forms. Power electronic inverters and converters are used to convert the DC power generated by renewable sources into AC power for grid integration or local consumption. The rapid growth of the renewable energy sector has significantly contributed to the expansion of the power electronics market.

Electric vehicle adoption: The transition towards electric mobility has fueled the demand for power electronics systems in electric vehicles (EVs). Power electronics components, such as motor drives, battery management systems, and onboard chargers, are essential for efficient energy conversion, motor control, and charging infrastructure. The increasing adoption of EVs has created substantial opportunities for power electronics manufacturers.

Industrial automation and motor drives: Power electronics systems are widely used in industrial automation for motor control and drives. These systems enable precise speed and torque control, improving the efficiency and performance of industrial machinery. The growth of industries such as robotics, manufacturing, and process automation has driven the demand for power electronics solutions.

Consumer electronics and smart devices: Power electronics technology plays a vital role in consumer electronics and smart devices. Efficient power supplies, battery charging circuits, and power management systems are crucial for the operation and longevity of portable devices, smartphones, laptops, and smart home appliances. The proliferation of smart devices and the Internet of Things (IoT) has increased the demand for power electronics solutions.

In September 2022, Infineon Technologies AG has opened a high-tech chip factory for power electronics and has built a 300-millimeter thin wafer fabrication facility at Villach, Austria by investing 1.6 billion euros.

The emergence of the COVID-19 outbreak has affected the global economy and the power electronics market has also been affected by it as many industries verticals using power electronics were affected by the crisis. The industry players have witnessed disruption in the supply chain for power electronics from the supply and demand sides. However, the market is anticipated to bounce back and will recover from the crisis.
