Power Electronics Market Driver and Opportunities

Rising Demand for Power-efficient and High-energy Devices to Favor Market Growth

Industrial appliances such as motor drives, power converters, UPSs, and server power supplies consume a large amount of power. Consequently, any improvement in industrial power supply efficiency will result in a significant drop in operating expenses for a business. The demand for high-efficiency power supplies is increasing across the globe due to their improved thermal performance and higher power density. Currently, uninterruptible power supplies are one of the most widely used applications for power semiconductors. Numerous hardware such as computers, communications equipment, data centers, and other electrical equipment are integrated with power semiconductors that protect them against unplanned power outages. The system used for uninterruptible power supplies typically consists of batteries and an IGBT (insulated-gate bipolar transistor) inverter, which have high voltage capabilities. This increases its adoption in high-current-density applications.

High-efficiency power sources are becoming increasingly necessary worldwide. Growing awareness related to efficient energy usage is creating demand for power semiconductors among consumers. Power semiconductors are also becoming an essential component to reduce the carbon footprint of society worldwide. Power semiconductors such as diodes, thyristors, and transistors are highly used for regulating electricity in automotive, consumer electronics, power, energy, ICT, and other industries. Thus, the rising demand for power-efficient and high-energy devices drives the power electronics market.

Emergence of Wide-Bandgap Semiconductor Materials

Technologies based on wide-bandgap semiconductors meet all of the industry's current requirements. As the name implies, they have a bigger bandgap, which allows various electrical devices to operate at high voltages, temperature, and frequency. Wide-bandgap semiconductors have the advantages of increased power efficiency and cheaper cost. For instance, GaN and SiC can improve the performance of power electronics and produce more efficient outputs than typical silicon devices. Further, wide-bandgap materials have a 3eV+ wide-bandgap, which is a critical feature for carrying out high-voltage activities. Thus, the emergence of wide-bandwidth semiconductor materials is expected to supplement the growth of the power electronics market during the forecast period.
