Rising High Power Density Requirements to Drive the Growth of Power Electronics Market Globally


One of the key drivers of the power electronics market is the increasing demand for a higher power density. In the power electronics industry, power density is a major factor, especially in high-power applications. For instance, to increase the operational efficiency of wind power generators, electric rail traction drives, solar power generators, and inverter systems, power electronic devices are used.
These devices offer many advantages, such as simplified circuits, less driving power, and optimum forward and reverse blocking capabilities, which make them fit for higher-power-density operations.
Another factor driving the power electronics market is the growing preference for power electronic devices in utility applications. These devices effectively deliver power with high reliability, security, and flexibility to the power system.
Power electronic devices are of crucial importance in the conversion process of existing electrical grids to next-generation networks. Presently, about 30.0% of all power generation is done via power electronic devices, both at the point of generation and the point of electricity consumption, which is expected to rise to 80.0% by 2030.
The segments of the market are device, voltage, end user, and region. Based on device, the categories are power ICs, power discrete, and power modules. The market in the historical period was dominated by power discrete devices, which will continue to dominate it during the forecast period due to the growing requirement for renewable energy across the globe. But during the forecast period, the highest CAGR would be attained by power modules, as these make electronic devices efficient, which drives their demand.
The region segment of the power electronics market is subdivided into North America, Asia-Pacific, Europe, and Rest of the World. In 2015, the highest revenue was generated by the Asian-Pacific region, where China led the market, whereas in the North American region, the U.S. was the largest revenue generator. In Europe, the market was led by Germany, while the U.A.E was the leader in the Rest of the World subdivision.
Thus, with the growth in demand for renewable energy, the application of power electronics would continue to expand.
