Global Automotive SiC Power Semiconductor Industry Trends Report 2023: Large-scale Production, 8-inch Production, In-house Manufacturing, and Strategic Alliances


Dublin, July 06, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Global Trends in the Automotive SiC Power Semiconductor Industry" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The third-generation semiconductor industry has begun to gain momentum in 2022, despite challenges such as repeated outbreaks of the pandemic, economic instability, reduced investment and trades, and supply chain disruptions caused by geopolitical factors. SiC (Silicon Carbide) materials used in power devices have been grabbing market attention due to global efforts to achieve net-zero carbon emissions and the transition to green energy.

From the latest developments of the top five global SiC semiconductor suppliers, it is evident that trends such as scaling and transiting to 8-inch production, in-house manufacturing, and strategic alliances are shaping the overall SiC semiconductor market, according to the analyst.

Meanwhile, global net-zero carbon emission initiatives are also driving the development of electric vehicles. The IEA (International Energy Agency) predicted the global penetration rates of EVs (Electric Vehicles) are expected to reach 17% and 25% by 2025 and 2030, respectively.

Due to the growing importance of maximizing efficiency in consumer electronics products, the market's pursuit of semiconductor materials with low energy consumption and high performance may pave the way for the development of third-generation semiconductors, such as SiC, the analyst added.

Components associated with these semiconductors are rapidly moving from research and development to mass production. As EV (Electronic Vehicles) industry continues to boom, the demand for electric vehicle performance is also increasing. SiC devices characterized by low energy consumption and high performance are expected to be widely adopted in electric vehicles in the future, in line with the trends toward maximizing the performance of consumer electronics.

The development of the third-generation semiconductor industry, represented by SiC, is thus likely to become a global trend.
