Executive Summary
The Automotive Power Electronics Market is expected to experience a significant growth rate of 5.1% from 2023 to 2032 owing to rise in trend of electrification across the automotive domain and rising regulations for safety systems.Automotive power electronics encompasses the application of electronic devices and systems for the purpose of controlling and regulating the flow of electrical energy. It has gained significant relevance in modern automobiles, as it contributes to improving safety, efficiency, and overall performance. Key components within automotive power electronics include inverters, converters, and voltage regulators. These components are responsible for managing various functions within the vehicle, such as the battery charging system, electric power steering, and regenerative braking.
The growing importance of automotive power electronics can be attributed to the gradual shift of the automotive industry towards electric and hybrid vehicles. These vehicles heavily rely on power electronics to power crucial components and effectively manage energy consumption. Consequently, automotive power electronics are poised to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of transportation.
Growing environmental concerns surrounding the air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions associated with fossil-fuel-powered vehicles has heightened awareness. In response, electric vehicles have emerged as a cleaner and more sustainable alternative, with almost zero emissions. Notably, advancements in critical components like battery systems and motors have significantly improved in recent years, bolstering the viability of electric vehicles as a practical substitute for traditional internal combustion engine vehicles. As a result, there has been a substantial surge in the global demand for electric vehicles. According to the International Energy Agency's (IEA) Global EV Outlook 2022, electric car sales reached a record-breaking 6.6 million units in 2021, doubling the figures from the previous year.
