What Are the Projected Growth and Market Size Trends for the Silicon Carbide Power Semiconductor Market?
The market size for silicon carbide power semiconductors has experienced massive expansion recently. The prediction for growth is from $1.24 billion in 2024 to $1.57 billion in 2025 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 26.6%. The spikes observed in the historical time frame are credited to the utilization of SiC power devices in charging systems for electric vehicles, the capability of these devices to operate at elevated temperatures, growth in the consumer electronics industry, the use of sophisticated electronic components in power, and the burgeoning automotive and renewable energy sector.
In the coming years, the market size for silicon carbide power semiconductors is anticipated to experience substantial growth, potentially reaching $3.99 billion in 2029 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 26.2%. This growth projection for the forecast period can be linked to factors such as the widespread usage of SiC discrete devices, heightened demand for consumer electronics and wireless communications, increased uptake of electronic vehicles, surging demand for energy-efficient battery-powered portable devices, and the introduction of SiC power semiconductors. Technological advancements, entry of new competitors seeking to acquire technology, a rise in innovative processes, product innovations, and technology introductions are some of the leading trends expected to define this forecast period.
What Is Driving the Growth Trajectory of the Silicon Carbide Power Semiconductor Market?
The increase in the prevalence of electric vehicles is predicted to propel the growth of the silicon carbide power semiconductor market. An electric vehicle (EV) utilizes one or more electric engines for propulsion. The rise in electric vehicles is due to technological advancements, regulatory backing, consumer demand, and industrial investment. Silicon carbide (SiC) power semiconductors significantly contribute to the enhancement of electric vehicles by increasing efficiency, reducing weight, and boosting overall performance in comparison to conventional silicon-based semiconductors. As EV manufacturers aim to enhance their vehicle’s performance and improve the consumer driving experience, the use of these semiconductors continues to rise. For example, in January 2024, the U.S. Energy information administration, a US-based entity, reported that in 2023, 16.3% of total new light-duty vehicle sales in the U.S were made up of hybrid vehicles, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, and battery-electric vehicles combined. Therefore, the increased prevalence of electric vehicles is fostering growth in the silicon carbide power semiconductor market.
