What are the top economic and technological drivers pushing wide bandgap semiconductors market growth?
The rising demand for electric vehicles is projected to drive the growth of the wide bandgap semiconductors market in coming years. Electric vehicles (EVs) are automobiles powered wholly or partially by electricity, using batteries and electric motors instead of or alongside internal combustion engines. The demand for electric vehicles is rising due to increasing environmental concerns, as consumers and governments prioritize reducing greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution by shifting away from fossil fuel-powered transportation. Growing demand for electric vehicles drives the need for wide bandgap semiconductors, as they improve charging speed and efficiency and reduce energy loss, enhancing overall vehicle performance and range. For instance, in 2024, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA), a France-based intergovernmental organization, electric car sales in 2023 rose by 3.5 million units compared to 2022, reflecting a 35% increase from the previous year. Therefore, the rising demand for electric vehicles is driving the growth of the wide bandgap semiconductors market.
