Electric Vehicle Power Electronics Global Market Report 2025

The electric vehicle power electronics market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $12.2 billion in 2024 to $16.52 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 35.5%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing government regulations and incentives, energy efficiency standards, environmental concerns, consumer demand and fuel prices, cost reduction and affordability, collaboration and investment.

The electric vehicle power electronics market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $49.64 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 31.7%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing population, increasing infotainment, increasing electric vehicles, rising need for low-cost and environment-friendly transportation options. Major trends in the forecast period include advancements in battery technology, technological innovations, product innovations.

The forecast of 31.7% growth over the next five years reflects a modest reduction of 0.3% from the previous estimate for this market.This reduction is primarily due to the impact of tariffs between the US and other countries. This is likely to directly affect the US through tariffs on silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFETs, gate drivers, and control modules imported from China and Japan, inflating EV inverter and charger manufacturing costs.The effect will also be felt more widely due to reciprocal tariffs and the negative effect on the global economy and trade due to increased trade tensions and restrictions.

The government's initiative to address environmental pollution is anticipated to drive growth in the electric vehicle power electronic market. This initiative encompasses policies aimed at protecting the environment and conserving natural resources while also considering factors such as affordable energy and economic growth. Through research and regulations, governments promote the efficiency and sustainability of power electronic systems in electric vehicles, thereby mitigating environmental pollution. For example, the U.S. Department of Transportation announced plans in 2022 to ensure that half of all new automobiles sold in the US are zero-emission vehicles by 2030. Additionally, the department aims to establish a network of 500,000 chargers to support convenient and accessible charging for Americans during local and long-distance trips. This governmental initiative is a key driver behind the growth of the electric vehicle power electronic market.

In the electric vehicle power electronic market, major companies are concentrating on developing innovative technological modules to enhance their market position and profitability. One such module is the power semiconductor module, which integrates multiple power semiconductor components into a single package. For instance, in May 2022, Hitachi Energy Ltd. introduced Roadpak, a power semiconductor module utilizing advanced silicon carbide (SiC) technology. Roadpak offers exceptional power density, low power losses, and high efficiency, contributing to improved electric vehicle performance through faster charging, extended driving range, and seamless operation over the vehicle's lifespan.

In December 2023, Hitachi Energy further strengthened its position in the electric vehicle market through the acquisition of COET S.r.l., an Italy-based company specializing in power equipment for electric mobility, rail, and industry. This strategic acquisition enhances Hitachi Energy's global presence and expands its portfolio in high-power electric vehicle charging infrastructure, power electronics, and grid-edge solutions. By integrating COET S.r.l.'s expertise, Hitachi Energy aims to capitalize on the growing demand for electric vehicle power electronics and reinforce its leadership in the industry.

Electric vehicle power electronics encompass the components and systems tasked with regulating and overseeing electrical energy within electric vehicles. They serve a vital function in optimizing energy utilization, improving vehicle performance, and facilitating the smooth operation of electric vehicles.

Electric vehicle power electronics primarily come in the form of microcontrollers and sensors. A microcontroller is a compact integrated circuit incorporating a processor core, memory (both volatile RAM and non-volatile ROM or Flash memory), and programmable input and output peripherals. These microcontrollers find application in various devices, including power integrated circuits (ICs), direct components, and modules. They are constructed using materials such as silicon, silicon carbide, gallium nitride, gallium arsenide, germanium, among others. Microcontrollers are utilized across different types of electric vehicles, including battery electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, and fuel cell electric vehicles. They serve multiple purposes, including advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and safety features, body control and comfort systems, infotainment, telematics, engine management and powertrain control, as well as battery management.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

The sharp rise in U.S. tariffs and ensuing trade tensions in spring 2025 are placing significant strain on the transport sector, especially in areas such as fleet maintenance and logistics. Increased duties on imported commercial vehicles, tires, and engine parts have driven up operating costs for trucking and freight firms, forcing them to either raise shipping rates or accept lower profit margins. Airlines and maritime operators are also under pressure, as tariffs on aircraft components and shipbuilding materials have pushed capital expenditures higher. Meanwhile, retaliatory tariffs in key export markets have weakened demand for U.S.-manufactured transportation equipment, further squeezing revenues. To cope, the industry is turning to fuel efficiency measures, alternative supply sources, and greater automation to manage rising costs while maintaining dependable service.
