Advanced EV Inverter Market Analysis

Growth Drivers

• Rapid Growth in Global Electric Vehicle Production: The most basic driver of the developed EV inverter market is the rapid growth in electric vehicle production worldwide. With battery electric vehicles, plug-in hybrids, and hybrid electric vehicles spreading their share of the market in various regions, any electrified form of powertrain includes at least one inverter to regulate the functioning of the motor. Increased inverter demand per vehicle is further increased by the growth in multi-motor architectures, including all-wheel drives with two motors.

• Demand for Higher Efficiency and Extended Driving Range: Driving range is among the most critical purchase factors of EV consumers. State-of-the-art EV inverters have a direct influence on increasing energy efficiency levels by reducing the losses associated with converting the battery to the electric motor. High efficiency inverters enable vehicles to travel further with the same battery pack and will lead to range anxiety being reduced and ensure that OEMs can size batteries more effectively. The use of inverters based on SiC, especially, is rapidly increasing owing to high voltage and temperature requirements and the provision of small switching losses. These benefits will be quantified as the range increases and advanced inverter technology becomes a critical differentiator in both high-end and mass markets of EVs.

• Advancements in battery technology and vehicle software architecture: One of the key drivers of the EV inverter market is technological advancements in the field of power semiconductors. Silicon carbide and gallium nitride devices have better electrical properties than traditional silicon, such as higher breakdown voltage, higher switching speeds, and better thermal behaviour. The properties allow the creation of smaller, lighter, and more efficient inverters, which allow higher power densities and reduced cooling systems. With the increasing manufacturing yields and reduced costs, more and more vehicles segments are implementing wide bandgap semiconductors, which stimulates market growth.

Challenges and Opportunities

Although it has better performance, even advanced EV inverters, especially those based on SiC semiconductors, are still costlier than conventional silicon-based inverters. Increased material costs, specialised production operations and supplier capacity make the system costs high. This high price premium may act as an entry barrier in the entry and cost sensitive EV markets (particularly in emerging markets). OEMs need to strike the right balance between performance advantages and cost objectives, which slows the mass penetration of certain types of vehicles. : Commercial vehicles and electric buses are a large expansion prospect for advanced EV inverters. These cars are loaded to high loads and have high stop and go cycles and thus require more inverter efficiency and durability. Designs of advanced inverters that increase the power output, regenerative braking, and constant operation are also being implemented in the public transport and logistics fleets, which contribute to the long-term market growth.

Market Segmentation

The market is segmented by component, deployment mode, vehicle type, application, end user and geography.

By Inverter Type – Silicon-Based Inverters

Silicon-based inverters continue to be the predominant electric vehicle inverter type due to their relatively low cost, well-established manufacturing and supply chains, and proven reliability. Silicon-based inverters will continue to be used for mass produced electric vehicles due to the need for cost efficiency at the mass production level. In addition, silicon-based inverters provide satisfactory performance (i.e. power) for standardised voltage levels and have limited operating ranges. Although silicon-based inverters experience higher switching losses than their wide-bandgap (WBG) counterparts, increasing improvements in thermal management and control programming will reduce the switching losses associated with silicon inverters.

By Motor Technology – Permanent Magnet Motors

Permanent magnet motors are the most popular type of electric motor, which drives electric vehicles and require a precise and efficient electrical motor inverter. Permanent magnet motors provide the greatest power density of electric motors and are characterized by fast acceleration and high torque production, which allows for outstanding performance of battery and performance-oriented electric vehicles. The use of advanced electric vehicle inverters will allow for precise current control, regenerative braking, and reduce energy losses due to switching losses. As a result, the market for electric vehicles using permanent magnet motors will drive the market for higher frequency switching electric vehicle inverters that support smoother initial acceleration, increased vehicle control, and greater efficiency of the overall powertrain of electric vehicles.

By Vehicle Type: Passenger Vehicles

Electric vehicle inverters that will be used in automobiles will account for the majority of the advanced electrical vehicle inverter market since the market for personal electric transportation has increased dramatically due to increased personal mobility related to electric vehicles as well as government incentives that are being put in place to promote the use of electric vehicles. This category includes battery-powered vehicles and hybrid electric vehicles, and the role of inverters is essential to convert the direct current (DC) stored in batteries to the alternating current (AC) used to power an electric motor when using an electric vehicle. Compact and mid-sized automobiles are expected to create the highest demand for inverters due to their primary usage in urban settings, as they consume less fuel, and produce fewer carbon emissions. In addition, automobile manufacturers are focusing on developing better thermal management of inverters, improving their efficiency, and the integration of inverters into the entire powertrain to improve driving range and performance of vehicles while minimizing system costs.
