Discrete Semiconductors Market Dynamics and Trends
Adoption of Discrete Semiconductors in Electric Vehicles

The demand for discrete semiconductors, which are utilized in numerous EV components, has increased as a result of the global move toward electric vehicles brought on by environmental concerns and government incentives. Powertrains, battery management systems, onboard chargers and other components and systems that are progressively electrified are all included in the construction of EVs. For effective operation, each of these systems depends on discrete semiconductors.

For instance, on 14 April 2021, a semiconductor factory in Shanghai being built for US$ 1.8 billion by the Chinese electronics giant Wingtech Technology will produce power semiconductors for control circuits used in electric vehicle batteries. The investment seems appealing since these semiconductors aren't impacted by American sanctions. The facility, which was constructed in partnership with subsidiary Nexperia, is used to make discrete semiconductors, including transistors and power semiconductors.

Growing Need for Renewable Energy
Due to the global shift toward renewable energy sources including solar, wind, and hydropower, power electronics and discrete semiconductors are in high demand and as components are required for efficiently converting and managing electrical energy supplied from renewable sources. Discrete semiconductors are essential for increasing the effectiveness of renewable energy systems in terms of energy usage.

For instance, on 23 June 2022, Trilogy Metals, in collaboration with the Colorado School of Mines and the United States Geological Survey has discovered the potential for germanium as a by-product during copper production at the Bornite copper-cobalt project. Germanium is a critical element used in modern technologies and demand for renewable energy and advanced technologies continues to rise, the role of discrete semiconductors in enabling these advancements becomes a significant growth factor in the industry.

Rising Government Initiatives

Investments in infrastructure, such as semiconductor fabrication facilities (fabs), research centers, and testing facilities, create an environment conducive to semiconductor manufacturing. Government support for infrastructure development can attract semiconductor companies and promote market growth. Trade agreements between countries can facilitate the import and export of semiconductor products, reducing trade barriers and expanding market access. Bilateral and multilateral trade agreements can benefit semiconductor manufacturers by providing access to a broader customer base.
