As per a recent report published by Fact.MR, the global silicon carbide market is poised to grow at a CAGR of 17% from 2022 to 2032. During the said forecast period, the industry is likely to yield a dollar opportunity worth US$ 1.05 Billion in 2022, expected to close at a valuation of US$ 5.1 Billion. The rising trend of electric vehicles and the robust strength of black silicon carbide are necessitating the deployment of Silicon Carbide solutions.
From 2015 to 2021, the market for Silicon Carbide grew at a CAGR of 16.3%, closing at a value of US$ 988 Million. As of 2022, the industry is likely to reach US$ 1.05 Billion. Prospects heightened after the augmenting applications in plug-in hybrid (PHEV) and electric vehicles (EV). Silicon carbide-based batteries prevent loss of charge and ensure that PHEVs and EVs run for longer distances.
Government policies lay emphasis on increasing the minimum distance that EV manufacturers must ensure in automotive products. Black silicon carbide increases the efficiency and charging capacity of EV batteries which will help in expanding the market grounds for prominent manufacturers.
