Traction Inverter Market

Global Traction Inverter Market Report Overview

Traction inverters are used for the conversion of supplied energy, which is then used to drive motors in the most efficient way.

In this report, we have considered the traction inverters installed in electric vehicles and rails, forklifts and golf carts. Industrial traction inverters have not been considered under the scope of research. Since the last couple of years, traction inverters are being used in most of the electric vehicles as they are one of the most important components of the electric propulsion system. The global traction inverter report is segmented on the basis of vehicle type, technology, sales channel and regions.

Factors influencing the Traction Inverter Market Growth (Market Dynamics)

The need for a higher level of integration in automotive and transport industries is growing day by day. The concept of electro-mobility and an electrical machine combined with all the power electronics required for a traction inverter is attractive when it comes to sensitive factors such as weight restrictions and system costs. Nowadays, most electrified vehicles including locomotive, trams and metros, contain semiconductor modules of SiC (silicon carbide) and Si-IGBTs. The evolving trend of mechatronics to integrate electric components of a vehicle and mechanical parts and assemblies requires modules such as semiconductors with a high level of power density. Thus, semiconductor is the only molded packaged technological solution for this ongoing demand to achieve high-performance and cost-effective solutions.
