An on-board charger (OBC) is a device that charges the traction battery of an electric vehicle (EV), hybrid electric vehicle (HEV), or plug-in hybrid car. The on-board charger mechanism of an electric car that transforms the grid's AC input to a DC input, which then charges the battery. The electronic components used in on-board chargers (OBC) give a way to recharge the battery from the alternating current (AC) mains, either at home or via plugs found in private or public charging stations.

Companies employ onboard battery charger technology that is very efficient due to its cutting-edge power switching technology and magnetics. Furthermore, it is operated through an isolated CAN bus connection that is SAE J1939 and ISO11898 compliant. The Hybrid and Electric Vehicle on-board charger consists of a unit that contains a variety of signal conditioning solutions, integrated high voltage isolation AC-DC converters, AC rectifiers, dual bridgeless power factor correction (PFC), gate drivers, error amplifiers, and many other power electronic components.

KEY FINDINGS

COVID-19 IMPACT

Lockdown Distorts the market

The COVID-19 pandemic has compelled governments all around the world to prioritise medical services. As a result, governments are diverting the majority of their cash towards the healthcare industry, hurting government investments and incentives for the Hybrid and electric vehicle sector. Furthermore, the countrywide lockout compelled the electric car production plants to reduce their entire operations. The COVID-19 epidemic has caused delays in efforts and projects related to the development of hybrid and electric car onboard chargers. Furthermore, the epidemic has a favourable influence on the enterprise's business operations, which benefits the market as a whole. This has had an effect on the industry.

LATEST TRENDS

Launch of new products and Technological Features to stimulate market expansion

As the petrol is a fossil fuel, it is not a renewable source of energy and will be depleted in the future. It is critical to discover and deploy alternative fuel sources to promote sustainable development. This entails the usage of electric cars, which do not require petrol and are more cost effective than traditional automobiles. EVs have several benefits, including lower fuel consumption (petrol, diesel and petrol) and lower exhaust emissions, which greatly boosts their global demand. During the projection period, this is likely to increase the need for on-board chargers equipped with electric or plug-in hybrid automobiles. The majority of EVs are currently equipped with on-board unidirectional battery charging systems. Aside from on-board battery charging systems, certain cars enable off-board chargers to charge their batteries. The recent and enormous investments in Electric Vehicles (EVs) indicate a paradigm shift in the transportation sector. Grid-to-Vehicle (G2V) is the most basic method of integrating an EV's battery charging system with the power grid, which will require electricity to charge their batteries. Furthermore, V2G functioning requires just the usage of battery chargers for EVs with bidirectional power flow capabilities and bidirectional communication with Smart Grids. Moreover, a number of firms have begun to actively pursue such two-way charging technologies.  Thus, the process of developing new launches and technological features is a major trend that is creating opportunity for the industry to flourish. The market's overall expansion is primarily the result of these recent changes.

• According to the International Energy Agency (IEA) — 18% of global new passenger-car sales were electric in 2023, accelerating demand for advanced on-board chargers

Growing Technological Advancements to support market expansion

Hybrid and Electric Vehicle On-Board Charger battery range is continually expanding, with versions already available with ranges of up to 600 miles. Truck and van body proportions are larger than passenger vehicle body sizes; they can hold more batteries for a longer range. Large electric motors can provide massive quantities of torque for towing and carrying capacity. Given these advances, on-board charger demand is projected to stay strong over the predicted period. Many governments in rich and developing nations have devised green mobility plans that include prohibiting diesel vehicles and offering incentives to electric vehicle buyers. Increased sales of passenger electric vehicles, as well as a rise in the number of chargers, will eventually accelerate hybrid and electric vehicle On-Board Charger growth. Together, these elements are encouraging market expansion, which is raising business revenues. As a result, the market will grow thanks to the growing Technological Advancements.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

Chargers are not standardised which Will Prevent Market Expansion

There is no alternate charging option for electric vehicles' batteries. The scarcity of charging stations in most places is a key impediment to the growth of the worldwide Hybrid and Electric Vehicle on-board charger industry. Furthermore, insufficient and inconsistent infrastructure, as well as range anxiety, might be an issue for electric vehicles and endanger the traveller. Furthermore, in underdeveloped nations, the deployment of supportive infrastructure for electric vehicles is limited. Charging such cars is more challenging in rural locations, where many individuals do not have a designated parking place, making it impossible to charge an electric car at home. This will be a significant impediment to market growth during the forecast period. This could be a significant issue limiting market growth. If this issue is resolved, the market will immediately begin to grow.
