WBG POWER DEVICES MARKET OVERVIEW

The global WBG Power Devices Market was valued at USD 1.73 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 2.24 billion in 2025, steadily progressing to USD 17.61 billion by 2033, with a CAGR of 29.41% from 2025 to 2033.

Wide bandgap (WBG) devices are semiconductors which are made up of silicon carbide, and gallium nitride. They are very helpful in providing excellent performance when compared to just silicon. They have higher efficiency and are also capable of operating at higher temperatures. These devices are in high demand.

Wide bandgap devices have many features like resistance to high temperatures and operations in high frequency. Such features have made it applicable in several industries. This is considered as the latest development in the market.

WBG devices are very well known for their energy saving capacities and they operate with higher 10 times more efficiency compared to other silicon-based semiconductors. These factors have contributed in the WBG power devices market growth.

COVID-19 IMPACT

Dip in Demand for Automobiles Decreased Market Growth

WBG power devices are composed of semiconductor material. These power devices are small and are better than their silicon counterparts. The pandemic of COVID-19 reduced the demand for every market around the world. The same effect was seen on the WBG power devices.

WBG devices are used mainly in the automobile industry. During the pandemic automobile sector was impacted negatively as the manufacturing of automobiles stopped temporarily. Decrease in the demand for automobiles reduced their production as well which brought down the WBG power devices market growth during pandemic period.

LATEST TRENDS

Excellent Features of WBG Power Devices to Increase Market Growth

WBG devices are highly efficient and are used in a lot of sectors. The reason for wide application of these devices is some of its advanced features. The features are driving the market growth.

These devices have the capacity to take in high temperature, are very small, work very rapidly and are integrated with reliable power electric components.
