As the global demand for sustainable transportation solutions grows, the electric vehicle (EV) market is undergoing unprecedented expansion. Particularly in India, a government-led EV revolution is rapidly transforming this vast market, with electronic components playing a critical role in this change, providing essential technology support for the new generation of electric vehicles.
Current Status and Prospects of the EV Market
The global electric vehicle market is at a crucial turning point, driven by government policies and technological advancements, with adoption rates rising swiftly. Policies in Europe, China, and the USA, along with increased consumer awareness, have continuously matured these regions’ markets. The International Energy Agency (IEA) predicts that global electric vehicle sales will grow exponentially in the next decade, with market shares expected to rise from 15% in 2023 to 40% in 2030 and surpass 50% by 2035.
In India, the government’s “FAME India” (Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of Hybrid and Electric Vehicles) scheme has set clear targets to accelerate the adoption and production of hybrid and electric vehicles through fiscal incentives and manufacturing support. In 2023, India’s EV sales hit a historical high, particularly in the cost-effective and versatile two-wheeler and three-wheeler segments.
The rapid market growth in India is being propelled by advancements in EV technology, such as reduced battery costs and increased range, as well as by the expansion of charging infrastructure. The government plans to extend charging facilities to more cities and public areas by 2025 to meet growing demand.
Demand for Electronic Components in Electric Vehicles
- Power electronics systems: including inverters, DC-DC converters, and motor controllers, are the heart of electric vehicles.
- Battery Management Systems (BMS): Given India’s significant temperature variations, BMS must adapt to extreme climates to ensure battery safety and efficiency.
- On-board infotainment and autonomous driving components: As India’s middle class demands more high-tech vehicles, advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and on-board infotainment systems have become standard in new models.
Technical Challenges for Electronic Components
- High voltage and temperature resistance: India’s hot climate demands that electronic components can operate under more extreme conditions.
- Reliability and longevity: In India’s variable roads and climatic conditions, the durability and reliability of components are incredibly crucial.
- Miniaturization and integration: As technology advances, particularly in space-constrained two-wheelers and three-wheelers, the demand for miniaturization and integration grows.
