Back in the year 2022, the overall value of the EV power module market was around US$ 1,570.6 million. For this year 2023, FMI predicts the value to be around US$ 1,955.4 million. According to FMI’s study of the global EV power module demand, the industries are anticipated to expand at a healthy CAGR of 24% on average. Consequently, by the end of the forecast period, the EV module market share’s entire worth might reach up to US$ 16,805.4 million.
As a result, the widespread adoption of EVs is anticipated to boost industries supplying components for electric vehicles on a worldwide scale. Moreover, rising public spending on the construction of a global charging network is also anticipated to encourage the selling of EV power modules.
