Dublin, Jan. 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "GaN and SiC Power Semiconductor Market Report 2026" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The GaN and SiC power semiconductor market is experiencing rapid growth, projected to expand from $1.85 billion in 2025 to $2.31 billion by 2026, achieving a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 24.3%. This substantial increase is driven by the early adoption of power electronics, the expansion of industrial motor drives, renewable energy inverter application, and initial use in hybrid vehicles. Looking further, the market is expected to reach $5.45 billion by 2030, with a CAGR of 24%, stimulated by rising demand for electric vehicles, deployment of fast-charging infrastructure, and advancement in high-efficiency photovoltaic inverters and industrial automation power modules.

Key industry trends include the uptake of high-efficiency wide bandgap power devices, intelligent power conversion platform expansions, IoT-enabled semiconductor monitoring developments, AI-assisted power management advancements, and cloud-connected power electronics integration. Electric vehicle adoption stands as a significant market growth driver, utilizing GaN and SiC power semiconductors for high-efficiency power transistors and integrated circuits, particularly thanks to SiC's advantage in offering better breakdown electric field strength and a wider band gap than silicon.

In 2024, the International Energy Agency reported a 16% rise in energy efficiency investments to USD 600 billion, spurred by governmental programs. Electric vehicle sales represented 14% of global car sales, with predictions to reach 18% by 2023. This upward trend boosts demand for GaN and SiC power semiconductors.

Leading companies such as Navitas Semiconductor Corporation continue to drive innovation, as seen with their 2025 launch of the 650 V Bi-Directional GaNFast Power ICs, designed for next-generation EV on-board chargers, and other high-demand sectors. These advancements focus on enhancing power conversion efficiency and system design compactness.

In October 2023, Infineon Technologies AG, a prominent player in the semiconductor industry, acquired GaN Systems Inc. for $830 million, enhancing its GaN roadmap and securing a competitive edge by accessing new GaN-based technologies and expertise. This acquisition supports Infineon's prominence in the power semiconductor sector, accelerating innovation and solution delivery.

The market faces challenges such as global trade relations and tariffs, affecting production costs and supply cycles. However, this has spurred investment in domestic semiconductor fabrication, fostering localized supply chains and innovation in cost-effective wide bandgap devices. The semiconductor market report provides comprehensive data and insights crucial for stakeholders navigating this dynamic landscape, detailing market statistics, regional analysis, industry trends, and future opportunities.
