The insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) is a semiconductor switching device with three terminals, widely applied in various electronic devices for efficient and rapid switching. Typically utilized in amplifiers, it handles the switching and processing of intricate wave patterns through pulse width modulation (PWM).
The main types of insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) are discrete and modular. Discrete IGBTs find application in power factor correction circuits, dc/ac converter circuits, as well as in UPS, power conditioners, air conditioners, and welding equipment. IGBTs come in three power rating categories: high power, medium power, and low power, playing essential roles in EV/HEV, renewables, UPS, rail, motor drives, and industrial and commercial applications.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
Tariffs are influencing the IGBT market by increasing costs for imported semiconductor wafers, modules, and control electronics required for high-efficiency switching applications. Automotive, EV/HEV, and industrial segments in Asia-Pacific, Europe, and North America are most affected due to reliance on imported components. However, tariffs are driving local assembly, regional sourcing, and development of cost-efficient IGBT solutions, enhancing supply chain resilience and supporting broader adoption of advanced power electronics.

The insulated gate bipolar transistor (igbt) market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $18.8 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to expansion of AI-driven semiconductor control, increasing use of high-voltage igbt modules, integration with ev and renewable energy systems, growth in precision motor drive applications, rising adoption of connected power electronics. Major trends in the forecast period include integration of AI-powered switching optimization, adoption of smart igbt monitoring systems, deployment of high-efficiency semiconductor solutions, implementation of real-time pwm control systems, expansion of connected power electronics platforms.
The rising production of electric vehicles (EVs) is expected to drive the growth of the insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) market. IGBTs are a type of semiconductor device used as electronic switches that convert DC power from a car battery and AC control signals into the high power required to operate the motor through an inverter. IGBT technology is highly efficient for EV motors due to its fast-switching capabilities, which reduce power consumption and increase driving range. As EV production continues to grow, the demand for IGBTs will rise accordingly. For example, in April 2024, the International Energy Agency (IEA), a France-based intergovernmental organization, reported that in 2023, new electric car registrations in China reached 8.1 million, reflecting a 35% increase compared to 2022. Therefore, the increase in electric vehicle production is driving the insulated gate bipolar transistor market.
