In addition to the application of directly loading on new energy vehicles, IGBT is also the core power device of DC charging pile. Similar to its function in OBC, IGBT acts as a DC-DC voltage converter in DC charging piles. DC charging pile converts alternating current into direct current through power module, conducts DC-DC voltage change through capacitive voltage regulator filter, and then inverts the direct current into high frequency alternating current through inverter power module. Finally, transformer coupling and rectifier unit convert the direct current into different DC voltage levels to charge electric vehicles. With the expansion of the scale of new energy vehicles, the charging pile market grows. In 2021, the global and Chinese market size of IGBT in the field of DC charging piles for vehicles is $336 million and $151 million, and it is expected that the market size will reach $1.00 billion and $603 million in 2025.
