What’s Driving Power in 2026
Driving Innovation
TechInsights’ Power Semiconductor Roadmap tracks how integration, packaging, and new materials are transforming device architectures and power system design.
Managing Cost & Risk
Stable pricing, longer lead times, and strong AI-driven demand define the 2026 outlook for power products and sensors.
Targeting High-Growth Markets
TechInsights forecasts the global power semiconductor market to reach $71.4B by 2031, driven by AI datacenters, EV electrification, and renewable energy expansion.
The Five Expectations for Power in 2026
1. Datacenter Power Skyrocketing
AI datacenter workloads doubling every six months, pushing power conversion to new limits. Efficiency and density demands are driving the adoption of Silicon Carbide (SiC) and Gallium Nitride (GaN) devices.
2. Risk of SiC Commoditization and Consolidation
After rapid capacity expansion, SiC faces price pressure and oversupply, especially in China’s xEV market. Established players are shifting to high-performance markets like datacenters.
3. A New Set of Rules in the GaN Business
With SiC under strain, GaN is accelerating in datacenter, PV, and EV power systems. Larger wafers, higher voltages, and tighter integration are reshaping competition.
4. China’s Power Semiconductor Push
China is driving toward wide-bandgap self-sufficiency, expanding across substrates, epitaxy, and packaging. Silan Microelectronics stands out as a rising leader for 2026 and beyond.
5. Smart Power Management
Next-generation Power Management ICs (PMICs) are integrating sensing, control, and GaN power stages to optimize performance across AI, EV, and industrial systems.
Unlock the complete analysis, forecasts, and technology roadmaps across SiC, GaN, and PMIC markets.
