DUBLIN—Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Power Electronics for Electric Vehicles 2016-2026" report to their offering.

This report of over 190 very detailed slide format pages is replete with new forecasts, analysis and infographics seeing the road-map and financial projections to a future where land, water and airborne vehicles will be electric. The emphasis is land vehicles. It fully explains why power electronics is becoming more important in the performance and cost of an electric vehicle, hybrid or pure electric.

Reasons given include expected tough 2025 and 2030 regulations making most conventional power-trains illegal and the ongoing quest for performance improvement including better life and reliability. The report explains how power electronics may be part of the powertrain traction system, loosely related to it or not related and what that means, given in many new graphical summaries.

The key parts of recent presentations by the key players are assessed in this work, which was researched in 2016 by PhD level analysts traveling worldwide. Interviews, databases, web searches and conference attendance were extensively used. Old information is useless in this now fast moving field.

It covers such things as why universal and merged motor controllers are both elusive but more per vehicle will appear. Network integration, powertrain options, voltage trends and structural electronics potential are detailed. Design of Power Electronics comes next, embracing where, why and what new forms are appearing. Issues concerning power modules and battery management system design are here, for example.

Key Topics Covered:

1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS

2. INTRODUCTION

3. DESIGN OF POWER ELECTRONICS

4. NEW ACTIVE MATERIALS AND COMPONENTS: SIC GAN GAAS ETC

5. POWER ELECTRONICS FOR 48V MILD HYBRIDS AND BEYOND

6. SUPPLIER COMPARISONS
