Power electronics: market size in energy transition?
We describe c15 problems incurred by industrial and commercial power consumers. Many will require additional investment as renewables replace the large rotating generators of traditional power grids. Hence we see the market for commercial and industrial power electronics trebling from $360bn pa in 2021 to $1trn pa by 2035.

Eaton: breakdown of revenues by product category?
Eaton is a power-electronics super-giant, listed in the US, employing 86,000 people, generating $20bn per year of revenues. We have aimed to guess how $20bn pa of net sales is distributed across 200 different product categories. 75% is exposed to power-electronics, with tailwinds in the energy transition.

Power grids: opportunities in the energy transition?
Power grids move electricity from the point of generation to the point of use, while aiming to maximize the power quality, minimize costs and minimize losses. Broadly defined, global power grids and power electronics investment must step up 5x in the energy transition, from a $750bn pa market to over $3.5trn pa. But this theme…

Solar inverters: companies, products and costs?
This data-file tracks some of the leading solar inverter companies and inverter costs, efficiency and power electronic properties. As China now supplies 85% of all global inverters, at 30-50% lower $/W pricing than Western companies, a key question explored in the data-file is around price versus quality.

REEcycle: rare earth recycling from magnets?
Rare Earth recycling may recover Rare Earths at 50% lower costs and with over 90% less energy and CO2 than primary production, as long as the recycling process is simple, and only requires a small quantity of readily available commodity chemicals. This is exemplified by patents from REEcycle, which can recover over 90% of the…

MOSFETs: energy use and power loss calculator?
MOSFETs are fast-acting digital switches, used to transform electricity, across new energies and digital devices. MOSFET power losses are built up from first principles in this data-file, averaging 2% per MOSFET, with a range of 1-10% depending on voltage, switching, on resistance, operating temperature and reverse recovery charge.
