Semiconductors for Alternative Energy Technologies: 2015 Opportunities and Markets Analysis
DUBLIN, Sep. 02, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/zkg54z/semiconductors) has announced the addition of the "Semiconductors for Alternative Energy Technologies: Opportunities and Markets" report to their offering.
The high price of oil in the past few years has been a catalyst for development in other alternative energy sources. Semiconductor technology surrounding the alternative energy markets includes advanced IGBT design, optoelectronics, advanced power conversion ICs, digital signal processing, MCUs, and advanced mixed signal and analog circuits. This report discussed the potential for these products to be the next killer green application.
Renewable, alternative energy technologies continue to grab the attention of private industries and world governments. Semiconductors are used in these technologies to convert the energy or power to something functional, such as converting solar energy into electricity.
Semiconductors used in products such as inverters, include MOSFETs, IGBTs, SiC, microcontrollers, DSPs, and discretes. The overall global market for PV inverters more than doubled in 2010, driven by main European markets. While the top 10 inverter suppliers were European, IC manufacturers of these devices have a more global presence.
Alternative energy technologies analyzed in the report are:
- Solar
- Wind
- Fuel Cells
- Storage
- Geothermal
- Nuclear
Key Topics Covered:
Chapter 1 Introduction
Chapter 2 Solar Energy
Chapter 3 Wind Energy
Chapter 4 Fuel Cells
Chapter 5 Storage/Electric Vehicle Technology
Chapter 6 Geothermal Energy
Chapter 7 Nuclear Power
Chapter 8 Energy Harvesting
Chapter 9 Hydroelectricity
