Semiconductor Market Analysis:

The global semiconductors market is being driven by accelerating demand for electronics. Based on data from the International Trade Administration, US Department of Commerce, the electronics and semiconductors market in India is projected to grow at 25% through 2028. The demand for semiconductors in the country is further projected to reach US$ 110 Billion by 2030. In line with the expanding demand, the Governments of India and the United States signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to establish an innovation partnership and semiconductor supply chain.

The increasing need for enhanced computing solutions in the automotive sector is also driving the demand for semiconductors globally. As per a recent study by IMARC, the global automotive electronics market is projected to grow at 6.1% from 2024 to 2032, reaching US$ 558.5 Billion. As a result, countries such as China are introducing their own standards for semiconductors used in autonomous and electric vehicles to boost domestic production. According to guidelines issued by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology in China, technological standards will be created for more than 30 important semiconductors by 2025 and more than 70 types by 2030.

Semiconductor Market Trends:

Advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI)

With the growing adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) in applications ranging from data centers to personal devices, the global demand for AI chips is projected to reach US$ 150.4 Billion by 2032, expanding at 25.8% during 2024-2032. Leading AI chip manufacturers such as Intel and Nvidia are witnessing significant expansion due to increasing applications of AI. For instance, Nvidia reported a substantial increase in its Q4 2023 revenue, reaching US$ 22.1 Billion, up 265% from the previous year. As per company officials, generative AI and accelerated computing are the major drivers of growth. Nvidia's new H200 chip, expected to ship in Q2 2024, is anticipated to nearly double the performance of its current leading AI chip, the H100. Similarly, Intel launched Intel introduced new computer chips, including the Gaudi3 AI chip, Core Ultra chips for Windows laptops and PCs, and fifth-generation Xeon server chips in December 2023. The Gaudi3 chip is designed for generative AI software and is set to compete with Nvidia's H100 and AMD's forthcoming MI300X.

Focus on Sustainability Within Manufacturing Processes

Semiconductor manufacturing is highly resource-intensive and results in various emissions. As a result, market leaders are investing in improving the sustainability of manufacturing processes. For instance, Intel is aiming for 100% renewable electricity, net-positive water use, and zero waste to landfills by 2030. The company utilized 99% renewable electricity in its factories worldwide in 2023. Similarly, organizations worldwide are investing in research and development (R&D) activities. Edwards, a vacuum systems firm based in England, has developed a hydrogen recovery system that can recycle up to 80 percent of the gas used in Extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography machines. Researchers at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and UC Berkeley have developed a "multielement ink" that can be processed at low temperatures, including room temperature, leading to more cost-effective and energy-efficient production methods for semiconductors.
