Los avances en las obleas de silicio EPI brindan soluciones de interconexión eléctrica confiables y altamente eficientes para la electrónica. El mercado de obleas de silicio EPI tiene un potencial extraordinario en los sectores de electrónica de consumo y telecomunicaciones. El creciente uso de la innovación avanzada de obleas en la electrónica compacta impulsa el crecimiento del mercado de obleas de silicio EPI.
Francia, Alemania, Rusia y el Reino Unido son los principales contribuyentes al crecimiento del mercado de obleas de silicio EPI en Europa. En Europa, la Comisión Europea (UE) propuso una amplia gama de políticas para garantizar la seguridad del suministro, la resiliencia y el liderazgo tecnológico en tecnología y aplicaciones de semiconductores en estos países. La Ley Europea de Chips aumentará la competitividad y la resiliencia de Europa y, al mismo tiempo, contribuirá a la revolución digital y verde. La reciente escasez mundial de semiconductores provocó el cierre de fábricas en diversas industrias, desde automóviles hasta dispositivos médicos. Por ejemplo, la producción de automóviles en algunos países de la UE cayó un tercio en 2021. Esto puso de relieve la excesiva dependencia global de la cadena de valor de los semiconductores de un pequeño número de actores industriales en situaciones geopolíticas complejas.
Por otro lado, Las adversidades provocadas por la crisis mundial también demostraron la importancia de los semiconductores para la economía europea. En julio de 2021, la Comisión Europea sugirió un cambio de directiva como parte de un paquete para implementar el Pacto Verde Europeo. Su objetivo es añadir nuevas medidas para complementar los componentes existentes creados por las directivas de 2009 y 2018 para garantizar que todo el potencial de producción de energía renovable se utilice de manera eficiente para poder cumplir el objetivo de neutralidad climática de la UE para 2050. Como resultado, los gobiernos de varios países están lanzando nuevos megaproyectos de energía solar, contribuyendo al progreso del mercado de obleas de silicio EPI.
Perspectivas estratégicas: Mercado de obleas de silicio EPI
Impacto de la pandemia de COVID-19 en el mercado de obleas de silicio EPI
India, China y Japón tienen muchas instalaciones electrónicas y usuarios finales del mercado de obleas de silicio EPI. A pesar del aumento de los casos de COVID-19, estos países suavizaron las normas de contención. Como resultado, los fabricantes de productos electrónicos y semiconductores estaban en pleno funcionamiento en 2020. Con el aumento de los casos de COVID-19 en China, las fábricas seguían operativas. Sin embargo, los actores del mercado de semiconductores, como Infineon Technologies, NXP Semiconductors y STMicroelectronics, tuvieron que cesar las operaciones en sus instalaciones de fabricación en Malasia durante 14 días debido al creciente número de casos de COVID-19 en todo el país en el tercer trimestre de 2021. China es También es líder mundial en muchas marcas globales. La región es conocida por su sólida industrialización y muchas empresas de diversas industrias tuvieron importantes requisitos de almacenamiento de datos para ejecutar sus operaciones de forma virtual. Según informes de la AIE, la energía solar fotovoltaica representó la mayor parte del crecimiento de la región en energía renovable en 2019. Las adiciones de energía fotovoltaica en China disminuyeron a 30 GW por segundo año consecutivo debido a cambios regulatorios, una disminución mayor de lo previsto. Menos del 30% de las adiciones fotovoltaicas del mundo provinieron de China en 2019, frente a un mínimo histórico del 55% en 2017. Por lo tanto, los fabricantes de diversos productos electrónicos y semiconductores, que utilizan obleas de silicio EPI como componente central, tuvieron que experimentar retrasos en el tiempo de entrega, lo que afectó negativamente al mercado de obleas de silicio EPI en 2020 y 2021.
