Premium Insights

According to the Vehicle Technologies report, advanced materials are essential for boosting the fuel economy of modern automobiles while maintaining safety and performance. Because it takes less energy to accelerate a lighter object than a heavier one, lightweight materials offer great potential for increasing vehicle efficiency. A 10% reduction in vehicle weight can result in a 6%-8% fuel economy improvement. According to their report, using lightweight components and high-efficiency engines, the U.S. fleet could save more than 5 billion gallons of fuel annually by 2030. Additionally, NASAs Glenn Research Center said that the silicon carbide (SiC) fibers and SiC/SiC ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) could be used in high-temperature structural applications, such as hot components in gas turbine engines because of their significant benefits, including metallic superalloys, monolithic ceramics, carbon fiber composites, and oxide/oxide ceramic composites. Thus, the increasing focus on lightweight materials in the aerospace and automotive industries also drives the demand for Sic Fibers. These fibers are lightweight but strong, which helps reduce the overall weight of vehicles and aircraft, leading to improved fuel efficiency and reduced emissions.

According to the Energy Report, power generation based on renewable energy sources is expected to account for 50% of the European Union, approximately 30% in China & Japan, and over 25% in the United States & India by 2040. In addition, solar energy technology can provide approximately 7% of the projected total electricity needs of the world by 2030 and 25% by 2050, published by MDPI Journal. They also stated that numerous CSP plants have been constructed, 68 of which are currently operating and producing 4569.55 MWe. Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) projects currently in development or under construction in over 12 countries (including China, India, Morocco, Spain, the United States, and South Africa) are expected to produce a total of 15 GW in 2030. These developments signify the positive momentum in renewable energy adoption and the potential of solar power to contribute to the global energy landscape significantly. Thus, the growing emphasis on renewable energy sources and the increasing use of Sic Fibers in manufacturing solar panels also contribute to the market growth.
