Global Electric Vehicle Connector Market Overview

Global electric vehicle connector market is forecast to reach $ 100 million by 2024, growing at an impressive CAGR of over 19% during the forecast period, on account of increasing sales of electric vehicles due to rising environmental pollution concerns. Several governments across the globe are encouraging the adoption of electric vehicles with favorable policies and regulations, which in turn would boost electric vehicle infrastructure and electric vehicle connector market. A connector, which acts as an electric vehicle (EV) coupler, is responsible for establishing the connection between the charging point of the station to the battery of the EV. The main purpose of the connector is to transfer the power. Connectors are designed based on specifications to synchronize with the features of the battery.

Global Electric Vehicle Connector Market Segments

IEC 62196 is a series of international standards that defines tests for socket-outlets, vehicle connectors and vehicle inlets for conductive charging of electric vehicles. The specific designs according to the series of standards are grouped into three classes i.e. Type 1, Type 2 and Type 3. Type 1 is a widely used connector in the US and Japan and is SAE J1772 connector. Type 2 connector used with the common name, Mennekes connector, is the preferred choice for the connector and is expected to witness significant growth during the forecast period. Type 3 connector is also known as Scame connector after the name of its manufacturer. Type 2 is the second most widely used connector after Type 1. In terms of the charging level, the market for electric vehicle connector has been segmented into Level 1, Level 2, Level 3 and Level 4. Charging level depends upon the power output of the charging station and the corresponding time required to charge the battery of the electric battery. Level 3 is the preferred charging level segment, on account of its ability to charge the fully drained battery to 80% in less than 10 minutes. Level 3 connectors are used for fast charging and supporting voltage rang between 200 and 600 volts.

Based on the charging speed, global electric vehicle connector market has been categorized into slow, fast and rapid charging. Demand for fast charging is increasing and the segment is expected to account for the majority market share, as it offers charging through a 240 V AC plug and requires the installation of public charging equipment.
