Fixed Inductor Market size was valued at USD 4.18 Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to cross USD 7.31 Billion by the end of 2036, expanding at more than 4.4% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2024-2036. In the year 2024, the industry size of fixed inductor is estimated at USD 4.35 Billion. The growth of the market can primarily be attributed to the growing demand for transformers which is an important part of power generation worldwide. For instance, according to the data published in the ITC Trade Map, the global value of the import of parts of electrical transformers and inductors was USD 10,383,284 thousand in 2020, which further increased to USD 12,791,611 thousand in 2021.
The coils in a fixed inductor are wound such that the turns remain fixed in position with respect to each other. A fixed conductor either has a core whose air gap and position within the coil is fixed or has no magnetic core. They tend to be more compact and convenient inductors, and they are a smart choice for applications in which steady inductance is expected. The wide use of fixed conductors in combination with capacitors to make tuned circuits, which are used to tune radio and TV receivers, is expected to create massive revenue generation opportunities for the key players operating in the global fixed inductor market during the forecast period. It was found that, in the year 2021, the worth of the United States television industry was estimated to be more than 200 billion. The amount spent on TV subscription services was estimated to be USD 119 billion in 2021, which grew by approximately 5 billion in 2020.
Growth Drivers
Upsurge in the Telecom Industry – The surge in the RF & telecommunication sector and demand for integrated chips is expected to boost the demand for fixed inductors. In the year 2021, the tele-density in India was more than 85% and the gross revenue of the telecom sector was approximately USD 8.75 billion in the first quarter of 2022.
Positive Trend in Export of Electrical Parts - The rising use of inductors in connection with capacitors to create a tuned circuit that serves as a resonator for oscillating current has driven the market for fixed inductors. As per the ITC Trade Map statistics, the value of the export of “parts of electrical” “pre-set” capacitors, fixed, variable or adjustable, grew from USD 1,344,008 thousand in 2020, to USD 1,500,875 thousand in 2021, globally.
Increasing Number of Smart Cities – Growing number of smart cities and smart homes is attributed to increase the demand for energy efficient electronic appliances and devices which is forecasted to propel the demand for fixed inductors. In the year 2019, ~102 cities were ranked under the Smart City Index.
Growing Export of Aerospace and Defense (A&D) Industries – The rise in the demand for electromagnetic technology viz, transformers and inductors in the A&D industry is escalating the need for fixed inductors. The A&D industry maintained its positive trade balance in United States, worth ~USD 40 billion in 2020.
Rise in Preference for Wireless Devices - In comparison to about 57% of individuals who use earphones at home, about 65% of people use wireless headphones. People prefer cordless earbuds around 54% of the time compared to about 44% while using headphones outside.
