According to the National Development and Reform Commission, in order to promote energy conservation and consumption reduction and promote the development of power electronic technologies and industries, the National Development and Reform Commission and other relevant departments will arrange subsidies to support the industrialization of new types of power electronic devices.
With the development of smart grid, high-speed railway construction, new energy vehicles and energy-saving appliances in China, the demand for 5-inch and 6-inch thyristors, IGCT (integrated gate commutated thyristor), and IGBT (insulated gate bipolar transistor) is huge. .
This reporter learned that in 2009 China's IGBT market is about 5.3 billion yuan, and in the next few years, with the promotion of energy-saving emission reduction, the IGBT market will increase by 20%-30% annually.
However, because there are only a few packaging lines for low-power IGBTs in China, we do not have the ability to develop, manufacture, and package high power IGBTs. Therefore, the current high-end power electronic devices required by the domestic market mainly rely on imports. The IGBT supply is mainly controlled by Infineon, Mitsubishi, ABB, Fujitsu and other foreign giants, and is technically controlled by people for a long time. In response, the National Development and Reform Commission made it clear that in 2010 it will support the industrialization of new types of power electronic chips and devices such as MOSFETs, IGCTs, IGBTs, and ultra-fast recovery diodes (FRDs).
It is reported that the National Development and Reform Commission will organize the implementation of the new industrialization of power electronic devices, and encourage eligible enterprises to apply for state subsidies for financial support.
The state subsidy funds are mainly used for research and development of the project, acquisition of equipment and equipment for research and development and engineering, improvement of process equipment and test conditions, construction of industrialized or engineered verification sets of devices and test devices, and construction of necessary supporting infrastructure. Purchase necessary technology, software, etc.
