Global Electric Vehicle High Voltage Relay Market Research Report 2025(Status and Outlook)

Report Overview

The high-voltage relay for new energy vehicles is a core electrical component dedicated to the control of high-voltage DC circuits in new energy vehicles. Its operating voltage is usually 200V and above, which is much higher than the 12-48V low-voltage relay of traditional internal combustion engine vehicles. With the increase in the voltage of the main circuit of new energy vehicles and the complexity of the power current, high-voltage relays need to have higher reliability, electrical performance and service life to meet the needs of safe switching and control in high current and high voltage environments. Especially with the popularization of 800V high-voltage platforms and high-power fast charging technology, high-voltage relays need to have excellent voltage resistance, current carrying capacity, arc extinguishing performance and low contact resistance to adapt to the technical challenges brought about by the substantial increase in charging power. The number of high-voltage relays for new energy vehicles has not only increased significantly compared to traditional vehicles, but also the requirements for quality and performance have also increased significantly. Its development has been accompanied by the rapid growth of the industry as a whole, providing a broad market space for relay companies.

High-voltage DC relays for new energy vehicles are key safety devices with the characteristics of high voltage resistance, load resistance, impact resistance, strong arc extinguishing ability and strong breaking ability. With the increase in platform voltage of new energy passenger cars and buses, high-voltage relays need to withstand high voltages of 370V to 576V and above and ensure reliable closing and disconnection under high-voltage load. At the same time, in the face of high current requirements brought by the rated power of the motor, the relay needs to have strong load-bearing capacity and instantaneous overload capacity, and find a balance between volume and performance. Shock resistance is also key. The high-voltage relay must be able to withstand the capacitive load impact current at the moment of closing to prevent contact adhesion and power outage. Arc extinguishing ability is crucial. Rapid arc extinguishing technology is used to reduce arc damage to contacts and extend service life. In emergency situations such as short circuits, high-voltage relays need to demonstrate strong disconnection capabilities to prevent contact adhesion or relay abnormalities and ensure safe and stable operation of the entire vehicle system.

The global new energy vehicle high-voltage relay market size is US$3.521 billion in 2024. It is expected to reach US$16.961 billion by 2030, with a compound annual growth rate of 29.96% during the forecast period (2024-2030). Countries around the world are actively promoting the electrification of automobiles and introducing policies to encourage new energy vehicles to replace traditional fuel vehicles. For example, China's ""double credit policy"", the EU's carbon neutrality goal, and the US's new energy vehicle tax incentives have significantly accelerated the penetration rate of electric vehicles. The rapid growth in sales of new energy vehicles has directly driven the demand for high-voltage DC relays, and this trend will become the main driving force for market growth.

The upstream of new energy vehicle high-voltage DC relays mainly includes the supply of core raw materials and key components, which directly determine the performance and manufacturing cost of relays. Key raw materials include precious metals for contacts (such as silver cadmium oxide, silver tin oxide), copper materials for coils, and high-temperature resistant insulating plastics and ceramic materials. These materials must have the characteristics of high voltage resistance, impact resistance and high reliability. At the same time, the magnetic blowing or vacuum technology of the arc extinguishing device further improves the safety and life of the product. Upstream suppliers such as Umicore and Hitachi Metals provide high-quality raw materials to the industry, and fluctuations in precious metal prices are a major challenge for cost control.

The midstream link is the core part of the high-voltage DC relay industry, covering product research and development, design and production. The technical threshold is concentrated on reliable performance under high voltage and high current conditions, high reliability requirements, and technical capabilities to achieve miniaturization and lightweight. The production process includes contact processing, electromagnetic coil winding, sealing and quality testing, and the use of automated production equipment continues to improve efficiency and consistency.

The downstream is mainly driven by the demand for high-voltage DC relays in the new energy vehicle industry, and its application scenarios include main circuit control, air conditioning systems and fast charging devices. Each new energy vehicle uses an average of 4-6 high-voltage DC relays, and the value of each vehicle is significantly higher than that of traditional fuel vehicles. In addition, with the popularization of high-voltage fast charging technology and energy storage systems, the demand for high-voltage DC relays in high-power charging piles and power storage is also growing rapidly. As the world's largest consumer market for new energy vehicles, China's demand for relays is particularly prominent, and the European and North American markets are also expanding rapidly under policy promotion.

The competitive landscape of the new energy vehicle relay industry shows a clear echelon distribution, and shows the characteristics of ""one super and many strong"". It can be divided into three echelons according to market share and competitiveness. As a rigid component of new energy vehicles, high-voltage DC relays have a large market demand and considerable industry profits. However, the intensified market competition has led to significant differences in corporate gross profit margins. Due to their advanced technology, wide customer coverage and high production efficiency, the gross profit margin of leading enterprises can be as high as about 35%, while the gross profit margin of second- and third-tier enterprises is lower, only between 20% and 30%. This difference reflects the profound impact of industry technical barriers and resource integration capabilities on corporate profitability, and also indicates the trend of further market integration and concentration in the future.

The first-tier enterprises include Panasonic, Hongfa, Denso and Tyco, which have significant advantages in technological innovation and market development. Among them, Panasonic ranks first in the industry with a global market share of about 35%, followed by Hongfa with a market share of 25%. In the Chinese market, Hongfa occupies about 40% of the market share and has become the absolute leader in the local market with its leading technical strength and high-quality supply chain resources.

The second-tier enterprises include Gigavac, Omron, BYD and Hella Electronics. Although their market share is slightly lower than that of the first-tier, these enterprises have gradually formed their own competitive advantages through differentiated products and a stable customer base. Among them, BYD has further consolidated its position in the relay market by relying on the supporting demand brought by the new energy vehicle business.

The third-tier companies mainly include Sanyou Lianzhong, Huigang Electric, Shanghai Xiai and Kunshan Guoli. These companies are relatively weaker than the first two tiers in market share and technical capabilities, but with strong cost control and flexible market strategies, they can still maintain a certain degree of competitiveness in specific segments.
