And the country has recently introduced favorable policies. On July 22, the State Council formulated the “Several Measures on Promoting the Consumption of Green Smart Home Appliances” through the Ministry of Commerce. On July 28, the Ministry of Commerce of the People’s Republic of China and 13 departments issued the “Notice on Several Measures on Promoting the Consumption of Green Smart Home Appliances”, further The implementation of 9 incentive policies such as the replacement of old household appliances for new ones and green and smart household appliances to the countryside is expected to positively stimulate the market demand for household appliances after the impact of the epidemic.
The company’s smart home appliance electronic control products integrate power conversion, logic control and frequency conversion control technologies.
Secondly, in the field of industrial power supply, not only does the overall market scale show steady growth and is driven by localized replacement demand, but the products have natural downstream ductility and are also suitable for companies to expand into multiple fields.
Because industrial equipment has the characteristics of high working conditions, harsh working environment and large differences in working environment, the production and design requirements of main components of industrial power supply are relatively high. Therefore, the common practice of industrial equipment manufacturers is to outsource the design and production of power supplies. It is supplied by a professional power supply supplier, which can meet the diversification of models on the one hand, and reduce costs on the other hand. Therefore, for industrial power supply enterprises, from design to production mode, it can efficiently meet the product needs of various industries, and then can Faster horizontal expansion to different industries.
At present, the main downstream industries of industrial power supply, in addition to photovoltaic new energy and semiconductor materials, also include glass fiber, steel metallurgy, medical equipment, communication equipment, LED display, new energy vehicles and other fields. According to the forecast of MarketsandMarkets, The global industrial power supply market will reach US$7 billion in 2021, and this figure will increase to US$9.7 billion by 2026, with a compound growth rate of 6.9%.
Moreover, in recent years, factors such as industrial upgrading of my country’s industrial enterprises, growth in demand for emerging industries, and national policy support have played a positive role in promoting the development of my country’s industrial power supply market. Domestic representative enterprises such as Megmeet will benefit more. The current company Substantial progress has been made in photovoltaic, energy storage and other related components, and it is expected to continue to expand related markets.
In the field of industrial automation, there are also dual driving factors of demand growth and domestic substitution.

It is widely used in machinery manufacturing, electric power, construction , transportation, information technology, energy, aerospace and other fields, the level of its technical level has become a symbol to measure the level of national economic development and modernization of a country.
In recent years, the R&D capabilities and comprehensive strength of domestic industrial control manufacturers have been significantly enhanced, and they have gained many opportunities in import substitution. According to the relevant information of Gongkong.com, the scale of China’s industrial automation market will reach 253 billion in 2021, a year-on-year increase of 22%, and there is still a lot of room for growth.
In the second quarter of 2022, although there was a short-term impact on the demand of the industry due to the spread of the local epidemic and prevention and control, as the local epidemic situation in China has been controlled to a certain extent since May and various policies for stabilizing growth have been proposed and gradually implemented, the agency believes that the manufacturing industry The second quarter is expected to usher in an inflection point of prosperity, and the transmission to industrial automation and other links is expected to reverse in the third to fourth quarters.
At present, downstream such as new energy, lithium battery, power grid, and large-scale infrastructure projects are expected to become the main growth contributors. High-quality domestic enterprises with strong market share and influence, and a high degree of downstream revenue structure fit are more expected to be in the second half of the industry recovery process. Gain growth beyond the industry.
In the field of new energy vehicles and rail transit, market demand is exploding.
The latest data from the China Automobile Association shows that in the first half of 2022, the production and sales of new energy vehicles in my country were 2.661 million and 2.6 million respectively, an increase of 1.2 times year-on-year. The scale of production and sales reached a new high, and the market penetration rate reached 21.6%.
The rapidly growing demand for new energy vehicles has driven the development of the charging pile industry. According to the latest charging pile data released by the China Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Promotion Alliance, as of June 2022, members of the alliance reported a total of 1.528 million public charging piles, an increase of 109,000 from the previous month and a year-on-year increase of 65.5%.
Among them, there are 665,000 DC charging piles, 863,000 AC charging piles, and 472 AC-DC integrated charging piles. From July 2021 to June 2022, about 50,000 new public charging piles will be added per month. According to the analysis of Guoyuan Securities, the total investment in the charging pile market in the next ten years will be nearly one trillion yuan, and the cumulative market space is expected to exceed 100 billion yuan from 2020 to 2025.
