- The DC segment is predicted to lead the market during the assessment period.
- North America is the biggest market for electronic load
The global electronic load market size is to hit $4.91 billion with a 6.83 per cent CAGR from 2020 to 2026 (forecast period) as per a report by Market Research Future (MRFR). Electronic Loads are load devices that are used to set the desired resistance value. AC and DC electronic loads are used to test a wide range of power sources like inverters, converters, UPS, and electrotechnical sources like a battery, solar, wind, and fuel cells. Manufacturers of solar, power supply and battery need to test their supplies dynamically due to the recurrent rising and decreasing load capacity.
Key factors causing the growth of the global electronic load market are a growing focus on consumer electronics and appliance testing and boosting the reliability of wireless communication. Growing investment in aerospace, defense, and government services to build technologically advanced spacecraft as well as aircraft and defense systems is further driving the growth of the industry.
The report added, “Favorable policies and the rising development of infrastructure for electric vehicles across the globe, coupled with the investment in research and development (R&D) to develop equipment, further boost the growth of the industry. Nevertheless, the high capital cost of electronic load devices is a constraining factor for the growth of the global electronic load market.”
DC segment is predicted to lead the market during the assessment period
The market is expected to experience a slight slowdown as a consequence of the global outbreak of a new coronavirus pandemic. Manufacturing work is at a standstill due to labor shortages and work from home initiatives. This has resulted in a massive decline in demand from the end-use industries.
By voltage, the global electronic load market has been segmented into low and high. The low segment is anticipated to hold a larger share of the market and grow at the fastest rate during the forecast period.
By the current type, the global electronic load market has been segmented into AC and DC. The DC segment is predicted to lead the market during the assessment period. This is because DC type electronic loads are used for testing power devices, including batteries, automotive charging stations, inverter testing, and other power electronic components with high demand.

Wireless communication and infrastructure segment is projected to hold the largest share within the global electronic load market
By application, the global electronic load market has been segregated into aerospace, defense and government services, automotive, energy, wireless communication and infrastructure, and others. The wireless communication and infrastructure segment is projected to hold the largest share within the global electronic load market.
Based on region, the electronic load market has been segmented into Asia-Pacific, North America, Europe, the Middle East & Africa, and South America. North America is the biggest market for electronic load. The region has been divided by country into the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
It said, “The demand for electronic load in this region is mainly driven by applications like aerospace defense and government services, wireless communication, and automotive. Aerospace, defense, and government services are the largest sector in North America during the forecast period as they manufacture technologically advanced aircraft and defense systems. “
This is further helped by increased defense expenditures and budget allocations by national governments. It is also home to some of the major manufacturers who continue to focus on R&D in order to innovate on new technologies.
