시장 성장을 가로막는 주요 장벽 중 하나는 전자폐기물을 줄이기 위해 신규 기기 출하에서 전원 어댑터를 분리해야 한다는 규제 압력이 증가하고 있다는 점입니다. 주요 제조업체들이 환경 규제 및 범용 충전 표준을 준수하기 위해 제품 패키지에서 충전기를 제거함에 따라, 기기 판매와 어댑터 생산량의 전통적인 관계는 약화되고 있습니다. 이러한 변화로 인해 공급업체는 복잡한 컴플라이언스 환경에서 사업을 운영해야 하며, 번들 배송 기회의 감소를 보완하기 위해 애프터마켓 판매에 대한 필요성이 점점 더 커지고 있습니다.
시장 촉진요인
통신 기술과 5G 인프라의 발전은 고밀도 네트워크 레이아웃과 높은 데이터 처리량을 지원하는 고성능 어댑터에 대한 수요를 창출하여 전력 분야에 큰 변화를 가져오고 있습니다. 통신사업자들이 초저지연 애플리케이션을 구현하기 위해 네트워크를 고도화함에 따라, 부하 변동과 가혹한 환경을 견딜 수 있는 신뢰할 수 있는 AC-DC 전력 변환 장치의 필요성이 급증하고 있습니다. 이러한 인프라 확장은 어댑터 조달을 촉진하고 있으며, 새로운 기지국이나 스몰셀을 설치할 때마다 지속적인 운영을 위한 전용 전원 공급 장치 하드웨어가 필요하기 때문입니다. 이러한 빠른 하드웨어 확장을 뒷받침하듯, 2024년 6월 발표된 에릭슨 모빌리티 보고서에 따르면, 2024년 1분기에만 1억 6,000만 건의 5G 가입이 증가했다고 보고되었습니다.
산업 자동화 및 스마트 제조의 성장은 정밀한 직류가 필요한 첨단 센서, 로봇, 제어 시스템을 도입하는 시설이 증가함에 따라 시장 수요를 더욱 자극하고 있습니다. 현대의 생산 환경은 기계 제어에서 전기 제어로 전환되고 있으며, 효율적인 작동을 위해 개별 전원 또는 DIN 레일 전원 공급이 필요한 전자부품의 밀도가 증가하고 있습니다. 로크웰 오토메이션의 2024년 3월 '제9회 연례 스마트 제조 보고서'에 따르면, 제조업체의 95%가 스마트 기술을 도입했거나 시범 운영 중으로, 전기 의존형 인프라로의 큰 전환이 이루어지고 있다고 합니다. 이러한 연결된 생태계를 뒷받침하는 형태로 반도체 산업 협회는 2024년 8월 세계 반도체 매출이 531억 달러에 달할 것으로 보고, 전력 변환 솔루션을 필요로 하는 방대한 양의 하드웨어에 초점을 맞추고 있습니다.
시장의 과제
신규 디바이스 출하 시 전원 어댑터 분리를 의무화하는 규제 압력이 높아지면서 세계 AC/DC 전원 어댑터 시장에 심각한 구조적 장벽이 되고 있습니다. 전자폐기물을 제한하는 환경 규제가 강화됨에 따라 정부가 더 엄격한 환경 지침을 시행함에 따라 OEM 제조업체는 제품 패키지에서 충전 장치를 제외하는 경향이 증가하고 있습니다. 이러한 추세로 인해 기존 신규 스마트폰이나 태블릿 구매 시 어댑터가 반드시 함께 제공되던 판매 구조가 무너지면서, 동봉된 유닛의 유통량이 실질적으로 감소하고 있습니다. 그 결과, 제조업체는 기존 디바이스 출하량에 연동된 자동화된 수요가 예측하기 어려운 애프터마켓 모델로 대체되는 파괴적인 변화에 대응해야 합니다.
이러한 규제 상황은 주로 폐기 주변기기의 축적을 관리해야 하는 긴급한 필요성에 의해 추진되고 있습니다. WEEE 포럼은 2023년 "케이블과 전원 어댑터를 포함한 '보이지 않는 전자폐기물'이 전 세계적으로 약 90억 킬로그램에 달할 것"이라고 추산했습니다. 이 엄청난 규모의 폐기물은 단종 정책의 영속성을 확고히 하고, 어댑터 공급업체가 기기 제조업체의 안정적인 대량 주문에 의존하는 대신 세분화된 소매 환경에서 경쟁하도록 강요하고 있습니다. 결국, 이러한 분리는 주요 공급망 내 수익성을 제한합니다.
시장 동향
질화갈륨(GaN) 기술의 급속한 보급은 기존 실리콘 부품을 와이드 밴드갭 반도체로 대체함으로써 어댑터 시장을 변화시키고 있습니다. 이 기술 혁신을 통해 과열 없이 높은 와트수를 지원하면서도 훨씬 작고 가벼우면서도 고효율의 전원 어댑터를 제조할 수 있게 되어 소비자가 원하는 휴대성과 고속 충전에 대한 요구를 충족시킬 수 있게 되었습니다. 각 제조사들은 경쟁이 치열한 리테일 시장에서 중고출력 제품을 차별화하기 위해 GaN 기술을 적극적으로 채택하고 있습니다. Navitas Semiconductor의 2025년 2월 결산 보고서에 따르면, 2024년 기준 모바일 충전기 분야에서 GaN 기술의 세계 채택률은 실리콘 대비 10%에 달해 고성능 대체 기술로의 중요한 전환점을 맞이할 것으로 예상했습니다.
USB-C Power Delivery 프로토콜의 세계 표준화는 제품 설계 전략을 재구성하고 있습니다. 규제에 따라 다양한 장치 유형에서 전력 전송을 위한 단일 인터페이스로의 통합이 의무화되었기 때문입니다. 이 조화는 하나의 대용량 어댑터로 노트북, 스마트폰, 주변기기를 충전할 수 있어 사용자 경험을 향상시킬 수 있습니다. 이를 통해 독자 규격의 커넥터가 필요 없어지고, 전자기기의 번거로움도 줄일 수 있습니다. 이러한 전환은 환경 부하를 줄이기 위해 전원 공급 장치 판매를 전자기기 본체에서 분리하는 입법 조치에 의해 강력하게 추진되고 있습니다. 2024년 12월 유럽 의회의 공통 충전기 지침에 대한 성명서에 따르면, 이러한 상호운용성 규정으로 인해 불필요한 충전기 구매가 불필요해짐에 따라 소비자는 연간 최대 2억 5천만 유로를 절약할 수 있을 것으로 추산됩니다.

AC-DC Wall Power Adapter
Largest Market
North America
One major obstacle hindering market growth is the mounting regulatory pressure to separate power adapters from new device shipments in an effort to reduce electronic waste. As leading manufacturers eliminate chargers from product packaging to adhere to environmental regulations and universal charging standards, the traditional link between device sales and adapter production volumes is diminishing. This shift forces suppliers to operate within a complicated compliance environment where aftermarket sales are increasingly needed to offset the decline in bundled shipment opportunities.
Market Driver
Progress in telecommunications and 5G infrastructure is significantly altering the power sector by demanding high-performance adapters that support denser network layouts and higher data throughput. As providers densify networks to enable ultra-low latency applications, there is an intensified need for reliable AC-DC power conversion units capable of enduring load fluctuations and harsh environments. This infrastructure expansion drives adapter procurement, as every new base station and small cell installation necessitates dedicated power hardware for continuous operation. Reinforcing this rapid hardware scaling, the Ericsson Mobility Report from June 2024 noted that 5G subscriptions increased by 160 million in the first quarter of 2024 alone.
The growth of industrial automation and smart manufacturing further stimulates market demand as facilities adopt advanced sensors, robotics, and control systems requiring precise direct current. Modern production environments are shifting from mechanical to electric controls, thereby increasing the density of electronic components needing individual or DIN-rail power supplies for efficient operation. According to Rockwell Automation's March 2024 "9th Annual State of Smart Manufacturing Report," 95% of manufacturers are employing or testing smart technologies, indicating a major move toward electrically reliant infrastructures. Supporting this connected ecosystem, the Semiconductor Industry Association reported global semiconductor sales of $53.1 billion in August 2024, highlighting the vast hardware volume requiring power conversion solutions.
Market Challenge
Growing regulatory pressure to unbundle power adapters from new device shipments presents a significant structural barrier to the Global AC DC Power Supply Adapter Market. As governments enforce stricter environmental mandates to limit electronic waste, original equipment manufacturers are increasingly excluding charging units from product packaging. This trend breaks the traditional guaranteed sale of an adapter with every new smartphone or tablet, effectively lowering the volume of bundled units distributed. Consequently, manufacturers must navigate a disruptive shift where the automatic demand previously driven by device shipments is superseded by a more unpredictable aftermarket model.
This regulatory landscape is primarily motivated by the urgent necessity to manage the buildup of discarded peripherals. The WEEE Forum estimated in 2023 that "invisible e-waste," a category including cables and power adapters, totaled approximately 9 billion kilograms globally. The sheer scale of this waste solidifies the permanence of unbundling policies, compelling adapter suppliers to compete in a fragmented retail environment instead of relying on consistent bulk orders from device makers. Ultimately, this decoupling restricts revenue potential within the primary supply chain.
Market Trends
The rapid adoption of Gallium Nitride (GaN) technology is transforming the adapter market by substituting traditional silicon components with wide-bandgap semiconductors that provide better thermal management and switching speeds. This technological advancement allows for the manufacture of significantly smaller, lighter, and more efficient power bricks capable of handling higher wattages without overheating, thereby meeting consumer desires for portability and fast charging. Manufacturers are actively using GaN to distinguish their mid-to-high power offerings in a crowded retail space. According to Navitas Semiconductor's February 2025 financial results, GaN technology achieved a 10% global adoption rate compared to silicon in the mobile charger sector during 2024, marking a crucial shift toward these high-performance alternatives.
The universal standardization of USB-C Power Delivery protocols is reshaping product design strategies as regulations mandate a convergence toward a single interface for power transmission across various device types. This harmonization improves the user experience by enabling a single high-capacity adapter to charge laptops, smartphones, and peripherals, rendering proprietary connectors obsolete and decreasing electronic clutter. This transition is strongly supported by legislative measures intended to separate power supply sales from electronic devices to lower environmental impact. In a December 2024 press statement regarding the Common Charger Directive, the European Parliament estimated that these interoperability rules would save consumers up to 250 million euros annually by removing the need for superfluous charger purchases.
