Infineon is the world's leading manufacturer of power semiconductors and a top supplier of automotive chips, controlling critical silicon that governs energy conversion in electric vehicles, industrial drives, and renewable energy systems. Spun out of Siemens in 1999, the company operates major fabrication facilities in Dresden, Villach, and Kulim, giving Europe independent manufacturing capacity in essential chip categories. Infineon's dominance in power and sensor semiconductors ensures that Europe retains sovereign control over the silicon enabling the energy transition and automotive electrification.
