Expert Market Research Explores the Top 8 Companies in the Global Solar PV Inverter Market

The global solar PV inverter market size reached a value of almost USD 7.3 billion in the year 2020. The solar PV inverter market is further expected to grow at a CAGR of 5% between 2022 and 2027. As per the analysis by Expert Market Research, the market is expected to be driven by the rising environmental concerns about greenhouse emissions.

Solar inverter is one of the most important components of a solar power system. Its primary function is to convert solar panels' direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC). Apart from this, solar inverters help maximize electricity production by constantly varying the resistance (load) while also ensuring compliance with regulations about feeding electricity into the grid.

North America, the Middle East and Africa, Latin America, Europe, and the Asia Pacific are the major regions in the industry. Asia Pacific is expected to hold a majority of the share of the market over the forecast period, owing to the increase in investments in the construction section. With the increasing pollution concerns across the globe due to industrialisation, particularly in Asia Pacific, regional solar power generation has augmented significant momentum.

The increasing cost of fossil fuels is making solar power a more economical energy source. Solar inverter prices have also dropped in recent years, making them more accessible to the general public. This has resulted in solid growth in installing solar electric systems across both developed and developing regions across the globe. The market has also witnessed substantial growth due to the increasing demand for renewable energy due to large power consumption and decreased renewable power generation costs. Some other factors driving this market include the need for rural electrification, technological advancements, rise in the number of residential solar rooftop installations increasing government support, and rising investments in renewable energy.
