Power Optimizer Market, By Converter

Buck converter-based power optimizer market is predicted to value over USD 900 Million by 2025. These are DC-to-DC power converters which step down voltage from input to their output. It is a type of switched-mode power supply typically containing two semiconductors (diode & transistor, although modern day converters generally replace diode with a second transistor, for synchronous rectification) and one energy storage element, an inductor, capacitor or the combination of two.
 

Boost converters are DC-to-DC power converter that step-up voltage from their input to its load. These are also a type of switched-mode power supply containing two semiconductors (diode & transistor) & one energy storage element: an inductor, capacitor or the two in combination. Reduced voltage ripples, effective energy storage, probable energy efficiency for associated products will augment the overall boost converter-based power optimizer market size.
 

Power Optimizer Market, By Region

Stringent norms pertaining to the capping of feed-in tariffs and incentives in the recent years have obstructed solar deployments across European countries.
