A surging need for clean & sustainable energy owing to the growing concerns pertaining to harmful GHG emissions will positively influence the product demand. In addition, several government initiatives for the deployment of renewable power generation to reduce the carbon footprint globally is further projected to sway the business scenario.
 

Increasing investments from both public & private sectors, stringent mandates, and energy conservation measures to curtail carbon emissions will stimulate the PV inverter market landscape. For instance, the Ministry of Power, exempted all the inter-state transmission losses and charges for the electricity generated from solar to encourage the adoption of renewable sources of energy. Moreover, the rising demand from the large-scale solar power plants along with the gradual shift from local grids will further demonstrate the diverse and sustained growth of solar energy.
 

The solar industry in the recent years has gained utmost regulatory and economic proliferation, but the availability of competitive auxiliary generation technologies has consistently been a bottleneck. Although solar technologies have witnessed a significant decline with respect to component prices, tax incursions, and the overall plant ownership costs, technologies including wind and hydro have still been providing lower Levelized Cost of Electricity (LCOE).
 

In addition, the advancing technological performance across biomass and CSP technologies has also set investments on hold due to their effective plant availability and load handling characteristics. However, as regulators have consistently been framing reforms and initiatives to support the solar PV deployments coupled with positive consumer tendencies, it will reinforce the PV inverter market dynamics by 2032.
 

COVID-19 Impact

In the past two years, the global economy has been significantly impacted due to the widespread outbreak of coronavirus. The COVID-19 also had an impact on the supply chain, which increased the cost of raw materials & components. However, the solar PV inverter industry witnessed a positive impact in its installation trend in 2020 on account of favorable government schemes including Feed-in Tariffs (FiTs) combined with surging rooftop installations. Furthermore, the developed economies are focusing on over-compensating the recent impacts of COVID-19 by fast tracking the construction activities of their existing solar PV projects.
 

PV Inverter Industry Trends

Increasing public and private funding for the electrification across off-grid or grid-isolated areas in developing regions will positively influence the PV inverter market share. In 2021, International Energy Agency (IEA) proclaimed an overall investment of USD 775 billion for electrification worldwide. Furthermore, rural establishments in the developing economies due to the lack of effective grid infrastructure have continuously been suffering from power lags and blackouts. Encouraging regulatory interventions coupled with an increasing number of industry participants will further stimulate the business growth.
 

Ongoing funding activities have instituted a positive economic scenario toward the deployment of sustainable electrical systems globally, will further boost the product demand. Renewable capacity in ASEAN countries is projected to grow by around 52 GW during 2021-2026 attributed to the expiring FIT scheme and the release of draft national long-term energy plans. As of now several emerging economies in the region are urging the espousal of off grid solar systems to cater daily energy requirements.

The string inverter segment exceeded majority of market value of over USD 15 billion in 2022. Ability to provide appreciable operational flexibility in a tandem of applications including power back-up and auxiliary line support will enable the installers to increasingly deploy these units. Rapid industrial expansion favored by commercialization in the developing economies will offer significant growth potential. Moreover, growing micro inverters in the U.S. led by its various features, which include maximum potential and limited maintenance, will drive the PV inverter market statistics.
 

PV Inverter Phase Segmentation

The three phase PV inverter industry dominated market share of around 77% in 2022 and is expected to grow at a lucrative pace by 2032 backed by the flexible product specifications and the ability to integrate single-phase inverter units project a significant growth potential. Manufacturers and installers have consistently been focusing on the development of enhanced three-phase PV inverter units, which has resulted in the utmost penetration of these circuits across the global electrical infrastructure. In addition, declining component costs coupled with stringent reforms mandating the integration of effective inverters will foster the product demand.
 

PV Inverter Connectivity Segmentation

In the recent years, ongoing utility-aided expansion of solar energy networks has consequently gained a significant proliferation attributed to the appreciable industry potential of on grid solar deployments. However, favorable reforms including FITs, soft loans, incentives, subsidies, and tax rebates and the increasing demand for uninterrupted and reliable power supply will drive the growth of standalone systems. Moreover, large-scale contracts with manufacturers to avail the potent technologies across regions with sustainable potential will favor the PV inverter market outlook of on grid systems.
 

PV Inverter Nominal Output Power Segmentation

Utility-based and industrial deployment of solar inverters is set to grow owing to mandates toward energy mix and independency regarding conventional fuel. As solar installations are inherent to frequency fluctuations and voltage dispositions, these fallouts compel industries and utilities to abide by the installation of effective inverter technologies. Henceforth, an increasing demand for utility-aided grid-tied electrification networks favored by incentives including net metering and FITs will boost the demand for high output power systems.
 

PV Inverter Nominal Output Voltage Segmentation

The increasing deployment of distributed generation technologies preferred by the increasing low-voltage solar consumer base because of the increasing rooftop deployments and small-scale residential installations will boost the demand for lower output voltage inverters. Growing energy consumption across small-scale commercial establishments favored by government incentives and subsidy schemes will augment the PV inverter market growth.

Residential solar PV inverter market gained a significant momentum in recent years owing to rapid technological expansion together with promising government schemes. For instance, Brazilian government introduced Convenio ICMS 16/15), which exempts solar power service providers and manufacturers from paying the Brazilian state sales tax. There has been a significant decline in the cost to install solar, which has shifted residential consumers toward the adoption of PV systems.
 

Various programs including SolSmart and Solar Automated Permit Processing (SolarAPP) have been initiated by the U.S. government to reduce local barriers for the solar deployment. Reforms including feed-in tariff, subsidies, incentives for grid-tied solar installations favored by stringent mandates toward manufacturing and integration of effective inverter technologies will further streamline the product adoption.
 

PV Inverter Regional Analysis

Asia Pacific PV inverter industry is estimated to amass USD 33 billion by 2032. In the recent years, the region has observed a steep progression across the solar industry landscape in relation to  regulatory reforms and rising renewable investments in the region. Renewable integration targets, feed-in tariff, self-consumption schemes, investment subsidies, and favorable regulatory reforms have significantly nourished the industry expansion.
