Micro inverter Market Drivers

Wide range of technical advantages of micro-inverters over conventional solar inverters is driving its market growth

Micro-inverters have several technical advantages over other conventional string and central solar inverters. Unlike conventional inverters, which are placed at a distance from the solar array and can operate and monitor a number of solar panels at a time, micro-inverters are placed beneath every solar panel and convert direct current (DC) electricity produced by a single solar panel. This enables them to operate individually. Micro-inverter delivers a maximum potential output of the photovoltaic (PV) system. The main advantage of micro-inverters is their ability to maintain a robust and consistent flow of power despite the shading of one or more of its panels. These advantages have increased the popularity of micro-inverters among end-users which tends to drive its market growth across the globe.

Increasing demand of energy harvesting solutions is propelling the Micro inverter Market growth

Rapid developments in the solar energy sector in terms of power generation and utilization are contributing to the increase in the number of solar PV installations for various applications across the world. According to the International Renewable energy agency (IRENA), the global installed capacity of solar photovoltaic across the globe elevated from 482,912 MW in 2018 to 709,674 MW in 2020. Countries such as China, the US, Germany, and Japan are major markets to have witnessed an increased number of new solar installations in 2020. This increasing installation of solar photovoltaic across the globe tends to bring significant growth in the demand for micro inverters, further driving its market growth during the forecast period. Moreover, inverters have a higher penetration potential in new solar installations than the existing ones or the installations underway. Therefore, flourishing solar energy markets that include India, Brazil, and France create significant growth opportunities for solar inverter systems. Moreover, an increased number of global PV power plant installations also act as potential growth opportunities for micro-inverter market.

Micro inverter Market Challenges

Higher initial cost and higher cost of replacement is analyzed to hamper the Micro inverter Market growth

One of the most important factors restraining the market growth of Micro inverters is its higher initial cost. During the installation of micro inverters, there are many technical challenges in installing a solar array such as shading issues that could cause the entire system to underperform. Moreover, as an inverter is located below the solar panel, it might be very difficult to replace the micro inverter due to existing site conditions and might require more than 1 technician on-site to replace it. These factors tend to bring major challenges in its market growth during the forecast period. In addition, a micro-inverter system basically includes a communication gateway, expensive AC trunk cables, and different custom tools. The limited current of an AC trunk cable limits the number of inverters that can be connected to the same cable trunk. This further increases the overall installation cost which tends to hamper its adoption, especially in the residential and commercial sector.
