Micro Inverter Market Reseach, 2030

The Global Micro Inverter Market size was valued at $2.4 billion in 2020, and is projected to reach $13.5 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 19.7% from 2021 to 2030.

A micro inverter is an electrical device that converts direct current (DC) from solar modules into alternating current (AC) in photovoltaic systems. These inverters are often installed separately on each solar panel to convert DC power to AC power at the device power source. In addition, a micro inverter is easy to install and has simpler operations, compared to string inverters and central inverters. Furthermore, it also helps to produce optimal power, by performing maximum power point tracking (MPPT) for the connected module. Moreover, it offers several benefits over traditional inverters, such as greater reliability, higher production, and improved safety.
