The global solar inverter market size was surpassed at USD 11.15 billion in 2023 and is expected to hit around USD 24.64 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 8.25% from 2024 to 2033.
The solar inverter market has been witnessing remarkable growth in recent years, driven by the increasing adoption of solar energy as a sustainable alternative to traditional sources of electricity. Solar inverters play a crucial role in converting the direct current (DC) generated by solar panels into alternating current (AC) usable for residential, commercial, and industrial applications.
The growth of the solar inverter market can be attributed to several key factors. Firstly, the declining costs of solar PV systems have significantly reduced barriers to adoption, driving increased demand for solar inverters. Additionally, heightened environmental concerns and the pursuit of renewable energy targets have spurred a global transition towards solar power, further fueling market growth. Moreover, rising investments in solar infrastructure projects, particularly in emerging economies, are driving the demand for solar inverters as essential components of solar energy systems. Finally, the integration of energy storage solutions and advancements in smart grid technologies are enhancing the functionality and value proposition of solar inverters, contributing to their continued market expansion. These factors collectively contribute to the growth trajectory of the solar inverter market, positioning it as a vital segment within the broader solar energy industry.

Based on product type, the market can be segmented into Central Inverter, Micro Inverter, and String Inverter. The Central Inverter segment held the majority share in 2023 contribution to around 50% in respect to the solar inverter market revenue. The increase in demand for central inverters from significant industrial and utility applications around the world is responsible for this. From 2023 to 2032, it is also anticipated that fast industrialization and the development of renewable energy infrastructure in developing nations like China, India, Japan, and others will increase demand for central inverters.
The On-Grid segment dominated the market in 2023. This growth is linked to increased investment in direct electricity supply rather than battery storage. Additionally, benefits of being utilized as on-grid solar inverters includes simple energy feeding, simple installation, cost effectiveness, and managing high electricity demand. These benefits are anticipated to drive the market's expansion in the following decades. Hence, the rising utilization of on-grid systems to enhance the capabilities of production is anticipated to positively impacts market growth.
The solar inverter market data has been bifurcated by end user into Residential, Commercial and Utilities. The Utilities segment held the majority share in 2023 contribution to around 45% in respect to the solar inverter market revenue. The utility sector is expanding for several reasons, primary including the rising demand for renewable energy, the decreasing cost of solar energy and equipment, and the emergence of government subsidies. The segment is growing as a result of the presence of major players who provide customers market-leading utility-scale solutions through their pre-integrated power plants to increase efficiency and lower balance-of-system costs.
Asia Pacific is projected to acquire the largest market share during the year 2023 with a share of 44%. China is the main contributor to the Solar Inverter Market's quick expansion in this region, as well as a major global competitor. A growing number of solar installations in developing countries has also helped to propel the market forward in the area. Increased investments in industrial automation solutions, increased emphasis on regulations that demand operational and workforce safety, expansion of power generation capacities of plants, electrification of the transportation sector, and reduction in the production and operational costs of power plants due to technological advancements in APAC's emerging economies are driving the Solar Inverter Market's growth.
Moreover, India contributes to the second largest share to the growth in the APAC region. Other major factors contributing to the growth of the Solar Inverter Market in India include rising consumer awareness, increasing participation of residential and commercial segments in solar system installations, supportive government policies and solar schemes, and increasing private sector involvement. However, due to a drop in market demand during the lockdown period across the country, the ongoing pandemic COVID-19 decreased the growth rate of market revenues in 2023. Furthermore, the market began to show indications of progress in the second part of the year, with the gradual opening of the economy and removal of lockdown measures and is expected to return to a normal development trajectory in the future years.
