Abstract
Description
The solar power generation market has grown rapidly in the last five years,
driven by a combination of factors including environmental concerns, rising
oil prices, technology developments and government legislation.
As a result of these developments, the photovoltaic (solar) inverter market
has grown sharply, and the nature of the market has changed substantially.
This study provides the only detailed and comprehensive analysis of the global
PV inverter market. It also provides assessment from the point of view of
power semiconductor vendors by providing forecasts by production and design
location as well as forecasts for power discretes and power modules.
The report provides market sizes and forecasts for different types of PV
inverter within each of the 14 countries/regions analysed. The report was
compiled over a 6-month period by collecting real sales and shipment data from
the largest suppliers to the market and forecasts produced by analysing data
relating to feed-in tariffs and other incentives. Forecasts for power
discretes and power modules are also presented.
