Technological Innovations in Smart Inverters
Smart inverters are a more advanced type of power electronics that can make autonomous decisions to keep the grid stable and reliable. Smart inverters work autonomously while ensuring uninterrupted power flow without voltage fluctuations. Advanced features such as voltage and frequency sensors allow smart inverters to detect grid abnormalities and send feedback to utility operators. Moreover, smart inverters allow two-way communication with utility control centers, thereby enhancing their efficiency across residential and commercial applications.Delta's smart solar inverter solutions enable smart and cost-effective designs for industrial and small utility-scale PV power plants by maximizing energy yields even in challenging landscapes and locations. The smart inverter has more direct current (DC) overloading options, flexible maximum power point tracking (MPPT) channels, fuse-less or in-line fuse options, and wireless communication systems. With the mentioned features, smart solar inverters are capable to reduce clipping loss.
Additionally, Interstate Renewable Energy Council (IREC) focuses on updating the existing technical standards and codes such as IEEE 1547 and UL 1741 to ensure optimum utilization of smart inverters owing to the constant increase in the number of DER grids. The organization focuses on promoting the integration of smart solar inverters across solar grids to increase the hosting capacity of DER, grid reliability, and consistency across deployments. All these innovative features are likely to spur the market growth during the forecast period.
Europe Solar PV Inverters Market Overview
The Europe solar PV inverters market is Europe is segmented into Germany, France, Italy, the UK, Russia, and the Rest of Europe. Solar is a major source of renewable energy in most European countries. Over the past few years, several solar power projects have been developed in the region, and many are under construction. For instance, in February 2022, AMPYR Solar Europe (ASE), a European conglomerate, secured a massive facility of US$ 455 million from CarVal Investors. This project would be executed across Europe to bring more than 2GW of solar power capacity into operation by 2025. The funds secured from CarVal Investors would be employed to cover the construction costs of solar assets, as well as to cover capital development and operational or maintenance expenses. Although the Netherlands, Germany, and the UK will be the first development sites for the ASE in this project, it further plans to develop solar power sites in other European countries in the later phases. The company has also planned to provide additional funds for energy storage projects.Europe Solar PV Inverters Market Revenue and Forecast to 2030 (US$ Million)
