A string inverter is a standalone device used for converting the power obtained from solar panels to usable electricity for residential applications. Each panel is connected to a series, or rows, of string inverters that combine the obtained direct current (DC) and convert it to alternating current (AC). String inverters are also integrated with power optimizers and smart modules to mitigate the impact of shading and offer enhanced cost-effectiveness and operational efficiency. They can be deployed on-grid or off-grid and are also used for voltage tracking, grid communications, supplying power during shutdowns and troubleshooting. In comparison to the traditionally used central inverters, string inverters can be utilized in small utility installations with minimal power requirements.

String Inverter Market Trends:
The increasing demand for renewable energy resources across the globe is one of the key factors driving the growth of the market. Moreover, the widespread adoption of solar power systems for residential, commercial and industrial applications is providing a thrust to the market growth. Industries are increasingly utilizing non-conventional sources of energy to reduce carbon footprint and minimize the costs of energy conversions for large-scale projects. String inverters require minimal monitoring and maintenance and offer enhanced reliability, scalability and flexibility of operations. Additionally, various technological advancements, such as the development of utility-scale solar photovoltaic installations that are used for generating electricity for distribution applications, are acting as other growth-inducing factors. These inverters ensure uninterrupted power supply for industrial operations and infrastructural development projects. Other factors, including the implementation of favorable government policies for sustainable development, along with increasing investments in the electrification of remote and rural areas, especially in the developing economies, are anticipated to drive the market toward growth.
