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.
MARKET DYNAMICS
Technical advantages of micro-inverters over conventional solar inverters and significant capital inflows in renewable energy sector are driving the growth of the microinverter market. However, higher installation and maintenance costs of micro-inverters may restrain the growth of the microinverter market. Furthermore, increase in number of solar PV installations owing to incentive schemes by governments of different countries and technological innovations in inverters to improve their capabilities are anticipated to create a market opportunity for the microinverter market during the forecast period.

IMPACT OF COVID-19 ON MICROINVERTER MARKET
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the market is covered throughout the report. The pandemic had a negative impact on the microinverter market. COVID-19 has not only affected the commercial sector but has also impacted the global economy. With an increasing number of countries imposing and extending lockdowns, economic activities are likely to further drop, which will, in turn, impact the global economy. Furthermore, the market is expected to be adversely impacted by COVID-19 owing to the decrease in demand for power from commercial applications. Power generation in countries affected by COVID-19 has reduced due to lockdowns. This is because the demand for power from commercial end users has gone down in these countries. Though the domestic power demand has increased due to lockdowns, commercial and industrial end users still contribute the larger share in the consumption of power. The ongoing pandemic has ceased energy production at several solar plants in these countries, which is expected to reduce the demand for microinverters in the next few years.
