Huawei, Sungrow and Growatt are the 3 largest inverter manufacturers in the world.The top 10 inverter manufacturers account for a worldwide market share of 82 percent.Wood Mackenzie reports that.The worldwide supply of inverters from solar panels increased by 22 percent - or 40,250 megawatts - to 225,386 megawatts last year.The growth is mainly driven by markets in Europe, India and Latin America, according to the market research firm.“Despite rising raw material prices, supply chain challenges and delayed completion of solar projects, global deliveries of PV inverters continue to rise,” said Wood Mackenzie research analyst Annie Rabi Bernard."Leading suppliers have grown and the top players continue to consolidate their market share in 2021."For the seventh consecutive year, Huawei and Sungrow continue to lead the 'peloton' by taking first and second positions respectively.Huawei's market share held steady at 23 percent in 2021, while Sungrow ranks second at around 21 percent, up from around 19 percent a year earlier.Runner-up Growatt accounted for 7 percent market share and drove SMA out of the top 3. Together, the top 3 suppliers control more than half of the global market for solar inverters.SMA is the first non-Chinese manufacturer in the top 10.Biggest riser GoodWe is the biggest riser in the top 10.The Chinese manufacturer gained 4 positions and was able to take fifth place thanks to large shipments to the Asia-Pacific region, especially China and South Korea.The company also scored the biggest growth in shipments, almost fivefold between 2019 and 2021.The Asia-Pacific region accounted for more than half of sales, or 116,064 megawatts.Shipments to China, India and Australia were responsible for the increase in demand, with Huawei and Sungrow maintaining their dominance in the region.Europe took 23% of the global market with 50,770 megawatts of shipments.Energy company Vattenfall has decided to increase the feed-in fee for solar panel owners who feed back more solar energy than they use by 140 percent to 16.8 euro cents per kilowatt hour.The Netherlands Authority for Consumers & Markets (ACM) has a sample letter available for consumers with solar panels who are disadvantaged by their energy supplier when implementing the netting scheme.US Customs has seized 3 gigawatt peak solar panels since June.The seizure stems from the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act that bans Chinese products made with forced labor.The website of Solar Magazine, part of Dé Duurzaam Uitgeverij, uses functional and analytical cookies.This form of cookies has no impact on your privacy.Read the cookie policy here.
