Along with these, rapidly growing urbanization, and increasing adoption of renewable energy sources for electricity generation around the world. According to the International Energy Agency, 421,131 GWh of electricity was generated from primary solid biofuels, up from 390,848 GWh and 366,375 GWh in 2017 and 2016 respectively.

Electricity Generation

The market is segmented by output power rating into below 10 kW, 10–50 kW, 50–100 kW, and above 100 kW, out of which, the below 10 KW segment is anticipated to hold the largest share in the global DC/AC inverter market. This can be accounted to the suitability of inverters with power rating less than 10 KW for use in commercial and residential sectors, and rising installation of residential solar PV systems on rooftops. Additionally, on the basis of sales channel, the indirect sales channel segment is assessed to grab the largest share during the forecast period owing to the largescale adoption of these sales channel by inverter manufacturers for providing their solutions to several industry verticals. Apart from these, presence of well-established sales networks of major players in the market is also predicted to boost the segment’s growth in the imminent time. 

Major Macro-Economic Indicators Impacting the Market Growth

Electricity Consumption

In 2018, the world’s total energy supply was 14282 Mtoe, wherein the highest share in terms of source was captured by oil, accounting for 31.6%, followed by coal (26.9%), natural gas (22.8%), biofuels and waste (9.3%), nuclear (4.9%), hydro (2.5%), and other (2.0%). Where there was an increase in energy demand in 2018, the year 2019 witnessed slow growth as the energy efficiency improved owing to decline in the demand for cooling and heating. However, in 2020, the electricity demand decreased by 2.5% in the first quarter of 2020 due to the outbreak of Coronavirus resulting in government imposed shutdowns in order to limit the spread of the virus, which was further followed by shutdown of numerous business operations impacting their growth. This also resulted in decline of 5.8% in the worldwide CO2 emissions which was recorded to be five times larger than the one recorded during the global financial crisis in 2009. However, in 2021, the demand for oil, gas and coal is estimated to witness growth, which is further projected to create opportunities for market growth. Moreover, rising environment degradation and awareness related to climate change is motivating many key players to employ sustainable energy strategies and invest significantly in environment-friendly power generation technologies with an aim to promote sustainable development among various nations around the world. Such factors are anticipated to promote the growth of the market in upcoming years.
