A grid-tied inverter is a power electronics device designed to convert direct current (DC) into alternating current (AC), facilitating the injection of electricity generated from an external power source, such as a solar plant, into the power grid. Notably, grid-tied inverters operate without the need for batteries and find extensive use in systems utilizing solar panels, wind turbines, and hydroelectric plants.
The primary types of grid-tied inverters are low-frequency inverters and high-frequency inverters. A low-frequency inverter is a device designed to convert direct current (DC) electricity into alternating current (AC) electricity at a relatively low frequency, usually under 5 kHz. These inverters are utilized in various applications such as DC voltage sources, grid connections, and others, with applications spanning residential, commercial, industrial, and other sectors.

The grid- tied inverters market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $5.6 billion in 2024 to $6.08 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to government incentives and subsidies, technological advancements in solar energy, increasing adoption of renewable energy sources, grid modernization initiatives, declining costs of solar photovoltaic systems.
The grid- tied inverters market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.98 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.0%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growing demand for clean energy solutions, expansion of solar power capacity, regulatory support for renewable energy integration, advancements in grid-tied inverter technology, increasing focus on energy efficiency and sustainability. Major trends in the forecast period include adoption of hybrid grid-tied inverters with energy storage capabilities, emergence of smart grid technologies for improved grid management, integration of internet of things (iot) for remote monitoring and control, development of microgrid systems for decentralized energy generation, emphasis on grid resilience and reliability in response to climate change impacts.
The rise in solar power system installations is expected to drive growth in the grid-tied inverter (GTI) market in the coming years. A solar power system is a device that captures solar radiation and converts it into usable electrical or thermal energy. Solar panels in these systems are connected to a grid-tied inverter, which converts the direct current (DC) generated by the panels into alternating current (AC). For example, in July 2023, the International Energy Agency, a France-based intergovernmental organization, reported that solar photovoltaic (PV) generation saw a substantial increase of 270 terawatt-hours (26%), reaching nearly 1,300 terawatt-hours in 2022. Projections suggest that by 2027, the installed power capacity of solar PV will surpass coal, positioning it as the world's largest source of power capacity.
Key players in the grid-tied inverter market are actively innovating and introducing solutions such as grid-tied residential energy storage to enhance their market positions. The integration of grid-tied residential energy storage solutions contributes to market growth by driving demand, fostering technological advancements, and ensuring seamless integration with diverse grid environments. In September 2023, Canadian Solar Inc., a Canada-based renewable energy company, unveiled the EP Cube Lite, a cost-effective residential energy storage solution showcased at RE+ in Las Vegas. This scaled-down version of the EP Cube enhances financial benefits for U.S. households embracing integrated solar and battery storage. With scalable capacities ranging from 6.6 kWh to 19.9 kWh, the system supports compatibility with existing PV systems, allowing for customization. Featuring an integrated hybrid inverter and stackable storage modules, the lightweight components facilitate swift installation, promoting accessibility to energy storage and sustainable practices.
In October 2023, Hitachi Energy, a Switzerland-based power technologies company, completed the acquisition of Eks Energy for $1.2 billion. This strategic move is expected to fortify Hitachi Energy's position in the smart grid and smart city market, while expanding its capabilities in the industrial IoT segment. The acquisition enables Hitachi Energy to offer a more comprehensive suite of products and services, including advanced grid support, energy storage, and distributed energy resources management. Eks Energy, a UK-based provider of advanced power electronics and energy management services, played a crucial role in enhancing Hitachi Energy's portfolio and capabilities in emerging segments.
