Solar power plants generate DC power, which is incompatible with common household appliances. Solar inverters convert this fluctuating DC output of PV solar panels to usable AC, which can be used to power electric appliances and devices. Commercial solar systems are installed on rooftops or on the ground to create renewable energy, allowing users to take advantage of various government incentives. PV systems on a commercial scale generate green energy and save money on electricity costs. A rapid increase in energy demands necessitates utilizing alternative energy sources. Carbon emissions are strongly linked to traditional energy sources based on fossil fuels, such as coal and petroleum. As a result, renewable energy sources, especially solar energy, are gaining traction in electricity generation. The growing inclination toward solar energy for electricity generation is expected to drive the demand for portable power inverters in the coming years.
The rising concerns about global warming and increasing measures to minimize dependency on fossil fuels are also bolstering the adoption of solar energy. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA) estimates, solar energy generation capacity is expected to reach 3,300 TWh by 2030. Several countries, including India, are attempting to build large solar power-producing facilities to harness solar energy. These factors are expected to offer lucrative opportunities to players operating in the Asia Pacific portable power inverter market during the forecast period.
Vendors in the APAC portable power inverter market can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets by offering innovative features and technologies. This factor is likely to drive the market at a promising CAGR during the forecast period.
