The Indian solar electric system and inverter market is driven by the rising awareness regarding renewable power resources. The market is further aided by the maintenance cost related to solar electric systems, which is comparatively low, helping it gain traction, especially in an emerging economy such as India. Telangana is the leading regional market in India.
Market Segmentation
A solar panel is referred to as a collection of cells which is utilised to produce electricity using sunlight as the energy source, whereas a solar inverter is referred to as a device which helps in the conversion of the direct current produced by the panels into alternating current. This current is then distributed to either power grids, storage batteries, or houses for operating various appliances.The Indian solar electric system market is bifurcated on the basis of technology type into:
- Crystalline Silicon
- Thin Films
On the basis of installation type, the Indian solar electric system market is segmented into:
- Ground Mounted
- Rooftop
The Indian solar inverter market is segmented on the basis of inverter type into:
- Central Inverter
- String Inverter
- Others
The Indian solar inverter market is segmented on the basis of region into:
- Telangana
- Tamil Nadu
- Rajasthan
- Andhra Pradesh
- Gujarat
- Karnataka
Market Analysis
The Indian solar electric system and inverter market is driven by the constant shortage in the electricity supply across the country. The market is further aided by the rising population, in conjunction with rising adoption rates of electronic appliances and heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, and electronic appliances, which has resulted in the escalating use and consequent deficit in the supply of electricity. In addition to this, the market is witnessing a reduction of the prices of equipment used in the production process of such electric systems, thereby reducing their average selling price and boosting the Indian solar electric system and inverter market growth.The market is aided by the rising awareness of the risks associated with the use of conventional energy sources, leading to a significant shift in the preference of consumers toward cleaner power sources. Moreover, several government initiatives are encouraging the use of these systems and, consequently, impacting their sales positively. For example, the Government of India offers incentives and subsidies for the installation of rooftop systems. The government has taken many initiatives under its wings, which aim to achieve a national solar rooftop target of 40 GW till 2021-2022.
