The global Grid-forming Inverter Market Size is projected to grow from USD 680 million in 2023 to USD 1,042 million by 2028, at a CAGR of 8.9% according to a new report by MarketsandMarkets™. Grid-forming inverters play a crucial role in efficiently integrating variable renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind, into the electricity grid. Grid-forming inverters actively regulate the grid's frequency and voltage to ensure that it remains within acceptable operating limits, even under varying renewable energy output or load conditions. Unlike traditional grid-tied inverters that synchronize with an existing stable grid, grid-forming inverters have the unique capability to independently create a stable grid environment when operating in islanded or standalone mode.
The factors that drive the Grid-forming inverter market growth is driven by the global transition towards clean and sustainable energy solutions, as well as the need for technologies that can enhance grid stability, reliability, and resilience in the face of evolving energy challenges.
