2013 , micro inverter shipments is likely to first break 500MW, however , in terms of price competition , suppliers will also face many challenges. The face of the enormous potential of emerging markets, many suppliers have introduced new products , SMA and Power-One is one of two large photovoltaic inverter manufacturer. 2013 , inverter market competition will be very intense, micro-inverter prices are likely to fall 16%.

Although the 2013 micro- inverters to achieve double-digit percentage decline in prices , but the rapid growth in shipments of its total revenue gains may still be more than 250 million U.S. dollars . However , micro-inverter prices in the coming years will continue to decline. IHS predicts that total global micro-inverter market revenue will reach $ 700 million in 2017.

EnphaseEnergy as the world 's leading suppliers of micro inverters , residential PV market in the U.S. last year, the largest share . However, as other micro-inverter increasing number of suppliers , the enterprises are facing increasingly fierce competition . Therefore , Enphase and other suppliers have Dingzhun new markets , and actively promote the development of micro- inverter systems in the commercial sector , in order to further expand its market share.

Enphase strategy pursued now has a growing signs of success . Recently, the company announced the installation of 2.3 megawatts of solar projects in Canada supply micro- inverter. Third of the world 's micro-off grid inverter shipments in 2017 will be included in the Business Systems Division , while in 2012 this figure was only 9%. In addition, in 2017 , the vast majority of micro-inverter will be used to scale for the 10-100kW systems.
