Distributed Inverters Overview
The North Star Solar PV Network provides you with relevant content about distributed inverters, helping you stay updated on the latest developments in this area. For more information about distributed inverters, please follow the North Star Solar PV Network.
Currently, there are approximately 4,491 results related to distributed inverters, highlighting significant issues such as substandard materials and hidden cracks leading to fires in power plants. The ongoing price competition has raised serious quality concerns within the industry.
In response, the China Photovoltaic Industry Association has announced plans to collaborate with the China Electronics Standardization Institute and authoritative third-party quality inspection organizations to carry out quality inspections on component products, particularly photovoltaic modules in the distributed market. The procurement sector is also taking action.
The State Administration for Market Regulation and local regulatory bodies have organized multiple special inspections targeting photovoltaic modules and inverter products.
Recent Industry Highlights
On March 14, the North Star Solar PV Network published a weekly news recap covering the period from March 10 to March 14, 2025. This recap examines the new changes and trends expected in distributed photovoltaics due to recent policy shifts.
Key Trends in Distributed Photovoltaics
In 2025, two major policies were implemented, bringing transformative changes to the distributed photovoltaic sector. One significant development involved GoodWe’s SDT G4 series, setting a new technical benchmark in the residential market by enhancing user experience and human-centered design.
In Guangdong’s Heyuan city, efforts are underway to address the “big machine, small network” issue in distributed photovoltaics. The government aims to clear inactive renewable energy projects and ensure the lawful use of certified photovoltaic modules and inverters. According to the Heyuan City Distributed Photovoltaic Implementation Plan (2024-2030), the target is to achieve a grid-connected installed capacity of 2 million kW by the end of 2025.
Product Launches and Innovations
On March 10, Midea launched its grid-connected photovoltaic inverter at the Jinan photovoltaic exhibition. This product boasts ten safety protection systems, high conversion efficiency, and a wide voltage adaptability range. Its various power segments, ranging from 20 kW to 40 kW, make it suitable for diverse applications, from distributed power stations to commercial and residential settings.
During the same exhibition, Huawei showcased its intelligent photovoltaic solutions, including configurations for large projects like the 35.88 MW distributed photovoltaic project at the FAW-Volkswagen East China base, significantly reducing operational costs by producing 40 million kWh of green electricity annually.
Market Growth and Expectations
Data from the National Energy Administration indicates that in 2024, China added 118 GW of new distributed photovoltaic installations, marking a 23% increase year-on-year and accounting for 42.6% of the total installed capacity for the year. The flexible market dynamics and installation environments provide distributed photovoltaics with more opportunities than centralized systems.
At the 2025 Jinan International Solar Energy Exhibition, several major players, including Jinko Solar, LONGi Green Energy, and Trina Solar, displayed their latest products, while distributed photovoltaic platform providers introduced attractive policies and innovative models to enhance investment attraction.
Another notable trend is the extension of both equipment manufacturers and platform providers into energy storage, reflecting the growing integration of photovoltaic and storage systems.
Future Directions
As the market evolves, companies like GoodWe are reimagining energy equipment design, focusing on user experience and adaptability to various scenarios. The ongoing advancements in inverter technology are set to further enhance the operational efficiency and reliability of distributed photovoltaic systems.
