Description
This dataset provides detailed quarterly market volume data for PV inverter (string/hybrid) in Germany for the period Q1/2021 to Q4/2031. PV inverters convert the direct current of photovoltaic modules into grid-compliant alternating current; hybrid inverters additionally connect a battery storage system. The data covers both first installation in new systems and replacement in existing systems. The data is broken down into the four main construction segments and is also available as a total market figure. Forecasts are based on a model-based approach using building completions, building permits, renovation rates, and product-specific market shares and consumption intensities. The model has been validated using the German market master data register (Marktstammdatenregister) of the Federal Network Agency as well as industry association statistics and sector studies. Unit: thousand units. The dataset is delivered in CSV format with all 44 quarters.
