In a year marked by exceptional growth, PV inverter shipments to Europe soared to an impressive 92 GWac in 2022, contributing to 28% of the global PV market. This growth represents an impressive 82% increase year-on-year from 2021.
GoodWe's dedication to delivering cutting-edge solutions propelled the company to the third position last year, following the two industry giants Huawei and Sungrow. Despite challenges such as the pandemic, disruptions in the supply chain, and escalating raw material prices, GoodWe remained resilient by sustaining significant investments in research and development, amounting to 8% of its revenue.
