Germany's WS Tech ranks third, followed by Tesla and General Electric in the United States. A Chinese manufacturer entered the top ten: Sunshine Power ranked sixth.
The report predicts that this year's energy storage inverter shipments will increase by more than 50%, reaching 3 GW, and revenues will be nearly $400 million.
