SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2022


the Future
of Energy

Last year, 2022, was pivotal for the energy industry as both energy demand and energy prices continued to climb, historic legislation was enacted, and PV technology broadened its deployment beyond electricity generation and into storage and energy management.

LET’S DIVE DEEPER:

SolarEdge is a global leader in high-performance smart energy technology. By leveraging world-class engineering capabilities and with a relentless focus on innovation, we create smart energy products and solutions that power our lives and drive future progress.

SolarEdge was founded in 2006 by five visionaries who saw the possibility to revolutionize the way power is harvested from the sun. One of our earliest innovations was an intelligent optimized inverter solution that transformed the solar industry and has led to SolarEdge becoming the number one inverter company (by revenues) for 4 years consecutively[1].

LET’S DIVE DEEPER:

Electrification. Decarbonization. Decentralization. Digitization.

These four words represent the keys to a smart, clean renewable energy future that will power the world for generations to come.

With demand on the rise to meet growing population requirements[2], global electricity consumption is expected to increase by nearly 50% by 2050 compared to 2020[3]. There is no better, cheaper, more accessible way to meet these demands than by harvesting the power of the sun to generate electricity for all. The solar energy share of the global installed electricity capacity mix is likely to increase from 11% in 2019 to 32% in 2050[4]. This share of solar energy will represent more than 30% of the expected renewable energy capacity available from all sources.
