The article discusses the main directions of the development of converter equipment in Russia and worldwide. Major global trends in the development of converter equipment are assessed through the scope of priorities for technological development of the Russia’s energy sector. The main areas of application are analysed and the local inverter market is investigated, specifically in electric transport, solar and wind power generation, distributed smart power systems, including energy storage systems. Inverters are decomposed in minute detail, specifically in terms of the critical technologies and an electronic component base that need to be developed in Russia. Creation of advanced modules for inverters in Russia is exemplified with an ongoing project of develo** and establishing a production of specialized IGBT modules in MIDA body. Certain suggestions as to development of production of converter equipment in Russia through the cooperation of the state and the private sector are made.
