Solar PV Panels Market Growth & Trends
The global solar PV panels market size is expected to reach USD 286.64 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The industry is anticipated to advance at a CAGR of 7.8% from 2022 to 2030. Increasing demand for sustainable carbon-free solar energy along with strict regulations related to climate change prevention are likely to support the growing demand for solar PV panels during the projection period.
The market is primarily driven by the increasing adoption of solar PV panels across the commercial, utility, and residential segments. The demand for solar photovoltaic panels across these sectors is rising due to huge price variance between retail electricity and solar-generated electricity. European countries such as Italy, Germany, and Spain have attained grid parity, with solar power having a lower price when compared with retail power.
Germany is a developed economy and a leading market in Europe. Over the past few years, the country invested in unconventional power generation technologies to reduce its reliance on conventional sources such as crude oil, coal, and others, as well as to be energy self-sufficient. Apart from solar panel, other key components include solar inverter and battery. Major solar system parts manufacturers include Tesla, SunPower, and LG Chem. Some manufacturers have forward integrated into the value chain, wherein they provide solar system parts directly to residential end-users along with the required EPC services to deploy solar PV systems.
In Mexico, factors such as approval procedures for solar projects sized from 500kW to 2MW by net metering, along with the government's initiative to expand and promote the domestic PV market, are expected to support market growth. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in hindered market growth for solar PV panels in the residential sector, owing to factors such as disruptions in the supply chain resulting in delays in existing projects. Furthermore, demand has declined for solar PV systems in some of the states by residential end-users to sustain during the COVID-19 pandemic.
