Solar Energy Systems Market Growth & Trends

The global solar energy systems market size is expected to reach USD 607.8 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The industry is expected to grow at a CAGR of 15.7% from 2022 to 2030. Increasing demand for clean and renewable energy production coupled with stringent regulations regarding carbon emissions is expected to boost the industry growthover the forecast period. Governments across the world have started to adopt solar energy for power production due to it being clean and renewable. Many countries have set targets to reduce their carbon emissions and reduce reliance on conventional energy sources by promoting the use of solar energy for power production. The economies of scale achieved due to this increased demand have, in turn, decreased the cost of the components, and product installation viable on a smaller scale.

Increasing energy need from emerging economies, such as India, China, and Brazil, is expected to have a positive impact on the industry. The decline in the price of solar energy system components has increased the viability of product installations in residential and commercial sectors. The MRO sector in the industry is expected to grow significantly during the forecast period owing to the increasing adoption of solar energy systems leading to increasing demand for repair and overhaul of existing solar energy systems.Regions, such as Middle East & Africa and Asia Pacific, are expected to have significant growthover the forecast period owing to the high number of investments for solar energy in these regions coupled with rising energy demands. The prices of the components have been declining consistently for the last 10 years and this trend is expected to continue over the forecast period, which, in turn, willfuel the demand in the residential, commercial, and industrial sectors across the globe.
