Solar Power Market to Surge Exponentially Due to Reduction in Dependency on Fossil Fuels

The global solar power market size is projected to show robust growth by reaching USD 373.84 billion by 2029. Fortune Business Insights™ in its report titled “Solar Power Market Size, Share & COVID-19 Impact Analysis, By Technology {Solar Photovoltaic (PV) (Mono-Si, Thin Film, Multi-Si, and Others) and Concentrated Solar Power (Parabolic Trough, Power Tower, and Linear Fresnel)}, By Application (Residential, Non-residential, and Utility), and Regional Forecast, 2022-2029” observes that the market size in 2021 stood at USD 167.83 billion and reached USD 234.86 billion in 2022. The market is expected to witness a strong CAGR of 6.9% during 2022-2029. Growing concerns regarding the reduction of the dependency on fossil fuels and reducing the carbon emissions from burning are projected to drive market growth. Growing adoption of renewable sources for power generation is expected to expand market development.

 Decline in Various Activities Led to a Negative Market Growth

The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted various sectors. It slowed down the economic activities, transport, and trade bringing energy usage down by 4%. About 70 % of the world’s solar panel is manufactured in China, and around 10-15% of the reserve is accommodated by Chinese companies working in Southeast Asia. In February, solar PV manufacturing facilities in China paused or declined production due to lockdowns in several areas.  

Growing Adoption of Renewable Sources of Energy to Propel Market Improvement

Growing adoption of renewable sources of energy for the generation of power is anticipated to drive the solar power market growth. Renewable sources of energy help in the reduction of carbon emissions. They act as an economical source of everyday power and are being looked upon as the best possible replacement for conventional power sources such as coal and oil products. The growing population in developing countries impacts energy consumption and generation. The construction of new grids and mass storage systems by utilities that make use of the captured energy from such sources of energy is set to propel market development.
