Upsurge in construction activities, increase in demand for electricity worldwide, and enactment of government policies for sustainable renewable energy, globally, would drive the growth of the global solar power equipment market
Allied Market Research published a report, titled, "Solar Power Equipment Market by Equipment (Solar Panels, Mounting, Racking, & Tracking System, Storage System, and Others) and Application (Residential, Nonresidential, and Utility): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2018-2025." The report offers insights on major market segments, top investment pockets, key player positioning, drivers & opportunities, and strategic developments in the industry. According to the report, the global solar power equipment market garnered $76.27 billion in 2017 and is projected to reach $188.3 billion through 2025, growing at a CAGR of 12.5% from 2018 to 2025.
Surge in demand for electricity globally, implementation of government policies to deploy solar power systems, and widespread installation of solar panels in homes to reduce carbon footprint and minimize electricity costs drive the growth of the solar power equipment market. However, high cost of deploying such systems and dependence on sunlight availability & direct normal irradiance (DNI) are expected to hinder the market growth. In addition, growing awareness on use of green, eco-friendly energy and innovative technological advancements in the sector are expected to provide lucrative opportunities for the growth of the global solar power equipment market.
