Another report from Fortune Business Insights projected that the global solar power market is expected to grow from 184.03 billion in 2021 to 293.18 billion n 2028 at a CAGR of 6.9%. The Grand View report added: “Application segments including residential, non-residential, and utility are expected to witness an increased number of installations. The residential sector has witnessed a significant upsurge over the past few years, on account of rising consumer awareness regarding environment protection coupled with subsidized module cost. In addition, low maintenance cost for solar PV as compared to other power generating units has resulted in a substantial demand for these modules over the past few years and the trend is anticipated to continue over the forecast period.” Active Companies in the markets today include Green Stream Holdings Inc. (OTCPK: GSFI), SunPower Corp. (NASDAQ: SPWR), Sunnova Energy International Inc. (NYSE: NOVA), JinkoSolar Holding Co., Ltd. (NYSE: JKS), Canadian Solar Inc. (NASDAQ: CSIQ).
Grandview continued: “Reduced carbon emission during electricity generation as compared to other sources of energy coupled with the availability of varied sizes of PV modules has led to a huge demand for solar PV over the past few years. Furthermore, the availability of solar radiation across the U.S. has assisted in the market growth over the past five years. Module prices for solar PV have declined over the past few years owing to the presence of various federal subsidies and rise in module installations. Furthermore, raw material prices for manufacturing solar cells have also declined sharply owing to various technological and manufacturing improvements. Supportive regulations involving federal subsidy and various state incentives are expected to augment market growth over the forecast period. Furthermore, technological advancements in solar PV module manufacturing coupled with declining raw material prices are expected to be key market drivers.”
