Global Market for Photovoltaic is Anticipated to grow at a Significant Pace i.e., USD 156.8 Billion during the Forecast Period 2025 - 2030

Published Date: Mar, 2024

The report "Photovoltaic Market by Type (Modules, Inverters, and Balance of System), by Technology (Monocrystalline Silicon, Thin Film, Polycrystalline Silicon, and Others), by Grid Type (On-Grid and Off-Grid), by Installation (Ground Mounted, Rooftop, and Others), by Application (Residential, Non-Residential, and Utilities) - Global Forecast to 2030", The global photovoltaic market is anticipated to grow at a 10.5% CAGR during the forecast period. The government’s supportive policies, increased demand for PV systems in commercial and residential applications, decreasing energy storage devices and PV systems’ cost, rising number of PV installations and renewable energy projects, and technological development in solar cell manufacturing will flourish the market growth for the global photovoltaic industry. The global photovoltaic market has experienced tremendous growth. owing to the extensive use of photovoltaics in various applications, including power plants, rural zap, housetops and building coordinated frameworks, etc. Waste disposal systems, charging stations, stop meters, sunlight-powered lights, traffic signs, emergency telephones, remote gatekeeper signals, and posts all use photovoltaic technology. Additionally, it is used to provide electricity for the vehicle engine in the sunlight-based chargers of solar-powered transportation and vehicles.

In May 2022, JinkoSolar contracted to deliver 200 MW of its Tiger Neo PV modules to China General Nuclear Power Group (GCN). The n-type Topcon cells used in the solar panels have an average efficiency of up to 24%. The panels will be used by GCN for a number of projects in Inner Mongolia, China.
