Solar Energy share research by applications and regions for 2016 – 2023

in #solar6 years ago

Cumulatively, more than 178 GW of power was installed in 2015 and is estimated to reach more than 600 GW over the forecast period, including both photovoltaic and concentrated thermal power. U.S. solar energy market size is expected to witness approximately 40 GW cumulative capacity by the end of 2016.

Rising population coupled with increasing non-conventional energy prices are likely to drive market growth in Asia Pacific. China solar energy market size was dominant and accounted for more than 10.8 GW installations, followed by Japan with 9.7 GW installations in 2015.

UK contributed more than 2.4 GW to the Europe power installation market in 2015, followed by Germany and France. Middle East and Africa is expected to grow at as significant rate; increase in electricity prices and government subsidies are likely to be the key growth factors in the region.

This energy can be segmented into photovoltaic and concentrated thermal. Photovoltaic (PV) market size was estimated around 40 GW in 2015. Solar energy market trends include an estimated shift towards off-grid installations in some countries, where a large percentage of the population does not have access to a national grid. Concentrated solar thermal market size is estimated to reach more than 25 GW installations during the forecast period.

Rising environmental concerns such as greenhouse gas emission accompanied by increasing energy consumption is leading industries towards more sustainable and cost-effective energy resources. These factors are likely to positively drive the solar energy market growth.

Adoption is increasing due to natural resource depletion and increasing environmental consciousness. It is a reasonable fossil fuels substitute as well as an inexhaustible and affordable technology with huge long-term benefits. More than 39% of energy is extracted with the help of coal which causes environmental pollution.

Photovoltaic energy is preferred over concentrated solar due to its high utility; Europe was the major contributor in 2015. Manufacturers are shifting from multicrystalline to monocrystaline solar cells owing to its high efficiency, compact design and durability. Concentrated thermal technology is less popular because it requires direct sun radiation rather than diffuse light and is not economical for small installations.

Initial cost during installation is anticipated to be a hindrance for industry growth. However, low operating and maintenance cost in long run is anticipated to favor the solar energy market price trend.

The technology is beneficial on account of several incentive schemes such as feed in tariff (FIT), tax rebates for renewable energy usage, and subsidies from government. FIT is a mechanism designed to drive investment in renewable energy technologies. It has provisions such as guaranteed grid access, long term fix price and reducing contract prices for further new installations. PV system market price trends have declined of around 75% in less than a decade.

U.S. implemented Renewable Energy Investment Tax Credit (ITC) in 2006, which gives installations to apply up to 30% cost design with no maximum credit limit. As per the U.S. government reports, this regulation expires in 2016.
The global solar energy market share is fragmented due to the presence of numerous participants. Major companies include Tata Power, BHEL, Abengoa, Canadian Solar, Renesola, Sunways AG, Motech Industries, and Solar World AG.
