Solar Energy Market: Overview
Solar energy is radiation that can generate heat, cause chemical reactions, or generate electricity. The overall amount of solar energy on Earth far exceeds the world’s current and projected energy needs. However, this highly diffused source has the power to fulfill all future energy needs if adequately harnessed. Solar energy is expected to be particularly appealing as a renewable energy source in the twenty-first century due to its infinite supply and nonpolluting nature, compared to the finite fossil fuels of petroleum, coal, and natural gas.

Growth Factors
The falling costs of renewable energy, a critical input in the production process, have been a significant growth factor driving the surge in green hydrogen. Green hydrogen development is expected to increase in 2022 as the penetration of renewable energy over the grid increases due to its prospect of acting as long-duration and seasonal storage of the availability of fuel on demand to generate power.
Furthermore, the volatile prices of fossil fuels, the need for dependence disassociation on fossil fuel imports from politically unstable regions, environmental issues over the greenhouse gas emissions concerning fossil fuel use, government incentives, and other support programs make solar power more cost-competitive, and a shift in consumer preference are all significant factors driving the solar energy market.
Segmental Overview
The solar energy market is segmented into solar modules, technology, and application. Based on technology, the Photovoltaic systems segment accounted for the largest solar energy market, responsible for nearly 70% of the market in 2020. Furthermore, PV systems can typically range from portable systems or small rooftop generation to massive utility-scale generation plants, contributing to the high demand for PV systems.
Based on application, the industrial segment generated more than 35% of revenue and will dominate the global solar energy market in 20201. The rapidly expanding industrial sector and low-cost renewable energy have created enormous growth opportunities for solar power applications in the industrial sector. Further, the residential segment is the fastest growing segment, owing to increased customer awareness of the monitoring and environmental advantages associated with solar power, which is expected to fuel its overall growth in the residential segment.
Regional Overview
In terms of region, Asia Pacific dominated the solar energy market, with a market share of over 30% in 2021. The Asia Pacific is home to over half of the world’s population, providing a massive consumer base. Furthermore, China, Japan, and India are the top three countries in terms of solar power utilization. Rapid urbanization, rising disposable income, a hectic lifestyle, rising internet penetration, and increasing smartphone adoption are important macroeconomic factors driving the market’s growth in the Asia Pacific.
North America is expected to proliferate during 2022-2030. The United States is the most prominent country in the region, accounting for most solar power consumption. Furthermore, rising purchasing power, improved access to digital technologies, higher internet penetration, and increased adoption of smart devices are key factors driving North American solar energy market growth.
