The Global Photovoltaic Market is estimated to grow in a significant way during the forecast period. It is expected that the target market that was valued at around $64,773.0 million in 2021 is projected to reach $333,725.1 million by 2026, recording a CAGR of 25.1% from 2021 to 2026.
Photovoltaic (PV) is a system that is used for the conversion of light into electricity using semiconducting materials which exhibits the photovoltaic effect. This phenomenon is studied in physics, photochemistry, and electrochemistry. These photovoltaic systems employ solar modules comprising a number of solar cells generating electrical power. Majorly, the installation of PVs may be ground-mounted, rooftop mounted, wall-mounted or floating, whereas, the mount may be fixed or use a solar tracker to follow the sun in the sky.
Photovoltaic energy is produced by the radiation of the sun where it is transformed into electricity by utilizing the photovoltaic cells. This Photovoltaic electricity can be used in powering electrical equipment that was fed into the electricity network for the user or stored in a battery. In the commercial scale of the target market, this photovoltaic technology can get integrated into solar lamps, emergency telephones, parking meters, trash compactors, temporary traffic signs, charging stations, and remote guard posts and signals. Moreover, this technology is also used in solar panels of solar buses and cars for providing electricity to run their motor. In addition, in the agricultural sector, photovoltaic electricity is widely used in solar drying to dry crops faster. Also, for providing power to remote locations, this technology is employed to generate electricity to run water pumps which is also a cheaper option than new electric lines.
Canadian Solar, a publicly-traded company that manufactures solar PV modules and runs large scale solar projects, has raised the fundings about USD 30 million from the China-Portuguese Speaking Countries Cooperation and Development Fund, which is utilized by their solar photovoltaic (PV) modules manufacturer unit, aiming to the development and construction of solar projects in Brazil.
Trina Solar, a Chinese company that develops and produces ingots, wafers, solar cells and solar modules, located in the province of Jiangsu, with multiple branches in the areas like the US, Europe, Asia, and Latin America, has launched its latest offerings for the global market which includes the ‘Duomax V’ bifacial double-glass panel and ‘Tallmax V’ series panel.
Yingli Green Energy Europe, SL, a subsidiary of Yingli Green Energy Holding Company Limited, has announced that it had supplied 110 MW of polycrystalline solar panels to Solaria Energía y Medio Ambiente )
Increasing energy demand because of the rising population, increasing demand for sustainable energy resources along with the favourable government regulations which are focusing on the reducing dependency on fossil fuels and helping control environmental pollution are favoring the need for renewable energy sources like solar energy, which is a significant driver for the growth of the global Photovoltaic Market.
Moreover, the need to decrease the carbon footprint and low-cost energy generation is expected to propel the demand for the photovoltaic and are supposed to drive the growth of the photovoltaic industry during the projection period. And the usage of this technology in the aerospace & defense sectors to generate electricity for the smooth working of satellites in space is the factor that is estimated to bolster the application of photovoltaic technology.
