Solar Power Market Report and Forecast 2025-2034
Description
The global solar power market size a value of more than USD 232.48 Billion in 2024. The market is further expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.10% between 2025 and 2034, reaching a value of USD 461.62 Billion by 2034.
Key Trends in the Market
Solar power refers to the energy that is emitted from the sun which can be converted into thermal or electrical energy, either directly or indirectly. There are three types of solar energy systems, namely solar thermal, solar photovoltaic, and concentrated solar power. While solar thermal is used at a small scale for heating, solar photovoltaic and concentrated solar power are used for electricity on a larger scale for utility, residential, and non-residential applications.
The EMR’s report titled “Solar Power Market Report and Forecast 2025-2034 offers a detailed analysis of the market based on the following segments:
Market Breakup by Technology
Solar photovoltaic technology holds a significant share in the solar power market because of high number of instalments of new solar photovoltaic projects all around the globe. The reduced cost of the photovoltaic technologies and improved energy yield and panel efficiency has further enhanced the adoption rate of solar photovoltaic technology fuelling the growth of the market. Among the solar photovoltaic technology types, mono-Si is expected to observe rapid growth because of its better durability, efficiency, and compact design. As photovoltaic solar panels directly generate direct electric current, they are considered to offer superior efficiency.
Concentrated solar power technology is also expected to observe growth in the coming years as it is capable of storing energy for later use. It uses solar power to heat substances which then drive engines and generators. The parabolic trough type of concentrated solar power technology is widely commercialised with numerous applications in end use sectors, solidifying its market presence.
Market Share by Region
Asia Pacific has been dominating the solar power market and is expected to continue its strong position in the forecast period as well. Improved standards of living, suitable solar irradiance, growing populations, presence of key market players, and increasing demand for electricity have been supporting the growth of the market in the Asia Pacific region. China specifically has a substantial capacity for solar power production and is a manufacturing base for multiple components for solar panels.
Europe has also been observing growth in the market owing to the installation of a large number of solar photovoltaic projects in European Union countries. Moreover, growing number of solar farms, supportive regulations by various governments, and renewable energy targets are further contributing to the growth of the solar power market in Europe.
Competitive Landscape
