GCC Solar Power Market By Technology (Photovoltaic Systems, Concentrated Systems, Parabolic Trough, Solar Power Tower, Fresnel Reflectors, Dish Stirling), By Raw Material (Polycrystalline Silicon Cells, Cadmium Telluride, Monocrystalline Silicon Cells, Others), By Installation (Crystalline PV v/s Thin-Film PV), By Application (Residential, Commercial, Industrial), By Company, By Region, Forecast & Opportunities, 2026

The GCC Solar Power Market is expected to grow at an impressive rate during the forecast period. The GCC Solar Power Market is driven by the growing environmental concerns due to increasing greenhouse gases emissions and global warming. This has increased the need to shift towards cleaner forms of energy thereby positively influencing the market growth through 2026. Additionally, supportive government policies and grants & subsidies for facilitating the use of solar energy is further expected to propel the market growth over the next few years. Furthermore, depleting fossil fuels and growing need to ensure future energy safety is expected to foster the market growth during the forecast period. However, high initial costs involved in infrastructure and setup is expected to hamper the market growth. Besides, higher electricity cost and low capacity factor can further impede the market growth through 2026.

The GCC Solar Power Market is segmented based on technology, raw material, installation, application, company, and region. Based on technology, the market can be fragmented into photovoltaic systems, concentrated systems, parabolic trough, solar power tower, fresnel reflectors and dish stirling. The photovoltaic systems are expected to dominate the market owing to the increasing installations of solar panels and PV cells. Based on raw material, the market can be categorized into polycrystalline silicon cells, cadmium telluride, monocrystalline silicon cells and others. The monocrystalline silicon cells segment is expected to dominate the market on account of the growing investments in solar panels and the growing demand of PV cells from the industrial sector. Based on application, the market can be classified into the residential, commercial and industrial. The commercial segment is expected to dominate the market owing to the major installations in hotels, offices, hospitals, among others.
