Countries such as China, Germany, Spain, and the United States (U.S.) have some of the largest solar resources all over the world. There are two key ways to harness solar energy: photovoltaic (PV) and concentrated solar power (CSP). Developed and developing countries across the globe are strongly promoting solar as an alternative to conventional energy sources and are hence positively contributing to the market growth. Global electricity demand is increased considerably owing to economic development and population expansion. Improving standards of living and infrastructure development are creating a huge demand for electricity generation. According to a report from Fortune Business Insights, this is expected to drive the solar power market growth during the forecast period. The report projected that the global solar power market is expected to grow from $184.03 billion in 2021 to $293.18 billion in 2028 at a CAGR of 6.9% in forecast period 2021-2028. The report said: “Growing Investments in Solar Energy to Fuel the Market Due to environmental regulations, several companies are installing renewable energy plants. Several countries are also focused on eco-friendly power generation solutions to reduce their carbon emission. Solar energy is one of the low-cost renewable energy solutions. Hence numerous countries are investing heavily in solar energy… Supportive government policies play a key role in renewable energy installation. In numerous countries like U.S., China, and EU countries, policies like FiT, investment tax credits, and capital subsidies are key policies boosting solar installation… Solar PV Technology Segment held the major share of the market (over the past several years)… Growing adoption of rooftop solar and customer awareness about the usage of eco-friendly sources are projected to boost the residential segment’s growth between 2021 and 2028.” Active Companies in the markets today include First Tellurium Corp.
