Solar PV Market To Reach 609.30 Billion By 2030 | CAGR 10.6%

Solar PV Market Growth & Trends

The global solar PV market size is expected to reach 609.30 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 10.6% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Rising demand for sustainable energy resources coupled with favorable regulatory policies is expected to drive the market growth over the forecast period.

Supportive regulations involving federal subsidy and incentives expected to be the prime factors impacting the industry growth on a positive note. Europe has been a major market for solar PV owing to the early adoption of the technology in the region owing to high consumer awareness and positive government outlook in the region.

Increasing demand for renewable energy sources owing to rising consumer awareness towards cost benefits associated with the technology is expected to propel growth. Furthermore, depleting fossil fuel resources coupled with the growing demand for durable energy sources is expected to have a positive impact on industry growth.

The technology offers low conversion efficiencies as compared to conventional energy sources including oil and biomass. Furthermore, the solar PV performance gets affected by various factors including the type of raw material used for solar cell manufacturing, availability of sunlight, and solar PV designs which is expected to hamper its growth over the forecast period.
