According to the data by the International Energy Agency (IEA), power generation from solar PV has increased by 22% in 2019, to 720 TWh, which is up by 131 TWh globally in 2019. Rising government initiatives to promote the use of solar energy for various applications, as solar energy is a green and clean energy, are estimated to fuel the market growth.

Solar Power

The market is segmented by end-user into residential, industrial, commercial, and others, out of which, the commercial segment is anticipated to hold the notable share in the global bifacial solar market over the forecast period on account of rapid commercialization of solar plants, and increasing investment in renewable energy sources by government and private-sector companies. Bifacial solar can generate a larger amount of solar electricity, which is further estimated to boost the segment growth. 

Major Macro-Economic Indicators Impacting the Market Growth

Electricity Consumption

In 2018, the world’s total energy supply was 14282 Mtoe, wherein the highest share in terms of source was captured by oil, accounting for 31.6%, followed by coal (26.9%), natural gas (22.8%), biofuels and waste (9.3%), nuclear (4.9%), hydro (2.5%), and other (2.0%). Where there was an increase in energy demand in 2018, the year 2019 witnessed slow growth as the energy efficiency improved owing to decline in the demand for cooling and heating. However, in 2020, the electricity demand decreased by 2.5% in the first quarter of 2020 due to the outbreak of Coronavirus resulting in government imposed shutdowns in order to limit the spread of the virus, which was further followed by shutdown of numerous business operations impacting their growth. This also resulted in decline of 5.8% in the worldwide CO2 emissions which was recorded to be five times larger than the one recorded during the global financial crisis in 2009. However, in 2021, the demand for oil, gas and coal is estimated to witness growth, which is further projected to create opportunities for market growth. Moreover, rising environment degradation and awareness related to climate change is motivating many key players to employ sustainable energy strategies and invest significantly in environment-friendly power generation technologies with an aim to promote sustainable development among various nations around the world. Such factors are anticipated to promote the growth of the market in upcoming years.
