Global Solar Charge Controller Market Highlights over 2022 – 2030
The global solar charge controller market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of ~15% over the forecast period, i.e., 2022 – 2030. The growth of the market can be attributed to the increasing need to control the voltage and power supply from the solar panels. Solar charge controllers are primarily used in off-grid solar panels, to regulate the flow of energy into the batteries. The rising adoption of solar energy across the world, has led to the demand for a controller system to regulate the working of these panels. The growing awareness for the use of clean and renewable energy to curb the rising pollution level is a major growth driver for the market. Moreover, the increasing prominence of utility of solar energy on residential scale is expected to boost the market growth. According to the data by the International Energy Agency (IEA), solar power generation crossed 720 TWh in 2019, registering a growth of 22% from last year.
The market is segmented by end-user into residential, commercial, and others, out of which, the residential segment is anticipated to hold the notable share in the market over the forecast period as most residential usage of solar power plants is off-grid, which requires charge controllers for proper functioning. Solar charge controllers transform and control the flow of the current generated from solar panels and pass it to the connected batteries. This prevents the batteries from over charging and discharging. This is estimated to boost the growth of the market.
Major Macro-Economic Indicators Impacting the Market Growth
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.
Global Solar Charge Controller Market Regional Synopsis
On the basis of geographical analysis, the global solar charge controller market is segmented into five major regions including North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America and Middle East & Africa region. The market in North America region is estimated to grab major share over the forecast period on the back of increasing adoption of solar farms as a commercial activity, and technological advancement in the region.
