Solar Panel Mounting Structures Market size was over USD 16.58 billion in 2024 and is anticipated to cross USD 66.68 billion by 2037, witnessing more than 11.3% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2025-2037. In the year 2025, the industry size of solar panel mounting structures is estimated at USD 18.08 billion. The market growth is due to the increasing need for sustainability, and thus, the world today focuses on how to get a better, cleaner, and greener future. According to the International Energy Agency's (IEA) January 2024 report, the usage of renewable energy reached an estimated 507 GW in 2023, which is almost 50% higher than in 2022, and with continuous governmental support in 130+ countries. This is causing the solar panel mounting structures market to witness a substantial growth rate in the forecasted years.
In addition, solar energy generation emits less carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than traditional energy sources including coal, oil, and petroleum. Also, this sector will expand as a result of growing off-grid solar installations in emerging economies as well as increased public and private sector investments in the implementation of renewable energy sources.

Product Type (Rooftop Mounted, Ground Mounted)
In solar panel mounting structures market, rooftop segment is likely to account for around 54% share by 2037. The segment growth can be attributed to the advantage of being easily installed and requiring less initial and maintenance commitment for both residential and commercial buildings. The rooftop mounting systems last 15-20 years on average, which is a longer lifespan. Rooftop solar panels saw tremendous growth throughout the projection period as a result of solar panels becoming more and more common in the commercial and residential sectors to meet the requirement for electricity.
Due to government incentives, homeowners favor rooftop solar installations for producing sustainable energy. Furthermore, because rooftop solar panels are higher, face direct sunlight, and are not affected by temperature variations, they are more efficient. Therefore, these factors are propelling the lucrative growth of the rooftop segment.
End-user (Residential, Commercial, Industrial)
The residential segment is set to garner a notable share shortly and is likely to remain the second largest segment in the end-user of the solar panel mounting structures market revenue share due to the main advantages of installing solar power in homes, which are lowering carbon emissions, producing clean, free electricity by harnessing the sun's plentiful energy, and eventually lowering electricity costs.
For instance, about 4.5% of the global electricity generation will be accounted for by solar PV. With its recent growth, solar PV is expected to reach installations of about 3.6 million by 2022. In the residential sector, rooftop mounting installation is typically possible due to the appropriate use of the terrace area above a residence. Furthermore, because of their low energy usage, fixed solar PV mounting systems are better to put in residences. The industry will develop as long as technology continues to progress and consumers continue to favor solar panel mounting solutions due to cheaper electricity costs.
