Global off-grid PV panels market was valued at USD1.8 billion in 2019. It is projected to grow at a compound annual rate (CAGR of 9.5%) between 2020 and 2027. This is due to the increasing demand for renewable energy. Market growth is expected to be driven by the proliferation of PV panel manufacturing businesses and increasing off-grid PV panel's capacity. Off-grid solar panels will drive the market to 2027, overcoming some of the drawbacks associated with traditional solar panel systems such as limited land availability and high installation costs. Market growth will be driven by tax benefits and government subsidies for off-grid PV panel installation, as well as rent benefits to reservoir owners.
The market growth will be influenced by the availability of water resources, such as rivers, canals and reservoirs. As the infrastructure for electricity generation and transport is well-developed, dam-reservoirs that are used for hydroelectric power can easily be used to generate off-grid solar energy. The working efficiency of PV cells is positively affected by a less dusty or arid environment.
The low maintenance and management costs associated with installing an off-grid PV panel are expected to drive product demand during the forecast period. To harness maximum energy and output, off-grid solar panels can be adjusted according to the sun's position. In remote areas, off-grid solar panels can also be used to promote self-sustaining infrastructure. Off-grid PV panels are more efficient and maintain a constant temperature, which helps to maintain the output.
The photovoltaic cells in the panels have a lower temperature variation which helps to increase their efficiency. Concentrating photovoltaic module use curved mirrored films that focus sunlight on a narrow line. This reduces the amount of silicon required and lowers the cost of solar panels.
Off-grid solar panels are expected to have a lower cost of production due to the use of less steel in their manufacture than conventional panels. High installation costs are expected to limit the growth of off-grid PV panels market over the forecast period.
Thin-film accounted for 39.9% of the market in 2019. Thin films are named so because they have thin layers of film on glass, stainless Steel or other flexible substrates. The film must be less than 1 micron thick. To protect the cells from damage and tampering, they are joined together to form a module. In 2019, the thin film segment was valued over USD 705.8 millions and is expected to grow strongly over the forecast period.
Crystalline Silicon is experiencing high demand and outperforming production capacity, which drives up prices. The market for crystalline silicon is forecast to grow at 8.7% CAGR over the forecast period.
With a market share exceeding 40.0% in 2019, the industrial segment was the dominant application segment. The industrial segment encompasses small, medium and large production, manufacturing facilities, construction premises and other sites. Due to the steady growth of the global economy and the increasing emphasis on renewable energy, the value of the commercial segment reached USD 536.3 million in 2019. At 10.5%, the residential segment will see the most growth during the forecast period. Consumers will prefer to opt out of utility contracts and choose to go off the grid, allowing them to fulfill their energy requirements. This is the reason for the rapid growth.
Due to the rapid development of and increased use of renewable energy sources, the U.S. market for off-grid PV panels is expected to reach USD 170.8 million in 2019. Despite the Federal Government's withdrawal from the Paris Agreement, the market for off grid solar PV panels is expected to grow despite the fact that there has been a growing awareness and financial incentives provided by the states.
Asia Pacific will also witness an increase in off-grid PV panel demand during the forecast period. This is due to countries like India, China, Japan and China taking steps to install these panels to satisfy their huge energy needs. Due to the increasing development activities in the region, energy consumption is expected to rise. Over the forecast period, Australia will be a major market for off-grid PV panels.
The competitive landscape is built on the superior performance and efficiency of off-grid solar panels as well as the ancillary services provided by vendors. Market growth will be aided by research and development as well as increased technological capabilities due to constant advancement of technology. This is combined with intense competition and increasing customer awareness. The market leaders in off-grid PV panels include:
