Solar Thermal Market Growth Drivers
- High penetration of renewable energy: The solar thermal market is to a great extent marked by high penetration of renewable energy solutions. Solar thermal systems account for about 15% of the overall solar energy market. Different governmental incentives in forms such as tax credits and rebates have installed the devices in residential sectors by about 20% in the last five years.
- Affordability of solar energy: Solar thermal technologies have become affordable for customers as their prices have fallen by about 40% since 2010.
- Increasing demand for renewable energy source-based heating applications in both residential and commercial sectors, coupled with reduced energy costs by way of self-energy generation, is thus likely to drive the solar thermal market share in the forthcoming years. Much like district heating, the prevalence of natural gas competition is poised to stall the solar thermal market growth shortly.
- Most nations have set targets for green energy: Therefore, recently the trend of using solar thermal energy has increased in all regions. In the market of solar thermal installation, Asia Pacific dominated the market, where China had major share in that. China installed the highest number of installations in history, and it also has a strong strategy for installation that will be executed within the prediction period. The key drivers for regional growth will be plans for rural electrification, the deployment of green energy targets by major countries, population expansion, and increasing demand for clean energy.
Solar Thermal Market Future Trends
- market development: It also considers the residential segment to grow at a leading pace throughout the solar thermal market forecast period since the installation of solar district heating plants is growing across geographies. This would mean loads of opportunities for market development in the case of solar heating systems for industrial process heat introduction. Many companies have already tested the commercial viability of solar heating systems for commercial and industrial sectors. The best example is the Solar Payback Project initiated by the German solar association Bundesverband Solarwirtschaft e. V. It has lately helped four countries pave the way for using Solar Heat for Industrial Processes: South Africa, Brazil, Mexico, and India. because solar district heating plant installations are increasing globally, the residential segment is anticipated to dominate the market over the forecast period.
- commercial and industrial sectors expansion: There are a ton of prospects for market expansion with the introduction of solar heating systems for industrial processes. The commercial viability of solar heating systems in the commercial and industrial sectors has been successfully tested by numerous businesses. The Solar Payback Project, which was started by the German solar association Bundesverband Solarwirtschaft e. V., is the best example. It recently encouraged the use of Solar Heat for Industrial Processes (SHIP) in four nations: South Africa, Brazil, Mexico, and India.
- Advancements in Solar Thermal Technologies: Innovations in Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) systems, improved thermal storage solutions, and advanced materials for solar collectors are enhancing efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
Solar Thermal Market Opportunities
- emerging economies: Emerging economies present a great opportunity wherein regions like Africa have reported 25% annual growth in the installation of solar thermal installations on account of increasing energy needs. This can be furthered through collaborative efforts by the company along with local governments in propagating the use of solar thermal installations.
- Sustainability As differentiator: with the increasing interest among consumers in sustainability, the products focusing on eco-friendliness and energy efficiency will differentiate companies in this competitive market.
- Hybrid Renewable Systems: Integration of solar thermal with other renewable sources, such as biomass or wind, offers opportunities to develop hybrid systems that can ensure continuous energy supply.
