Market Overview:
The global rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) installation market is expected to grow at a CAGR of over 13% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for renewable energy sources and government initiatives and subsidies for rooftop solar PV installations. Based on type, the global rooftop solar PV installation market is segmented into crystalline silicon and thin film. Crystalline silicon is expected to account for a larger share of the market in terms of revenue in 2018. However, thin film is anticipated to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period owing to its lower cost as compared with crystalline silicon technology. Based on application, non-residential sector accounted for majority of the total rooftop solar PV installation in 2017; however, residential sector is projected to witness highest growth rate during forecast period due rising awareness about benefits associated with installing rooftop solar PV systems in residential buildings such as reduced electricity bills.

Product Definition:
A rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) installation is a system of solar panels placed on the roof of a building to convert sunlight into electrical energy. The importance of rooftop solar PV installations is that they can help businesses and homeowners reduce their reliance on fossil fuels for energy, and they also provide environmental benefits by reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Crystalline Silicon:
Crystalline silicon is the most widely used type of solar cell. It accounts for over 80% of the overall market volume and is expected to continue its dominance in terms of share over monocrystalline and polycrystalline during the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to factors such as low manufacturing cost, high conversion efficiency, easy installation process, and superior performance under various environmental conditions.
Thin Film:
Thin film is a very small layer of semiconductor material, which is applied on the solar cell. It reduces the overall weight of the solar module and increases its efficiency by absorbing sunlight more effectively. The thin film market size was valued at USD 1,252 million in 2015 and is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to growing demand for lightweight materials in order to improve module performance.
Application Insights:
The non-residential segment dominated the global rooftop solar PV installation market in 2017, accounting for more than 60.0% share of the total revenue. The growth can be attributed to rapid industrialization and urbanization in emerging economies such as China, India and Brazil. These countries are witnessing huge potential for non-residential construction projects that use renewable energy sources, which is further driving demand for rooftop solar PV installations across the globe.
The residential segment is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to increasing government support towards promoting renewable energy generation sources within homes or on rooftops.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2016 with a share of over 40%. The region is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to favorable government policies, increasing electricity prices, and rising awareness about renewable energy generation. China accounted for more than 50% of the regional market share in 2016 owing to its large population and rapid urbanization.
The Middle East & Africa is expected to grow at a significant rate from 2017 to 2030 due North African solar industry capacity addition plans along with growing PV installations across major cities such as Dubai, Dakar, and Casablanca among others.
North America emerged as one of the most promising regions on account of growing PV installations across U.S.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for electricity due to population growth and rising standards of living
- Government policies and regulations supporting rooftop solar PV installation
- Reduction in the cost of rooftop solar PV systems, making them more affordable for consumers
- Growing awareness about the benefits of rooftop solar PV among consumers and businesses
- Advances in technology that make rooftop solar PV systems more efficient and reliable
