Solar Farms Market Scope and Segmentation

Market Definition

Solar farms are locations with plenty of solar panels set up to gather solar energy and produce power. These are distinct from rooftop solar and commercial solar power systems and are made up of widely dispersed, ground-mounted panels deployed to supply electricity to buildings, commercial buildings, and electric grids.

 Global Solar Farms Market Dynamics

Driver

• Beneficial Features of Solar farms

The shingles are adaptable and durable, which further adds to their attractiveness and enables them to be employed on a range of buildings The CIGS thin-film solar farm is drawing more interest from homeowners because it is portable, adaptable, and flexible. The solar farms also further eliminate the necessity for a large installation area that traditional solar panels require. These elements are anticipated to have a positive impact on the expansion of the global market for solar farms. They can mix in with an old or new roof because they are more flexible and lower in weight. As a result, these benefits offered by solar farms further accelerates their demand, thus propelling the overall market growth.

Opportunity

• Implementation of Favourable Government Regulations

The implementation of government regulations to promote production of energy from renewable sources to reduce dependency on fossil fuels and to minimize the emission of pollutants are estimated to further extend profitable opportunities to the market players in the forecast period of 2023 to 2030. The government has enacted policies including net metering and community solar, according to the U.S. Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA), to encourage the use of photovoltaic technology to produce power.

Restraint/Challenge

• High Installation Costs

Solar farms require huge costs to install the solar panels. As per the estimates, within US, the price to install a solar panel approximately ranges from US$ 10,000 to US$ 15,000, and the price to install a solar farm will further require many solar panels, which is further estimated to increase the installation costs for the solar farms. This is anticipated to have a negative impact on the global market for solar farms during the forecast period since high costs further creates affordability issues.
