Solar Rooftop Market Is Set To Reach USD 359.01 Billion By 2033, Growing At A CAGR Of 20.5

Key Insights

The Solar Rooftop Market size was valued at USD 97.32 USD Billion in 2023 and is projected to reach USD 359.01 USD Billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 20.5 % during the forecast period. A solar rooftop system is a photovoltaic system that is installed on rooftops of buildings and it generates electricity from sunlight. These systems are available in different categories; grid-connected, stand-alone, and grid-connected/stand-alone. Utility-connected systems on the other hand are connected to the national grid whereby excess power is put back to the grid. Independent systems use batteries for storage which applies to rural settings. Hybrid systems comprise both fixed and variable but with a combination of the two to ensure that the needed outcomes are achieved. Some of the qualities of roof-integrated solar systems include efficiency, and durability and they require little maintenance. Both are employed in residential, commercial, and industrial settings to cut costs of energy, encourage the use of clean sources of power, and meet environmental standards.
