Posted by rahul nikade on August 5th, 2022

Floating Solar Panels Industry Overview

The global floating solar panels market size is expected to reach USD 180.21 million by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is expected to expand at a CAGR of 22.5% from 2022 to 2030. The technical aspect of floating solar technology is projected to observe substantial growth over the estimated period owing to the growing demand for dependable renewable sources of energy for power generation. In addition, the reduction in land-related costs is likely to boost the demand over the forecast period. The stationary floating solar panels segment led the market in 2021. The segment is expected to keep its leading position over the forecast period. Stationary floating solar panels do not take up land area and are easy to install. These panels can be deployed easily on a body of water, such as a reservoir or a lake.

Floating Solar Panels Market Segmentation

Grand View Research has segmented the global floating solar panels market based on product and region:

Based on the Product Insights, the market is segmented into Tracking Floating Solar Panels, Stationary Floating Solar Panels.

• The stationary floating solar panels segment led the market and accounted for a share of 80.42% of the global revenue in 2021.
• Stationary floating solar panels can be deployed easily on a body of water, such as a reservoir or a lake. Stationary floating solar panels also double as shades for the water body, which reduces the evaporation of water.
• Due to the use of low-cost, high-strength elastic in the construction of the panels, the cost of installing a stationary floating solar panel is cheaper than that of installing a tracking floating solar panel.
• Growing expenditures in the manufacturing and installation of solar panels in developing countries are expected to enhance demand in the coming years due to the stable, lasting, and dependable nature of solar tracking technology with lower maintenance costs.
• Tracking solar panels are very competitive due to their ability to follow the sun, increasing the system’s operating output. Due to its higher operational productivity, tracking solar technology is projected to gain traction in floating solar farms, which will have a beneficial impact on demand.
• Solar tracking technology is more efficient as compared to its counterpart; stationery panels are preferred over solar tracking panels owing to the high cost associated with the product.
• However, the growing research & development investments by manufacturers are expected to bring down the maintenance cost, which, in turn, is expected to drive market growth over the next nine years.
• The solar tracking technology is expected to grow at a faster rate as compared to its counterpart in developed economies on account of its high-performance efficiency.
