Government policies in China have shaped the global supply, demand and price of solar PV over the last decade. Chinese industrial policies focusing on solar PV as a strategic sector and on growing domestic demand have enabled economies of scale and supported continuous innovation throughout the supply chain.
Declining costs of PV module production have made solar installations more affordable globally. Source: abriendomundo/Shutterstock.com. The global solar photovoltaic (PV) module market has been growing at pace and is projected to rise to $133.12bn in market value by 2028, according to Power Technology ’s parent company, GlobalData.
In all areas: electricity generation growth, installed capacity growth, and cost competitiveness, solar PV domination is now overwhelming. And solar PV takeover is accompanied by the timely meteoric rise of battery storage, which cumulative installed capacity likely overtook that of pumped hydro storage last year.
