United States Solar Energy Market Introduction and Overview
According to SPER Market Research, the United States Solar Energy Market is estimated to reach USD XX billion by 2033 with a CAGR 16.75%.
The report includes an in-depth analysis of the United States Solar Energy Market, including market size and trends, product mix, distribution channels, and supplier analysis. The term "solar energy" describes the energy derived from solar radiation, which can be captured and transformed into a variety of energy forms, including heat and electricity. This energy is a desirable substitute for conventional fossil fuels, which are limited and contribute to climate change. It is also abundant and renewable. Many methods can be used to capture solar energy. For example, photovoltaic cells use sunlight to produce electricity directly, while concentrated solar power systems use the sun's heat to produce electricity or hot water for a variety of uses.
- A solar power purchase agreement (PPA) was signed by Atlas Renewable Energy and Albras in April 2023. As per the terms of the contract, Atlas will supply Albras with solar-generated power for the next twenty-one years. Solar electricity will be provided by the 902 MW Vista Alegre Photovoltaic Project. In 2025, the facility located in Minas Gerais, Southeastern Brazil, is scheduled to start up.
- April 2023: Masdar strengthened its position in the US by purchasing a 50% share from EDF Renewables North America in a solar and battery storage project. A 40MW battery energy storage system and a 128MW solar installation make up the Big Beau project in California. It is one of eight projects that Masdar and EDF Renewables have decided to work together on, totaling 1.6 GW in capacity.
Market Opportunities and Challenges
Opportunities: The increase in energy consumption brought on by a population boom is the main factor propelling the expansion of the global solar energy market. Additionally, there has been a global upsurge in demand for sustainable energy resources, and this need has been fueled by supportive government laws that have expanded the market. These rules assist in reducing environmental pollution and emphasize a decreased reliance on fossil fuels. Consequently, this increases consumer demand for sustainable energy sources like solar power. Furthermore, the market for solar energy is anticipated to rise due to the decrease in carbon emissions and the increased demand for inexpensive energy production.
Challenges: Throughout the projected period, rising natural gas consumption and the implementation of alternative clean energy sources are anticipated to impede the market's expansion. Nevertheless, elements including the high price of power conversion, storage, and installation as well as the low efficiency of solar modules are anticipated to impede the market's expansion.
Market Competitive Landscape
The solar energy market in the US is dispersed. M. A. Mortenson Company, First Solar Inc., NextEra Energy Inc., SOLV Energy, and 8minutenergy Renewables LLC are a few of the major participants.

COVID-19 Impact on United States Solar Energy Market
The US market for solar energy has been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak. Although the industry had been expanding quickly before the epidemic, supply chain hiccups, project delays, and unstable economic conditions have hampered the pace of growth. Both the installation of new solar installations and the upkeep of existing ones were hampered by the personnel shortages and logistical difficulties brought on by the lockdown measures and limitations put in place to stop the virus's spread. Additionally, finance for solar projects has been hampered by a decline in consumer spending and reluctance to make investments. Nevertheless, despite the difficulties, some encouraging things have happened.
