Overview of the global solar charge controllers market
Market research analysts at Technavio predict that the global solar charge controllers market will grow steadily during the forecast period and post a CAGR of around 16% by 2021. This market research analysis identifies the rise in solar energy installations as one of the major factors that will have a positive impact on the growth of this market. Governments across the world are taking initiatives to encourage the use of renewable resources such as solar power. Developed and developing nations are increasingly making use of the solar power for increasing the solar energy concentration in the energy mix and reduce their dependence on fossil fuel based-power generation. The growing awareness about the benefits of solar energy is leading to the rise in the number of solar projects around the globe. This rise in solar energy consumption will consequently propel the demand for solar charge controller systems.
This market research report identifies the rise in deployment of microgrids as one of the key trends behind the growth of the solar charge controllers market. The growing population and rapid urbanization have driven the increase in power consumption and this has resulted in power outages and heavy loads during peak hours in many countries. The demand for off-grid energy storage systems is increasing due to inconsistent supply of power in rural areas in addition to the demand for charge controllers that provide various benefits during peak load sharing and power outages. The need to overcome challenges faced by traditional grids and to introduce a new level of sophistication in functioning have driven the need for microgrids that have proven to be more resilient to natural calamities than traditional grids and provide power to a limited geographic region when the main grid fails.
