By Jenny Chase, Lead Analyst, Solar, BloombergNEF The global PV industry is expected to install 592 gigawatts of modules this year, up 33% from the boom year of 2023. Low prices for modules are stimulating demand in new markets, but hurting manufacturers, who are competing intensely to maintain market share.
Low prices for modules are stimulating demand in new markets, but hurting manufacturers, who are competing intensely to maintain market share. The global PV build forecast is up 1% quarter-on-quarter, largely due to developments in India and Pakistan, with installations slower than previously expected in Japan and South Africa.
Expectations for the solar year 2024 Prices for all solar module types fell slightly again at the end of 2023 but that is the last time it could happen for a while and applies only to current European stock. Even panels currently in transit to Europe are being offered at prices €0.01 to €0.02 per watt higher.
