The global building-integrated photovoltaics market size is expected to reach USD 89.8 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 21.2% during the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The rapid expansion of the solar photovoltaic (PV) installation capacities of different countries, coupled with increasing demand for renewable energy sources, is expected to drive the growth of the market across the world. The rising consumer awareness coupled with the product’s superior performance over the last decade has primarily driven the market for building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV).
The crystalline silicon segment led the market in 2023 and had a market share of 70.9%. The crystalline silicon segment was the dominant segment in 2023 which is attributed to the high strength of crystalline silicon BIPV coupled with superior resistance to adverse weather conditions. This segment is driven by declining prices of crystalline silicon cells, which is expected to lower the installation cost in the coming years.
Favorable government legislations, coupled with the unilateral obligation of countries such as Germany, Italy, France, the UK, the U.S., China, Japan, and India to the Kyoto Protocol, designated to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, are also expected to promote the growth of the market in the coming years.
In application, roof installations led the market with a market share of 66.9% in 2023. Photovoltaics integrated with building roofs are known to exhibit efficiency due to improved incidence of light on the roof surface. The development of interlocking roof systems that use interlocked tiles, which provide a high conversion efficiency and a significant reduction in the weight of building integrated roofs, is likely to drive the market over the forecast period.
Based on the end-user, the residential segment led the BIPV market in 2023 and had a market share of 34.7%. The demand for BIPV in residential establishments is likely to grow owing to increasing awareness regarding the use of renewable sources of energy for electricity generation among consumers. In addition, increasing adoption of integrated solutions by residential areas in Germany and France is expected to drive product demand over the forecast period.
The demand for BIPV installations is anticipated to be fueled by the improvements observed in their operational efficiency. In addition, the growing affinity of multinationals toward the adoption of environment-friendly energy sources is likely to have a positive impact on the BIPV market.
