EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Solar energy, which is renewable, widely available and clean, provides enough energy to meet the world’s annual consumption needs every 50 minutes. There are two major technologies that have been developed to harness the solar energy. Solar power is broadly classified into two: Thermal and Photovoltaic. Thermal power is further categorized into low-temperature solar thermal power and concentrated solar power.

Different types of solar panels serve different needs and purposes. Manufacturers generally use one of three processes to produce solar panels: Monocrystalline, Polycrystalline and Thin Film.

Solar power by end user could be divided into Residential and Commercial or Residential, Non Residential and Utility. There are three main types of residential solar electric power systems: grid inter-tied; grid inter-tied with battery backup; and off-grid. These three broad types vary in how closely connected they are to the traditional power utility infrastructure, known as the grid.

The US residential solar power market has increased at a significant CAGR during the years 2010-2017 and projections are made that the market would rise in the next four years i.e. 2018-2022 tremendously.

The residential solar power market is expected to increase due to declining cost of solar equipment, favourable Federal and state policy, depleting conventional sources, etc. Yet the market faces some challenges such climatic issues associated with solar panels, lack of awareness, etc.
