How big is the solar industry in 2023?

By Jenny Chase, Solar, BloombergNEF The photovoltaic industry added about 444 gigawatts of new capacity in 2023, a 76% growth on 2022 build. Prices of solar modules are at record lows, and supply of components is plentiful. End-user markets are booming while manufacturers struggle to make a profit. Installations this year will top 520GW.

How has solar power changed over time?

Both are measured on logarithmic scales, and the trend follows a straight line. That means the fall in cost has been exponential. Costs have fallen by around 20% every time the global cumulative capacity doubles. Over four decades, solar power has transformed from one of the most expensive electricity sources to the cheapest in many countries.

Will the solar market fall in 2023?

End-user markets are booming while manufacturers struggle to make a profit. Installations this year will top 520GW. Yet again, forecasts for solar build have proven too conservative. China alone added 216.9GW (AC) or 268GW (DC) in 2023, 60% of the world market, and we do not expect it to fall.
