Crystalline Silicon PV segment is expected to dominate the South Africa Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Market in the forecast period
Growing awareness of less carbon
emissions & increasing number of solar projects nationally are the factors fueling
the South Africa Solar
Photovoltaic (PV) Market expansion in the forecast period.
According to TechSci Research report,
“South Africa Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Market - By Region, Competition Forecast
and Opportunities, 2028,” the South Africa Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Market
is expected to register a high CAGR in the forecast period. The market
is growing since the nation is moving towards less carbon emission plan, due to
which companies are investing in the Market.
For instance, in October 2021, the South African government procured
about 13 ground-mounted solar projects in the fifth round of tenders for the
Renewable Energy Independent Power Procurement Program (REIPPPP). The 13
ground-mounted solar projects have an output of 75 MW each and a total capacity
of 975 MW. Also in 2022, Cennergi (Pty) Ltd announced that it has received
approval from the South African National Energy Regulatory Authority (NERSA) to
develop the 80MW Solar Project. Cennergi is developing a solar power project
that can provide better energy security for mining operations in the country.

South Africa Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Market
is divided into type, end user, grid type, deployment, region and competitive
landscape. Based on Type, the market is segmented into Crystalline Silicon and
Thin Film. Based on End User, the market is segmented into Residential, Commercial,
and Industrial (C&I), and Utility. Based on Grid Type, the market is
segmented into On-grid and Off-grid. By Deployment, the market is segmented
into Ground-mounted and Rooftop. Based on region, the market is
segmented into Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal, Western Cape, Eastern Cape,
Mpumalanga, Limpopo, Northwest, Free State, Northern Cape.
Based on Type, the market is segmented
into Crystalline Silicon and Thin Film. Crystalline silicon PV modules are
manufactured by combining crystalline silicon cells (c-Si) and are the most
widely used photovoltaic technology and Crystalline silicon PV segment is
expected to dominate in the forecast period. There are two types of silicon
cells used in manufacturing crystalline silicon modules: Mono-crystalline
silicon and Polycrystalline silicon. Usually, a monocrystalline panel contains
60 or 72 solar cells, depending on the size of the panel. Most residential
installations use 60-cell monocrystalline silicon panels. These solar panels
usually have the highest power capacity and efficiency out of all types of
solar panels. The efficiencies of these panels can range from 17 to 22%
Based on End User, the market is
segmented into Residential, Commercial, and Industrial (C&I), and Utility. However,
during the forecast period, the residential sector's share is expected to
increase due to lower costs of solar power generation and government-supported
programs such as the National Solar Water Heater Program for the country's
residential sector. In addition, the Department of Natural Resources and Energy
will strengthen its national electrification program to bring electricity to as
many parts of the country as possible, which will have a positive impact on the
growth of the residential solar photovoltaic (PV) market in South Africa.
A photovoltaic (PV) module is a
small-scale embedded power generation (SSEG) system that is mounted on the roof
of a residential building and converts solar energy into usable electrical
powers. An inverter then converts this from direct current (DC) to usable
alternating current (AC). Owing to this the South Africa Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Market is anticipated to grow in
the forecast period.
By Deployment, the market is segmented
into Ground-mounted and Rooftop. Ground-mounted is expected to dominate the
market, with the largest market share. The Ground-mounted system is usually
used for large scale solar energy projects. The Photovoltaic array contains solar modules held in place by frames or
racks attached to ground (earth) based
mounting support.

” South Africa relies primarily on coal
for its energy needs, resulting in high carbon emissions. For instance,
according to the Energy Information Agency (EIA) and the Electricity Supply
Board, in 2021 approximately 84.3% of the country's electricity was coal-generated.
Additionally, the South African government has taken the lead in developing
renewable energy from independent generators to reduce the country's reliance
on coal-fired power plants and meet the growing demand for electricity. Owing
to which the demand for Solar Photovoltaics (PV) is expanding day by day” Mr.
Karan Chechi, Research Director with TechSci Research, a research-based Global
