The IEA-PVPS 2025 Snapshot of Global PV Markets reveals a pivotal moment for solar power: global PV capacity surpassed 2.2 TW, with more than 600 GW installed in 2024 alone. As module prices fell due to oversupply, installation volumes continued to grow, highlighting both the strength and volatility of the global PV industry.
The general trend towards electrification of heating, transport and industry creates additional demand for renewable electricity, including solar. The annual growth rate of the photovoltaic market is expected to be around 20% for 2025.
The global installed solar photovoltaic capacity exceeded 2.2 TWp at the end of 2024, doubling in less than three years. The number of countries installing 1 GWp per year or more has increased to 36. After the 2022 price spike for solar photovoltaic hardware and battery storage, prices in both markets continued to decrease in 2024.

After the 2022 price spike for solar photovoltaic hardware and battery storage, prices in both markets continued to decrease in 2024. Levelised costs of electricity for non-tracking solar photovoltaic systems as well as levelised cost of battery storage reached new lows.
Investments in solar photovoltaics even grew by 20.5% to reach USD 514 billion and resulted in the installation of new photovoltaic systems with almost 600 GWp. The global installed solar photovoltaic capacity exceeded 2.2 TWp at the end of 2024, doubling in less than three years.
Together solar PV and wind are expected to provide 41% of the total electricity production in 2030. This development can be observed globally, even if the pace of renewable energy deployment is varying from country to country as well as the technology mix. Looking at the WEO predictions over the last years, two key observations emerge.
The project, invested and constructed by China Energy Engineering Group Co., (CEEC), has set three world records in terms of single-unit power, storage capacity, and energy conversion efficiency.
A compressed air energy storage (CAES) project in Hubei, China, has come online, with 300MW/1,500MWh of capacity. The 5-hour duration project, called Hubei Yingchang, was built in two years with a total investment of CNY1.95 billion (US$270 million) and uses abandoned salt mines in the Yingcheng area of Hubei, China's sixth-most populous province.
A state-backed consortium is constructing China's first large-scale compressed air energy storage (CAES) project using a fully artificial underground cavern, marking a major step in the technology's commercialization.
As of June 2025, PSH is the earliest and largest form of energy storage in Canada. 8 In Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES), air is compressed and stored in underground structures like mines, aquifers, salt caverns or old oil reservoirs, or in aboveground pressure vessels.
In Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES), air is compressed and stored in underground structures like mines, aquifers, salt caverns or old oil reservoirs, or in aboveground pressure vessels. When electricity is needed, the air is released to power a turbine and generate electricity.
Designated as a pilot project under China's National Energy Administration's new energy storage initiative, the Xinyang facility pioneers an innovative air-sealing approach for artificial underground storage, offering a significant boost to the commercialization of CAES technology in China.
The projects are identified as Pumped Storage Hydropower (PSH), Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES), and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), shown by coloured markers across the map. Blue markers represent the PSH projects, orange markers represent CAES projects, and purple markers represent the BESS projects.
Summary: Discover the leading enterprises shaping global energy storage and photovoltaic trade. This analysis explores ranking criteria, market trends, and strategic insights for businesses navigating renewable energy exports.
From 1 April 2026, export tax rebates of as much as 13% on solar products will be rolled back, while rebate rates on battery goods will be cut to 6% from 9%, with full phase-out scheduled on 1 January 2027, according to a joint announcement by the Ministry of Finance and the State.
Export License: Photovoltaic modules themselves generally do not require an export license, but if they involve energy storage components such as lithium-ion batteries, it is necessary to check the "Export License Management Goods Catalog (2025)".
Key compliance requirements typically include proper documentation of origin certificates, import/export licenses, and adherence to international quality standards such as ISO 9001 and IEC certifications specific to photovoltaic equipment.

International trade policies shape the global solar photovoltaic (PV) landscape through complex networks of tariffs, regulations, and bilateral agreements that significantly impact market dynamics and industry growth.
International trade policies significantly influence manufacturing costs and investment returns throughout the solar PV supply chain. Tariffs and trade barriers can increase component prices by 10-30%, directly impacting module costs and project viability.
As governments worldwide accelerate their transition to renewable energy, the role of trade policies in determining the success of solar PV deployment has become more pronounced, making it essential for industry participants to develop comprehensive strategies that account for evolving regulatory frameworks and market conditions.
Regional trade agreements significantly shape the global solar PV market through preferential tariffs and standardized regulations. The European Union's Solar Alliance and the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Renewable Energy Partnership stand out as influential frameworks that facilitate cross-border solar technology trade.
The implementation of measures such as anti-dumping duties, local content requirements, and technology transfer provisions continues to influence supply chains, pricing strategies, and market access in the global solar PV industry.
International PV module prices, driven by Chinese averages, will likely rise from $0. 11/W by the end of 2025 and potentially $0. 13/W by 2027, says Clean Energy Associates (CEA), noting that heterojunction and back-contact technologies now make up 12% of global module capacity.
