Renewable Energy - Solar Thermal and Photovoltaics Market Report - UK 2011-2015 Analysis
AMA Research, Nov 2011, Pages: 77
AMA Research are pleased to announce the publication of Renewable Energy-Solar Thermal and Photovoltaics Market Report – UK 2011-2020 Analysis.
Since the introduction of Feed in Tariffs, the UK market for Solar Thermal and PV systems has expanded rapidly, with 2011 experiencing exponential growth and resulting in changes to tariff support levels.
The report contains:
MARKET OVERVIEW – market size for solar thermal and PV systems, review of key market influences and analysis of current developments.
KEY MARKET DRIVERS & BARRIERS TO GROWTH.
REVIEW OF SUPPLY AND DISTRIBUTION STRUCTURE.
FORECASTS FOR MARKET DEVELOPMENTS UP TO 2020 – volumes/product and sector mix.
Solar thermal and PV systems are a well accepted technology in many European countries, but overall volume demand is still relatively low in the UK – though has grown strongly in 2010/11. Leading players are a mix of specialists in solar systems, or parts of major groups involved in the heating industry. In the medium term, capacity will need to increase - not only in terms of production, but also in terms of installation capability to meet demand projections, though 2010/11 has seen the emergence of many new entrants into the sector.
Areas of particular interest include:
- UK market development compared with activity in key European markets.
- Impact of FIT’s (Feed in Tariffs) on demand for Solar PV in particular – exponential growth in 2011
- Other Government incentives to stimulate developments in the renewable energy sector.
- Overview of market drivers and barriers to growth in UK – key opportunities and constraints.
- Emergence of new entrants and routes to market in 2010/11
- Residential sector overview - new build, self build, etc.
- Market forecasts up to 2020 – volumes, key sectors, tariff changes etc.
Key areas of coverage in the report include:-
