The total corporate funding in the global solar sector saw an 11% increase year-on-year at $109.4 billion in the first half of 2019. More than $2.6 trillion has been invested in renewable energy over the past decade.
According to a study made by Bloomberg New Energy Finance (BNEF) in 2018, almost 4 GW of battery storage systems went online, and by 2020 this number could double, as market research experts predict. Lithium-ion batteries dominate the PV-plus-storage market.
Global solar power capacity increased by more than 25 times in this decade, from almost 23 GW at the beginning of 2010 to 617.9 GW anticipated by the end of 2020. Overall investment in the MENA energy sector could reach $1 trillion by 2023, with the power sector accounting for the largest share of the spending at 36%.
Overall investment in the MENA energy sector could reach $1 trillion by 2023, with the power sector accounting for the largest share of the spending at 36%. As the unit rate for solar energy investment is reducing year-on-year, a decrease in capital does not represent a slowdown in the industry (Figure 2).
This trend will continue to increase as solar power prices reach grid parity. In 2019, the global estimated additions of solar photovoltaic (PV) reached almost 138 GW (Figure 1). Within the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, the increased industrial activity and drive towards renewables is reflected in each country’s strategy.
It is expected that stationary battery storage market size will surpass $170 billion by 2030, according to Global Market Insights. Furthermore, The GCC countries’ grid interconnectivity is expected to generate US$ 33 billion in investments, economic and energy savings over the next 25 years.
