Solar PV has become, and will continue to be for the next few years, the fastest growing technology in the U.S. energy industry. The U.S. residential solar power market has grown during the last three years as a consequence of rising energy prices, volatile fuel costs, and government incentives for renewable energy. The present research service analyzes the U.S. residential solar power market, providing investment and installed capacity forecasts. Market challenges, drivers, and restraints are identified in the service. Further, the service considers both technology and financial trends for this market. The study period is 2008 to 2016, with a base year of 2011.
