The Solar Carport Market comprises structures designed to provide shelter for vehicles while simultaneously supporting solar photovoltaic (PV) panels that generate renewable energy. Unlike traditional ground-mounted solar systems, solar carports offer the dual benefit of shading and power generation, making them ideal for commercial, residential, and industrial applications. As the global shift toward clean energy accelerates, solar carports are gaining traction due to their space efficiency, rising EV (electric vehicle) adoption, and increasing demand for onsite energy generation.
The global Solar Carport market generated USD 493.84 million revenue in 2023 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 10.07% from 2024 to 2033. The market is expected to reach USD 1,289.07 million by 2033.
