New build applications will also see demand growth going forward as builders in California install solar roofing to meet building code requirements for structures to use zero net energy – generating as much energy as they consume.
The West is projected to be the leading regional market in the US for solar roofing in both the short and long terms, accounting for almost 75% of the market total in 2022 and 80% of demand in 2037. According to analyst Matt Zielenski, this is not surprising, given the:
efforts of construction professionals to comply with the CALGreen zero net energy standards for most structures
widespread use of solar products in California
favorable climate conditions – states in the Southwestern US receive substantially more sunlight per day than in any other part of the US
commitment of state and local political leaders in the region to mitigate the effects of climate change by promoting electricity generation by renewable sources (such as solar)
