Policy support re-ignites US solar thermal market

DUBLIN, IRELAND: Research and Markets has announced the addition of GlobalData's new report "Policy Support Re-ignites the US Solar Thermal Market" to its offering.

The US has good future prospects for solar thermal energy. Many solar thermal plants with high installed capacities are currently under construction and others are in various stages of planning.

California is the hub of most of the existing and expected solar thermal installations. This is mainly due to the inherent characteristic of its abundantly available sunny climate, which makes it the leading solar electricity generating state in the US.

Solar thermal owes much of its future growth in the US to the support and encouragement from individual state governments; this has led to a boost in the development of solar thermal energy. The reduction in production costs due to technological advancements and supportive government policies, such as federal tax credits, are expected to further contribute to the growth of the solar thermal market in the US.
