Outdoor participation is rising across the world. In the United States, 181.1 million people took part in outdoor activities in 2024, representing nearly 58.6 percent of the population. More people are spending longer periods away from traditional power access.
This rise in off grid recreation aligns with major advances in solar technology, as crystalline silicon cells now reach 23 to 27 percent efficiency according to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, compared to 15 to 18 percent a decade ago. Growing participation in outdoor activities combined with higher solar efficiency has shifted portable solar panels from simple backup chargers to reliable primary power sources for long trips and off grid living
According to Kings Research, the global portable solar panel market is projected to grow from USD 1,434.0 million in 2024 to USD 4,428.9 million by 2031, exhibiting a CAGR of 17.48% during the forecast period.
