Solar tracker market size was valued at $8.9 billion in 2021, and is estimated to reach $16.0 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 6.1% from 2022 to 2031. Solar tracker is often used to optimize the energy output from solar panels. Solar panels are always pointed directly at the sun, owing to its mechanism solar panel tracks daily rotation of sun from east to west. It enhances solar irradiation received by solar-energy collector and helps in increasing output of electricity that is generated.
Solar tracker possesses various properties such as it offers minimal wind resistance and provides electrical and thermal stability. Hence, owing to such functionalities, it is extensively used for residential, commercial, agriculture, and other purposes such as in on-grid for roofs of houses, traffic signals, street lights, cottages, and small power plants.

The market is primarily driven by expanding global demand for energy, growing environmental awareness, and depletion of fossil fuels. Demand for solar trackers is expected to increase during the forecast period as a result of growing government initiatives in nations such as the U.S., India, and China to shift to solar energy. In addition, it is anticipated that solar tracker companies would benefit from new growth prospects brought on by ongoing product innovations in solar technology as well as growing usage of IoT and artificial intelligence.
Increase in steel costs further raises cost of these tracking systems, which are employed in majority of utility-scale projects. This is one of the main reasons impeding growth of the solar tracker market. Steel often accounts for more than 65% of the entire cost of solar tracking systems, making them more expensive. Moreover, installation of a solar tracking system is more expensive overall than placing regular solar panels, which hinders its use in residential areas where energy demand is less. This factor is estimated to hamper the solar tracker market growth.

Development of solar trackers for unusual settings, such as capped landfills, has been identified as the main trend in the global market for solar trackers. Solar trackers are typically fixed on posts that are hammered into the ground or on posts with ballast. In addition, factors such as growing manufacturing industry, availability of feedstock at reduced prices, and arrival of local players has led manufacturers to offer solar trackers at low prices. This factor is expected to create remunerative opportunities for expansion of the solar tracker market in the future.
