Business Challenge

The client is a solar panel manufacturer based out of the United Kingdom. The client was looking to expand to the US solar energy industry. However, before investing huge capital into the project, the client wanted to gain detailed insights into the US solar energy market. Also, before expanding into the new market, they wanted to understand the challenges facing the US solar energy industry and overcome them by devising value maximization strategies.

Other key challenges faced by the US solar energy industry were:

Solar energy industry challenge #1 

International competition and legality: The client noted that dealing with international competition and legal compliance were major challenges faced by solar panel suppliers in the US. Therefore, the client wanted to understand the changing laws and policies in the US energy market that could impact their growth.

Solar energy industry challenge #2

Need for modernizing grid infrastructure: This was another challenge faced by solar panel manufacturers. The client, therefore, wanted to identify the latest technologies and innovations implemented by the key player in the US solar energy industry. By doing so, they wanted to make improvements in their grid infrastructure by using technologies, equipment, and controls.

Solar energy industry challenge #3

Supply-demand challenges: As the solar panel installation began to grow in the US market, many leading solar panel suppliers started producing solar panels in huge quantity. This eventually created an oversupply of solar panels. Also, with this supply-demand mismatch, major solar panel manufacturers witnessed a huge decline in their net profit margins. The client, therefore, did not wish to take a chance. By understanding the market dynamism and requirements, they wanted to better manage production and supply.
