The US residential solar photovoltaic (PV) installation grew from fewer than 100 firms in 2000 to about 3000 firms by 2016. The rapid expansion of this emerging industry prompts questions about the installation industry's market structure, such as how market shares are distributed among installers and how interinstaller competition affects PV deployment. This article leverages a rich dataset to describe trends in the evolution of the US residential PV installation industry. The data show that most residential PV installers are relatively small companies, with about half of installers installing fewer than 5 systems. At the same time, a subset of high‐volume installers have accumulated market share, especially from 2010 to 2016. Causes of this recent market concentration are explored, with an emphasis on the role of the emergence of alternative customer financing options in the United States.

2000年至2016年美国住宅太阳能光伏装置市场结构趋势：不断发展的行业

美国住宅太阳能光伏（PV）装置的数量从2000年的不到100家增加到2016年的约3000家。这一新兴行业的迅速发展引发了对安装行业市场结构的质疑，例如，市场份额如何在安装者之间分配和分配。安装人员之间的竞争如何影响PV部署。本文利用丰富的数据集来描述美国住宅光伏安装行业的发展趋势。数据显示，大多数住宅光伏安装商都是相对较小的公司，大约一半的安装商安装的系统少于5个。同时，特别是从2010年到2016年，一小部分大批量安装程序已积累了市场份额。探讨了这种近期市场集中的原因，
