The U.S. solar market has been dented by low electricity prices, high borrowing costs and a new metering reform in California, the country's largest solar market. SolarEdge expects third-quarter revenue to average between $880 million and $920 million, compared with analysts' estimates of $1.05 billion, according to Refinitiv data. U.S. solar revenue, however, decreased 23% compared with the last quarter.
